Smithsonian American Art Museum

The LUCE Foundation Center for American Art and the LUNDER Center for Conservation in Washington D.C. were moving into a beautifully restored U.S Patent Office and needed a way to showcase the historical artwork and restoration efforts that were housed there.

I was a lead designer on this large scale environmental graphic installation project. Not only did the project have hundreds of elements and individual images that needed to elegantly direct visitors to what was being presented, but they needed to compliment an ornate turn of the century edifice. The project entailed establishing a brand system, creating way finding, instructional graphics and interactive wall displays.
