Completion date
January 2011

To assist students, families, fans and other visitors in navigating Iowa State's campus more effectively, RDG developed a master plan identifying 25 wayfinding signs to help direct traffic to academic, athletic and housing destinations. RDG was responsible for the development of the South Campus Gateway, vehicular signage, lighting and site improvements to welcome guests.

The signs included a screen-printed aluminum face with a bronze gabled surrounding structure. In addition to the signage package, RDG was asked to develop concepts for campus building identity monuments to be implemented at a later date.
