Lycée Français Charles Lepierre

A international school in Lisbon challenged MD3 to create the signage for the entire new educational institution's space.

The Lycée Français Charles Lepierre, in Lisbon, Portugal, challenged MD3 to create the signage for the entire new educational institution’s space, which allows the union between the high school and the extension building.

We presented a proposal for easy-to-move or change signage. We used modular and replaceable signage, which allowed creative freedom in composition, like Lego pieces. 

Aspects such as modular design, iconography, colour, and legible and easy-to-read typeface that allow the visitor to locate himself effectively and quickly, were taken into account in the design of our proposal.

For the first proposal, we suggested plates in white PVC engraved in black, with a clear and simple typography. This piece has a fitting that allows it to be easily replaced.

The second proposal presents the idea of modular pieces with plugs that can be fitted into perforated PCV, which gives freedom in the placement of signs.
