All building addresses and room numbers are set in Gara-
mond Premier Pro.
The use of the core graphic and lime green as well as the primary color will act as key elements
that will extend the existing brand.
This will be used to reflect energy, activity and artistic spirit directed towards visitors, new
students, and existing students, faculty and staff.
All materials will be pulled from the surrounding environment at KCAI and extending to both
interior and exterior identification.

Site Identier Campus Directory
Here, we have identified each of the buildings through the lime-green numbering system 1-18.
The purple dots for 4 site identifiers, pink dots for 18 directionals and orange dots for the 3
campus directories.
SITE IDENTIFIER
The site identifier is a large, silver metal structure of the core graphic.
This will be placed right through the main entrance to campus as a visitor parks in the designated
visitor parking and enters vanderslice.

BUILDING IDENTIFIER
The building identifiers will include the same large, silver metal structure of the core graphic.
The information itself will be seen on rusted metal and black plastic.
The sign will include a 6 inch inside panel that will have a lime-green light inside. This will give
the sign a luminous, green glow during dark hours.
Here, we have designed each building identifier for each of the 18 buildings on the KCAI campus
according to their location on the core graphic.
The sign itself will reach 14 feet and the number of the building will be at the top of the
hierarchical scale.
The building name will be seen second and address third in the lime-green color.
CAMPUS DIRECTORY
The campus directory will be placed next to the site identifier as the visitor walks up to
vanderslice
This will be one of 3 throughout the
campus.
DIRECTIONALS
Irving Building
Dodge Building

The directionals will be a 6 feet tall cantilever and keep the same visual consistency as the building
identifiers using the core graphic shape as the support that is planted in the ground.
This will include the same lime-green light on the inside of the sign so the sign is able to be read
during the nighttime.

Accessible Entrance
ACCESSIBLE ENTRANCE
The exterior accessible entrance identifier will be made from the rusted metal with a subtle core
graphic shape on the surface of the sign.
The street and speed limit traffic signs will use this same material and core graphic support that
reflects the KCAI identity.

direction to subtly reveal the core graphic shape.

the artistic spirit.
