Entry Description

The environmental graphic promotes a collective sense of empathy through the metaphor of walking a day in another person's shoes. Treads from the bottom of shoes create a rhythmic texturing overlaid on large scale lettering. Iconic symbols of crosswalks including the white lines and 'walk' pictogram are used for visual familiarity but recontextualized to invite the participant in playful movement.
