Whitney Veigas completes Brandeis University's Mandel Center, Newton North High and Rashi School sign projects

Whitney Veigas completed architectural signage projects for three academic buildings. For Brandeis Univerity's new Mandel Center, Whitney Veigas provided a turn-key design-build signage solution. The 35,000 s/f building, designed by Kallmann McKinnell & Wood, contains lecture halls and faculty offices. Whitney Veigas designed, supplied, and installed signage for the facility under a design-build contract directly with the university. The sign program included interior room identification and wayfinding plaques on frosted glass backers, exterior building identification letters on slate shingles, and metal letters recognizing donors. This was the eighth building on the Brandeis University campus for which Whitney Veigas has designed and supplied signs. Whitney Veigas designed the sign program for the Newton North High School. The 410,000 s/f public high school was designed by Gund Partnership and Dore & Whittier Architects. The design contract was with Dore & Whittier and consisted of sign design services as well as all supporting drawings, documentation, and specifications. The project consisted of interior ADA and wayfinding signage, an exterior monolith, and panel and post traffic and parking signs. Finally, Whitney Veigas supplied and installed the signs for the Rashi School in Dedham. The new campus for this private K-8 school was designed by HMFH Architects, while the signs were designed by Gill Fishman Associates. Whitney Veigas was selected to engineer, supply, and install the interior and exterior signs for this new facility. Features of the sign program include a large frosted glass donor wall with copper accents in the lobby, as well as curved stainless ground supports for the exterior donor signs. Whitney Veigas designs, supplies, and installs interior and exterior architectural signage for academic, institutional, and corporate facilities.
