Illuminating Nature: Designing a Wayside Exhibit to Promote Public Engagement in Trillium Community Forest

Project by Mica Low (2018)

The purpose of this project was to produce a wayside exhibit for the Whidbey Camano Land Trust in accordance with the best practices in the field of exhibit design. This project consisted of preliminary evaluation, research and interpretive writing, and design of an illustrated wayside exhibit for the Trillium Community Forest. This project sought to employ accessible interpretive writing, bold design elements, and high-quality illustration to catch and hold the attention of the visitor. The end products as delivered to the Land Trust consist of the interpretive planning and evaluation, exhibit text, rough sign designs, and two options for final finish.
