"Hey, mom! I'm at Arts Landing."
About the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust Gala
"Arts Landing, a new outdoor civic space envisioned by the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust and designed by renowned landscape architecture firm Field Operations, promises to be one of the most transformative projects in the Cultural District in 25 years.
The creatively designed and community focused four-acre destination welcomes residents and visitors, hosts festivals and performances, exhibits public art, and provides opportunities for everyday recreation and relaxation."

My Role
Being aware of the photo opportunity that this civic space offers to its visitors, my team pitched an architectural signage that could stand out and at the same fit in a selfie.
I conducted a brainstorm session with my team in which we browsed similar places, kind of selfie station, and portals are seen out there. Once we hammered the type of signage, I took the decision to my drawing board to craft the final product.
