Environmental Interpretive Center: Redesign



CHANNELS   Exhibit Design - Brand Identity - UI/UX

PROJECT ROLE Researcher - Exhibit Designer - Collateral Designer



GOAL:
Redesign the Environmental Interpretive Center at the University of Michigan Dearborn campus to help garner engagement and visibility in their community.

WHAT IS THE EIC?:
The EIC is a nature and learning center located on the University of Michigan Dearborn campus. They really value teaching the community about their surroundings, and getting them involved in nature. 

OUR TAKE: My team began by identifying our theme for this redesign. Natural Movement movement became that prominent theme. Nature is always moving and changing. We developed a new flow for the building that matched that sentiment. From its wayfinding to its content. We created a whole new experience for guests that spanned from the digital world to the physical world, and can change with the seasons, migration patterns, and rainfall. We finished off this process by building a physical mockup of our watershed exhibit.
