OVERVIEW | Upper Arlington High School is the sole high school in the Upper Arlington City School District in Upper Arlington, Ohio, a northwest suburb of Columbus, Ohio. In 2019, construction began on the new Upper Arlington High School. This new school has over 395,000 square feet of learning space — over 100,000 square feet more than the old building, accommodating the growing student population. Including a new stadium, concession stands and off-site athletic fields.

Eleven Fifty Seven worked alongside the school to add some branding and environmental graphics throughout the three-story academic building and Golden Bear Boulevard and dining areas.

OVERVIEW | Eleven Fifty Seven partnered with Muskingum University to design a branded experience throughout their new state-of-the-art Health & Wellness Complex. An indoor fieldhouse, a clinical space for the health science programs, a sports communication lab, and a fitness center are just a few of the features which allow this space to rival any division one facility. Eleven Fifty Seven worked closely with Muskingum leadership, as well as architect Derck & Edson to help identify and expand their vision for the space. This also included a student-involvement project in which Eleven Fifty Seven led the creative process for a key group of Muskingum students, to present design ideas for a prominent wall within the building. The students were able to apply their studies in marketing/media/art to a real project, and follow a similar design process they’ll experience once they enter the workforce.

OVERVIEW | As the new Athletics Center was being constructed, there was a strong desire to create a home for their Athletics Hall
of Fame, which currently existed only on their website. During the discovery phase with Eleven Fifty Seven, we uncovered previously unconsidered opportunities to consider in addition to recognizing athletic excellence.

The end result is the feature wall as you enter the building that tells the historical story of the athletics program, strong branding, recognition of honorees, and the ability to use as a recruitment tool for prospective students and their parents. Utilizing a combination of cost effective and easy to update transparency inserts with dynamic video/audio/text storytelling capabilities within the interactive Hall of Fame, we have an impressive visual and digital solution that is sure to deepen the bond between the stakeholders & the institution.

• Utilization of cost effective signage systems
