In public places wayfinding seeks to provide information without detracting from the space or its features. It can also play a role in fostering a sense of place through art, interpretation or technology, communicating the significance behind an exhibit, feature or place.
The Art Gallery of Alberta was designed by Randall Stout Architects after an intense worldwide architectural competition. The building is itself a work of art, designed to evoke a connection between the structure and site at any time of day or year. Its design is engaging and inviting, welcoming visitors of all ages and backgrounds to experience art firsthand. The new gallery has allowed the capital of Alberta to become a leading venue for international and Canadian art.
Cygnus and their dedicated staff have been instrumental in addressing... the signage needs for Vancouver Police Department projects... They have accepted every challenge with a willingness to find a solution and have followed through from the design stage to the implementation.
