PAVE: Environmental Graphics by Paula Scher

Renowned designer Paula Scher has crafted a striking series of environmental graphics for the PAVE Academy Charter School in Brooklyn, New York, an institution dedicated to educating children from low-income families. Through bold typography and expansive scale, Scher’s graphics vividly convey the school’s mission and values across its premises.

Scher’s design intervention encompasses the school building, where large-scale typography dominates various spaces. The imposing graphics serve as visual anchors, effectively communicating the ethos and principles of the academy to students, faculty, and visitors alike.
