SUMMARY
While at Forms and Surfaces I designed wayfinding systems, brochures and custom signage for hotels, as well
as creating technical illustrations for production. In redesigning the wayfinding signage for Hilton’s Doubletree
chain of hotels, many new sales opportunities were realized. Because of the success of designing signage for
high-end hotels, including the Taj in Surat, India and Marriott Meadowview in Tennessee, I received
recognition for creativity and customer satisfaction.
