Partnered with artist Asea Lygdenova, the wayfinding signs feature Buryat-Mongolian calligraphy, adding a unique aesthetic that resonates with Buryatia’s cultural roots, enriching the region’s visual identity.
Integration of Buryat-Mongolian Calligraphy
The wayfinding system includes signage in Buryat, Russian, and English. Buryat and Russian are equally prominent, reflecting the city’s commitment to local heritage, while English supports international visitors.
Multilingual and Culturally Focused Signage
The signs are placed throughout the historic centre to guide users effortlessly to main attractions and public spaces. This positioning improves walkability and accessibility, making the historic district easier to navigate while promoting an immersive cultural experience for both residents and visitors.
We partnered with a local artist to design a system of multi-lingual signage that reflected the local cultural identity. Signs were strategically placed throughout the city centre to guide residents and visitors to the main attractions and public spaces.
