juggling act – waldmeisterstraße primary school , signage system , munich 2022

the signage system is a typographic juggling act, a finely-poised interplay of colour, form and lettering, because that’s how it is in school: one thing builds on another, everything is interconnected. these balancing acts are meticulously calibrated, offering easily readable factual information at the eye level of the building’s young users. alternating vanishing points convey how shifts in perspective enhance our understanding – be it between here and there, old and young, small and big, or quiet and noisy.
