University External Mapping and Signage
Newcastle University has an approved corporate approach to the design and production of its signage, mapping and wayfinding materials on campus. In 2009 the University undertook an audit of wayfinding on campus. The resulting strategy led to a rebranding of Newcastle University external map signage, map finger posts and external building signage completed in Autumn 2010.
The project was carried out by the University Wayfinding Group which holds responsibility for the future upkeep of the signage on campus including final approval and sign off on all products.
