The EXP Makerspace at Northeastern University is a vibrant hub for innovation and hands-on creativity. Designed as the university’s first creative community center, the EXP Makerspace brings together students, faculty, and staff to explore new ideas, experiment freely, and collaborate across disciplines. The resulting identity celebrates curiosity, creativity, and the joy of making.

I served as the sole designer for this project, defining the creative strategy informed by student experiences and the university’s lacking creative offerings. Pitching to university stakeholders, I developed a cohesive visual system that reflects the Makerspace’s mission. From logo and color development to environmental and digital design, every element was created to express the contagious energy, inclusivity, and curiosity that define the ideal Makerspace experience.
