What Do We Mean by Environmental Graphics?

Environmental Graphics Design takes into consideration graphics, interior design, architecture, and landscape design to maximize the impact of your space.

We then create meaningful experiences for people in your space through storytelling, wayfinding, brand communication and donor recognition. Lettering and signs help result in branded space along with your custom signs. These designs are known as environmental graphics.

Putting the finishing touches on the environmental graphics in the auditorium of IBEW Local 58’s Zero New Energy in Detroit. The floor to ceiling wall graphics are all hand painted.

“As artwork is being hung on the walls alongside its interpretive panels, I want to thank you for an exceptional job producing the labels and signage for the exhibit, Rembrandt and the Face of Jesus. From the moment I sent print specifications, you and your staff were able to maintain the same quality work, attention to detail, and friendly demeanor normally associated with less stressful projects that allow greater budgets and far more time.”
