The Client
Salisbury University, located in the state of Maryland and celebrating its library’s tenth anniversary
The Ask
As part of their library anniversary fundraiser, Salisbury University Libraries wanted to commission a custom-designed set of the Guerrieri Academic Commons.
How We Did It
Our designer listened carefully to the client’s ideas, studied the pictures, and soon created the first concept. The client responded with more close-ups of the staircase to better capture the look, as well as more photos of the bells and landscaping strips at the entrance. Using these images, we redesigned these sections closer to the client’s vision. The bell tower proved tricky to recreate with the needed details in miniature, so instead of a decal with just the library’s name, they could print the decal with the tower façade including the name, thus capturing the details that bricks were simply too large to showcase.
The Result
After some final details, including the marketing content Salisbury University Libraries created for the Build Instructions, Salisbury University included these custom Playwell Bricks sets in their 10th anniversary library fundraiser, offering the sets as a thank-you gift for donors of $100 or more. As an important part of the campus, this is a set that alumni will be sure to treasure and display with university pride and fond nostalgia.
