Problem
The issue with ECUAD is that the campus does not have an accurate updated map for students, visitors and faculty to navigate the location. In this project, we remapped the entire school as well as colour coded specific departments, services and equiptment locations. A hand-out pamplet is avaliable at the front desk for lost bodies to locate themselves in the school. The pamplet gives a brief history of Emily Carr University and provides hours and contact information for convenience. On the other side, a map will show viewers the layout of the school.

Pamphlet Placement
The pamplet for the North building would be placed on the Reception's desk, where visitors, students and faculty can take one. The pamplets for the South building would be placed on a stand at the security's desk for students and faculty so they may locate their classes.
