INTRA-BUILDING WAYFINDING, DIRECTIONAL SIGNAGE

In conjunction with the larger campus wayfinding masterplan, all products are

to be flexible enough to be added to seamlessly if additional components are

required. Key elements are arrow, building name, full building name, and level

indicator.

MODULAR DESIGN

Directory Details

Directories are to be extendable

such that adding rows or layers of

information is seamless. Wall mount

signage is to consist of multi-paneled,

painted and baked aluminum

components that secure to a common

rigid base. Panels are to be “locked-

in” to the base, such only facility staff

with a key or equivalent component

can remove the panels. Graphics

are to be computer-cut vinyl, as per

specifications shown at right.

BRAND ELEMENTS

The following pages illustrate the use of University of Alberta brandmarks and

proposed type in the interior sign program. Signage has substantial impact on the

expression of campus identity so it is important that it is handled with sensitivity. This

package illustrates some of our thoughts

All logos and brand elements to follow University Brand Guidelines. University logos

and brand elements are maintained and distributed by Marketing & Communications,

University Relations, University of Alberta.


CREST + SHIELD

Explicit University of Alberta brandmarks will be used in limited

fashion across campus.

Unless called for in specific instances, logos will appear in their single-

colour forms.

Use of the full University of Alberta logo will be restricted to key

locations functioning primarily on its own in media such as three-

dimensional cut-out brushed-metal letters or vinyl applied graphics.

These will be used in limited fashion in locations where a statement of

the campus identity is required.

Full Logo(Showing horizontal format)

Sub-unit LogoTwo Tiers

Sub-unit LogoThree Tiers

UNIVERSITY OF ALBERTAFACULTY OF ARTSDepartment of Music

UNIVERSITY OF ALBERTADEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURAL,FOOD & NUTRITIONAL SCIENCE

GRAPHIC PINSTRIPE

To bring the traditional green and gold into the sign program, we

are using a gradiated pinstripe with the intent of providing a sense

of campus identity on everything from major directories to individual

workstations. We are using it as a horizontal element on wall-mount

items, and as a vertical element on suspended items to compliment the

direction of travel and to make best use of the graphic area available.

Pantone 356 Green Pantone 7405 Yellow

Sub-unit dominant logos will be used with goal signage to clearly

demarcate departments and destinations in a fashion consistent with

their other publications.

University logos are maintained and distributed by Marketing &

Communications, University Relations, University of Alberta.

Official wordmarks are posted online at http://www.toolkit.ualberta.ca/

Type Proportion

Width Ratio of width to height for an upper case letter ’X‘ should be between 3:5 and 1:1. Fonts for an upper case X should not be wider than they are tall.

Height Ratio for the height for an lower case letter ’x‘ to the height of an upper case letter ’X‘ should be about 3:4 (lower case letters should beabout 75% the height of upper case letters).

Weight The stroke width to height ratio should be between 1:5 and 1:10. Text should not be too thin and light or too heavy.

TYPOGRAPHY

Designed in 1957, Helvetica is a sans-serif font used extensively in many signs

systems and visual design programs. The typeface has been a continous part

of University of Alberta interior and exterior sign programs and use of this

typeface will allow better harmonization between newer and older systems

on campus but also better intergrate with Federal Identity Program, Alberta

Government, and Alberta Health Services systems which also use Helvetica.

Typeface sizes used in this typeface are such that 100 pt = 1.00 inch. Generally

speaking typesizes tend towards 0.50 inch, 0.75 inch, 1.00 inch, 1.50 inch,

2.00 inch, 3.00 inch, and increments that make the replacement of wording

easier to manage and maintain.

In cases where users are needing to update their personnel ID, a reasonable

subsitute for Helvetica is Arial. For this reason staff templates distributed for

items on the next page use Arial.

Wall and door mounted signs (within easy reach) are tactile (ST 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.7, and 2.8) for new capital projects and major renovations and upgrades.Text on these signs is set uppercase because those without the ability to read braille are sometimes trained to read uppercase lettering.

Typical Grade 2 Braille Balls, as per ADA requirements, �nished to match White. Braille text on these signs is for position only.Tactile letters/number �nished to match White. Non-tactile (NT) signs use roman (mixed-case) typography elsewhere.

General

Proper care and maintenance involves observing a few

simple rules and will help maintain the signs’ attractive

appearance and ensure a longer life.

Clean signs, as well as being easier to read, convey a

positive impression to visitors and your own personnel.

Never use these cleaning products on any signs:

• methylated spirits, solvents or any acids

• detergents containing abrasives

• coarse cloth or cleaning brushes

• powerful steam or high pressure cleaning machines

Examples:

Sign Type 4.1 Standard Classroom ID

Sign Type 1.1 Single Personnel ID

Products Cleaning

On interior products use a soft cloth moistened with

a mild window detergent. Always ensure no dust or

dirt particles are rubbed into the surface and never use

paper towels to clean the surface. Acrylic cleaning fluid

can be used to remove any particularly obstinate stain

or grease.

Exterior surfaces should be washed with clean water

and car shampoo 3 - 4 times a year or as required. Car

shampoo contains wax to protect and preserve the

surface. Graffiti remover enables you to remove most

forms of graffiti without damage to either paint or

text. The graffiti should be removed immediately after

application and no later than one week after. Exposure

to sun and heat makes graffiti more difficult

to remove.

Environmental effects vary from area to area and the

frequency of cleaning should reflect local maintenance

considerations. All painted and acrylic components do

fade over time, particulaly in areas of strong sunlight.
