Interpretive Signs for Stormwater Projects

This year The Watershed Company's graphic design team got to create interpretive signs for three different stormwater and low impact development projects, for a total of 13 signs on topics ranging from filtering runoff with raingardens and stormwater ponds, to allowing infiltration by using permeable paving, to planting drought-tolerant plants.

The Watershed Company researched, wrote, illustrated, and designed five interpretive signs for a stormwater retrofit project along Bear Creek in Redmond.

King County DOT hired The Watershed Company to create two interpretive signs to draw attention to stormwater improvements in Federal Way, including a new raingarden and permeable pavement sidewalks.

For Premera Healthcare, we created 6 signs to accompany a mitigation and parking lot landscape that included raingardens and bioswales.
