Wayfinding for Depot finalist for ADC Awards

Housing over 151.000 objects, Depot Boijmans Van Beuningen is the world’s first publicly accessible art depot. Inside the radical building, it feels as if you have accidentally walked into the staff entrance of a world-class museum.

The integral visitor experience offers activating, unusual new views on art and encourages discovery and collection. While obfuscating the distinction between back-of-house and front-of-house, all digital (touch) screens, wayfinding and signage element have all been designed as an extension of the utilitarian architecture: neutral, modular and functional.

For over a century, the Art Directors Club of New York Annual Awards have been celebrating the very best in advertising, digital media, graphic and publication design, packaging and product design, motion, gaming, experiential and architecture, photography, illustration and fashion design – all with a focus on artistry and craftsmanship.

Silo has previously been awarded the coveted Designism Cube for Zaans Medical Center as well as Gold Cubes for Bicycle Parking The Hague and Zaans Medical Center.
