The Inner Harbor Project
2018
The Inner Harbor Project is a non-profit organization in Baltimore dedicated to finding solutions to social issues. We created signage for its “Respect Campaign,” an initiative that revolves around The Code of Respect, a set of tenets for civility developed by teenaged leaders encouraging people to treat each other well. Instead of creating a traditional regulatory sign that is authoritative and negative, we designed an inspiring and sculptural piece to carry this important message. The inviting and tactile heart signs were permanently installed in prominent locations throughout the Inner Harbor to invite interaction and spread the message.
