Pittsburgh Botanic Garden

Kolano Design has created the sign program at Pittsburgh Botanic Garden since 2012, starting with the Welcome Center farmstead and barn. The program includes a monument site sign, vehicular and pedestrian wayfinding, trail markers, interpretive and ADA interior signs, and off site directional signs, designed to keep signs light in the landscape yet visible to every visitor. Later phases added Welcome Center, reopening and donor recognition signs.

Kolano Design designed the website for Pittsburgh Botanic Garden, the public garden west of Pittsburgh, as part of a long relationship that also covers the garden's signage, wayfinding and event graphics. The site presents visiting information, events, programs and membership in a layout built around the garden's own photography, carrying the same visual identity visitors see on site.

Kolano Design has created the event materials for From Garden to Table, Pittsburgh Botanic Garden's gala honoring the best chefs in the country, across multiple years. Honorees have included Ina Garten, Jacques Pépin, Alice Waters, Thomas Keller, Rick Bayless and Daniel Boulud. Each year Kolano designed the invitations, printed pieces and event graphics around the evening's garden to table theme, part of Kolano's broader print work for the garden.
