Brand Standards and Design System
We're planning, designing and building the most ambitious transit expansion in the country, with new service opening every few years. With 20+ active transit projects in development, we need a strong foundation and strategy for visual communication to keep our project neighbors informed of progress and impacts.
In my role, I develop, maintain and continually evolve our design system of templates and assets used to educate, notify and engage transit project communities from Everett to Tacoma, West Seattle to Issaquah and everywhere in between.
