Environmental Design Philosophy¶
SBK environmental branding must: - Create memorable impressions in physical spaces - Reinforce brand identity consistently across touchpoints - Guide and inform visitors and staff effectively - Balance visibility with professional sophistication - Integrate seamlessly with architectural contexts - Align with active design variant using {{token}} references
Environmental Anti-Patterns¶
Never create: - Overly prominent branding that feels aggressive - Signage that clashes with building aesthetics - Poor wayfinding that confuses visitors - Cheap-looking materials that undermine brand - Inaccessible signage without ADA compliance - Variant-mismatched signage (e.g., cyber_shield in a warm creative space)
