VAR*RL REBRAND
09.2022
BRANDING / 3D MODELING

Collaborative rebranding project designed with Claire Collins, ︎︎︎Danielle Chang, and ︎︎︎Michelle Nie. Designing based on thesis question: How does physical space initiate conversation and build community? This project focused on developing a rebrand and installation proposal for Boston University's SVA Library now named VAR*RL (Visual Arts Research & Resource Library) located at 855 Commonwealth Ave on the 5th Floor.

As a team, we developed interactive materials to encourage student engagement within the library space. This included an exterior wayfinding frame for staff to display posters and promotional materials, accommodating sizes from 8.5x11 inches to 24x36 inches. Additionally, a bookshelf installation was placed in front of the Senior Studio at 808 Comm. Ave as an extension of VAR*RL. A SketchUp model was created to propose future design enhancements, aiming to transform the library into a more inviting and collaborative environment.
