Northeastern ITS Compass Posters

Northeastern ITS Departmental Values Poster Series

Designed comprehensive series of 10 standalone art posters visually articulating the foundational values of Northeastern University's ITS department, translating abstract organizational principles into compelling visual narratives that reinforce workplace culture. Created unified visual language that communicated complex cultural concepts while ensuring each poster functioned independently as impactful office art, balancing aesthetic appeal with strategic messaging that resonated across diverse stakeholder groups within the department.

Developed visual system supporting three core organizational pillars: commitment to excellence in all work outputs, courage to embrace transformative change, and cultivation of mutual respect within and beyond the workplace. Through strategic typography, imagery selection, and compositional approaches, each poster served dual purposes—enhancing the physical work environment while functioning as daily reinforcement of shared departmental values and behavioral expectations.
