Wayfinding and Interpretation Brief, Exeter Community Centre Trust

Invitation to tender:

Key elements of the project are to:

a) Provide interpretation of Exeter Community Centre, a large, brick building – a former Victorian Institute for the Blind - and its surrounding St David’s neighbourhood in Exeter, with maps and hotspots so that visitors to the Centre and the local community can understand and value its rich heritage

b) Design materials to promote the route and key features of a St David’s Trail around the local St David’s neighbourhood

c) Design and provide signage outside and inside the 4 floors of what has been described as a ‘rabbit warren’ of a building in order that it will be more accessible to all visitors and particularly those who are blind or partially sighted.

d) Design and supply structure and materials for a micro-site, linked to Exeter Community Centre Trust’s website, in which the archive of heritage research already conducted by Community Centre volunteers can be stored and retrieved online and via an interactive touchscreen in the Centre building.
