Coady International Institute
Coady International Institute
With more than 55,000 square feet of classrooms, halls, offices, and library space, Coady International Institute’s new facilities at St. Francis Xavier University in Antigonish, Nova Scotia, required a seamless experience for educators, students, and visitors alike.
At the institute, our designers developed a wayfinding and building identification signage program that directs users throughout the East and West wings of the campus, three different interactive multi-media programs and a donor wall that acknowledges the institute’s many sponsors.
