Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) needed to refresh their outdated waste signage. Students (and faculty) were ignoring the informative stickers on the bins. After a tour of our local Materials Recovery Facility (MRF), and in collaboration with the VCU Office of Sustainability, I developed new ones which were clearer, cleaner, more informative, and even a bit more accurate.
Not just directional, but educational.
Part of the strategy behind the redesign was to include a more robust package of signage and stickers to call out common mistakes in waste separation. We made sure —through crystal clear visual communication — to educate VCU Rams on plastic bag disposal, coffee cup disposal, and resources available to them.
