Created for the Vanier Community Association in Ottawa, this series of wayfinding maps was designed to serve pedestrians—locals, visitors, and tourists alike. Installed in strategic outdoor locations, the maps prioritize clarity and accessibility for users of all ages.
Each map features custom-designed iconography and stylized illustrations of local landmarks to help users orient themselves and navigate easily. Beyond aesthetics, the layout was also built for practicality: the posters were structured to allow timely updates as new destinations emerged or community needs evolved.
While I provided creative direction and project oversight—among other tasks—for most of my portfolio samples, the final outcome reflects a collaborative process. I worked closely with professionals across disciplines, including writers, developers, illustrators, photographers, printers, and fellow designers. My role included guiding strategy and execution while empowering others to contribute their strengths. I believe leadership in design means conducting the orchestra, not playing every instrument.
