Signage

Consistent building signage is a critical part of the Kennesaw State University visual identity program. While consideration may be given to factors such as donor recognition and architectural design, particularly for interior signage, all building signage should be consistent with the university’s visual identity program and use the official university logo and colors.

Exterior and interior signage guidelines
