Project Description

The building of the Faculty of Physics is part of the urban and architectural concept created by KuryƂowicz & Associates. Among the impressive features of the building is its ground floor, which includes a library, lecture halls, two patios, cafeterias and administrative offices.

When starting work on the signage for this space, we set our sight on creating wayfinding system that would be original and unconventional in its form, readable by a wide range of potential users (students, professors, guests) and, in a way, evoke the most common associations with physics. Our design goal was to make this complex building friendly and accessible in spatial reception. We decided for visual references to technical drawings, experiments, diagrams, and activities from physics textbooks. We have created a set of original numbers, letters, and image graphics based on these assumptions. The design has been accompanied by a minimalist and functional typeface as well as an extensive set of icons.
