INTRODUCTION
The Goals of the Duke University Sign Program are to make the University more
welcoming and accessible; to provide information clearly and consistently; to
minimize the number of signs (clean up existing sign clutter); to enhance the
appearance of the campus and preserve the scale of the landscape.
These Sign Standards have been refined over time and reflect lessons learned in the
initial implementation of the program as well ever evolving wayfinding requirements
as the campus continues to develop and change.
This manual has been prepared for the Duke University Landscape Architect and
reflects and supports the goals for the 2024 Campus Master Plan and the 2012
Action Plan.
Mark Hough, FASLA, University Landscape Architect

PRINCIPLES
The following principles provide the foundation of our work for the Duke University Sign Program. They are elaborated on and reinforced in the pages that follow.
1. User-Oriented Program: Problems should be looked at from the point of view of the visitor. How does the visitor perceive the University? What expectations does he/she have? Solutions should be directed toward those visitors least experienced with the Duke University Campus.
2. Priorities: It is impossible to list all possible destinations at any given decision point. (People will not assimilate or retain more that three or four messages at a given point.) Therefore, Priorities must be established to provide information to those destinations with the highest use by un-escorted visitors.
3. Visitor Parking: Visitor parking areas should not only be viewed as high priority destinations, but also as places to orient and inform first-time visitors.
4. Consistency: The signs must work as a system so that the visitor can quickly become familiarized with the signing and can develop expectations (in effect, know “where to look” for information). The signing should be consistent in color, scale and placement. Messages should also be consistent so that the same nomenclature is used on pre-trip information, verbal confirmation, directional signing in route, and finally, identification signing at the destination.
5. Need to Know: New signing should be implemented on a “need to know” basis. No additional information should be provided unless it is absolutely necessary. Eliminate non-essential information and sign clutter whenever possible.
6. Aesthetics: The signs should be attractive as well as informative. They should fit in with the Duke University campus setting and complement both the architecture and the landscape.
7. Coordination: signage should be part of all campus planning and design efforts so that traffic circulation, lighting, architectural and landscape improvements are all integrated as the campus evolves.
8. Maintenance: Signage should be designed so that initial installation, updating and maintenance are within the capabilities of University staff.
Exterior Sign Standards
APPROACH
The highest concern is for the first time visitor, therefore, wayfinding information
focuses directions to the West and East campuses and to key first-time visitor
destinations which include the following:
- Undergraduate Admissions (Admissions)
- Athletic Facilities (Athletics)
- Alumni & Visitor Center (Visitor Center)
- Campus Center & Theaters
- Duke University Chapel (Chapel)
- Nasher Art Museum
- Sarah P. Duke Gardens (Duke Gardens)
- Visitor Parking
The Campus Center term encompasses Page Auditorium, West Union, Bryan Center,
and the Penn Pavilion. This all encompassing term helps to reduce the number of
destinations needed on directional signs and is intuitive as a visitor destination.
The terms in parenthesis are abbreviated versions for use on directional signs,
improving legibility and comprehension for vehicular traffic.
The University has a strong and clear peripheral road system, therefore the sign
program emphasizes moving traffic along the campus perimeter. The intent is to
minimize inter-campus circulation, thus reducing traffic congestion and reducing the
need for on-campus directional signage.
Parking at the Campus Center Garage, the Science Drive Lot and the new parking
garage on the corner of Science Drive and Cameron Blvd. are
critical visitor parking resources closely associated with key first-time visitor
destinations including Athletics, the Campus Center, Chapel and Theaters. The sign
program directs visitors to these resources and clearly distinguishes them as visitor
parking, as opposed to faculty, staff
and students.
Finally, a major issue on campus is sign clutter. The proliferation of signage
particularly temporary A-Frame and event signage, and regulatory parking signs has a
significant negative impact on the appearance of the campus. It is the goal of the
exterior sign program to establish standards and guidelines for temporary signage as
well as permanent regulatory signs to consolidate and reduce the number of signs and
establish consistency. Reducing sign clutter and providing a consistent look will
improve the appearance of campus and reduce confusion. Less is more.
Exterior Sign Standards
A. CAMPUS SIGNS
Exterior campus signs have been designed as a kit-of-parts that can be implemented in
phases and is designed to be appropriate to all areas of the campuses.
The graphic standards are the building blocks of the sign program: typography,
symbols, color and the use of the Duke University logo are shown on the graphics
standards pages which follow and then are applied comprehensively to each sign type.
It is important to adhere to these specifications in order to ensure a consistent
appearance for all sign types.
The Exterior Signage is divided into categories defined by function as follows:
- Identification
- Direction
- Regulation
- Information
The following sign type drawings include criteria for the function of each sign,
information and specifications for materials, colors and graphics as well as details for
fabrication and panel text layouts. These standards are designed to be flexible;
additional layouts within each sign type will be added as the program evolves.

Adobe Garamond Semibold is the primary signage typeface. It is used in all caps format for the identification of building names, parking lots and garages and, to maximize legibility, upper and lowercase format for directional information .
The Manufacturer of Adobe Garamond is Adobe Systems Inc., 345 Park Avenue, San Jose, CA 95110. No substitutions will be allowed, as there are significant differences between manufacturers.
Interstate light is used in various formats for secondary information.
The Manufacturer of Interstate is The Font Bureau, Inc., 179 South Street, 7th Floor, Boston MA 02111. No substitutions will be allowed.
See the following pages for letterspacing specifications.

Proper letterspacing is a critical factor affecting not only the appearance of the signs and graphics but also their legibility. In general, upper & lowercase format should be provided with some additional letterspacing equal to 25 em/1000 minimum (as defined by Adobe Illustrator) to compensate for site distances and the glow from reflective sheeting. If line length is limited letterspacing can be reduce to a minimum of 10 em/1000.
All caps format requires additional letterspacing to enhance legibility and improve the appearance of the letters. The letterspacing for
roman capitals format is 50 em/1000.
Adjustment of kerning pairs will always be necessary and will be the responsibility of the Sign Contractor, with review and approval by the Landscape Architect.

B. TEMPORARY SIGNS
The following guidelines establish a consistent and clutter-free campus environment
while allowing operations to continue as effectively and efficiently as possible.
All new orders for signs must comply with the guidelines and policies described and
illustrated on the sign type drawings that follow:
Sign Type 30— Temporary A-Frame Sign
Sign Type 31—Temporary Yard Sign
Sign Type 32—Construction Project Sign
Sign Type 33—Work In Progress Sign
For temporary signs proposed for an extended period of time to mitigate rerouting
of pedestrian paths due to construction, FMD must be provided with a plan showing
proposed locations of signs, sign messages, and sample graphics for review and
approval, prior to installation of signs.
Any non-compliant signs found on campus will be removed by Facilities Management
Department (z). Periodic deviations from the standards are to be expected on occasion
and may be approved beforehand for short-term use by FMD.
Certain days or periods of time — such as Commencement, BOT weekends, etc.— may
be dedicated as “non clutter times” when all but those signs deemed essential will be
allowed. A calendar and detailed procedures will be created for regular times and all
other dates and times.
