Young people are 20% of the population, but 100% of the future
Stella’s Place Signage | Digital Donor Recognition | Video ProductionForge had the pleasure of working with Stella’s Place – a not-for-profit organization in Toronto, ON, that helps young adults empower themselves to manage their mental health and wellness.
A place of their own.
During our inclusive co-design session, a rich diversity of stories from the stakeholders and youth participants revealed the tapestry of the community they are weaving together. This direction became a foundational theme for the project.
CAPTURING THEIR SPIRIT
The interconnected concept of community is in all of the project elements, including a colourful thread graphic that weaves throughout the space, intuitively delineating areas that youth participants are welcome to utilize. Every detail of the signage keeps the safety of the participants in mind and features a high level of changeability to accommodate the many services provided.
The digital donor wall was placed at the heart of the new building, highlighting the importance of the people that provide funding, service, and participation. At the push of a button, video testimonials of donors, participants, peers and staff capture the essence of ‘Why Stella’s Place matters’ and illustrates the strong sense of belonging shared by all who walk through its doors.
This project embodies our ongoing commitment to improving healthcare experiences and clearly exhibits how we can infuse a space with our client’s spirit so they feel right at home.
