AESTHETIC GUIDELINESEXTERIOR SIGNAGEGUIDELINES
Updated September 2016
NOTE: These Exterior Signage Guidelines are one section of the Colorado State University Aesthetic Guidelines Document.
Revised May 2019
1. General
Signage does more than identify a building or point the way; signs express the character and identity of the campus and of Colorado State University.
Intent:• To direct and inform campus users
• To defi ne campus gateways and edges
• To establish the campus arrival sequence
• To enhance campus aesthetics
• To provide opportunities to tell the “CSU story”
These signage guidelines cover the following types of exterior signs on campus:• Permanent exterior signage
• Memorial plaques and benches
• Banners and other temporary signage
a. General Exterior Campus Signage Policy
It is the policy of Colorado State University to regulate and establish standards for all exterior signage and graphics used on university property, to assist in providing direction and information, to ensure adherence to minimum aesthetic and design standards, and to ensure uniformity in appearance.
These guidelines and requirements are effective for all University Campuses: Main, South, and Foothills, as well as Hughes Stadium, ARDEC, and outlying areas/streets.
BASIC GUIDELINES• All signage and graphics on campus will be in
accordance with standards established by CSU Facilities Management, Creative Services, and any other guidelines published and maintained by the university.
E. Overall Exterior Signage
Photo 2.xx Main entry signage at Center and University Avenues integrates site elements including a low wall and a highly detailed landscape.
Photo 2.xx Consistent signage, such as the building address sign standard, provides a unifi ed appearance across the university campuses.
Photo 2.xx New entry monumentation at Foothills Campus incorporates elements of existing signage that create a cohesive and dynamic family of signs.
II. COMMON ELEMENTS42
• Temporary signage, banners and graphics will conform to the graphics code established by CSU Creative Services.
• No permanent or temporary sign or graphic will be erected or installed in public areas on university property without the prior written approval of the appropriate University offi cial. Authority to approve a posting on campus varies depending on the desired location of posting. See the following sections for further information.
• All signage and graphics erected without appropriate review and approval are subject to removal or modifi cation at the direction of Facilities Managment.
• The end of this Signage section provides requirements for temporary signage and banners.
RESPONSIBILITYCSU Facilities Management Landscape Architecture Offi ce establishes and maintains current standards and guidelines for exterior campus signs. This includes the implementation, administration, and interpretation of permanent and temporary exterior sign policy on campus. Standards and guidelines include such things as acceptable sign forms, type styles, sizes, colors, formats, materials, construction methods, materials, and sign locations.
Requests for exemption from or modifi cation of the current sign standards must be submitted to Facilities Management Landscape Architecture Offi ce for review and approval prior to implementing and/or installation.

c. Who Pays for Signage?
PERMANENT EXTERIOR SIGNAGE
Facilities Management is allotted an annual budget for the maintenance and repair of permanent exterior campus signs. Some new signs are included in the cost of a new project such as when a new building is constructed or a major building modifi cation is made. Otherwise, the cost of any new exterior signage specifi c to a building or department and its installation is the responsibility of that College and/or Department.
TEMPORARY EXTERIOR SIGNAGE/BANNERS
Sponsor is responsible for all costs associated with production, installation, removal and storage of banners.
The end of this Signage section provides requirements for temporary exterior signage and banners.

2. General Exterior Signage Design
There are several basic design characteristics that, by serving to convey necessary information clearly and attractively, are an integral part of any successful signage system.• Sign messages shall be clear, simple and easy for
motorist to process quickly.
• The importance of consistent implementation extends from the larger issues of sign type and size down to accurate color continuity and matching type styles.
• Exterior signs must be located at signifi cant decision points and oriented to provide clear sight lines for the intended user. Close coordination of locations with respect to landscaping, utilities, adjacent signage and various other site design elements is important to ensure long-term maximum visibility.
• Exterior sign type style, line spacing, color and size shall take into consideration users such as motorists, pedestrians or bicyclists, and the relative travel speed at which each type of user will be traveling when viewing the signs.
• Permanent exterior signs shall follow the signage standards in the Federal Highway Administrations’s Manual on Uniform Traffi c Control Devices (FHWA MUTCD) for type sizing, thickness, spacing, color contrast, sign locations, etc. as much as possible. Temporary exterior signage is not required to follow these requirements but is recommended to do so for best readability and consistency. Refer to http://mutcd.fhwa.dot.gov/ for these standards.
• Exterior signage shall be designed with the ability to adapt to changing information and content. Continually recreating an entirely new sign results in expensive and unnecessary costs.
• Vehicular-oriented signs should have night visibility (refl ective or internally illuminated text and graphics).

3. CSU Exterior Signage StandardsA family of exterior signage has been developed that provides standards for color, typefont, and materials, for consistency in a variety of signage types.
a. General Standards
1. TYPEFACES AND SYMBOLS• Primary exterior signage typeface is the CSU
approved typeface:
o Minion Pro Semibold
• Signage typefaces for vehicular directional signage at the Foothills and South Campuses only:
o Garamond• Do not use imitation font families.

2. COLORSColors for existing exterior signs on campus have varied throughout the years, as the offi cial green color for the CSU logo has changed and as different signage materials and technologies have changed. CSU is striving to have a consistent color palette among all signs and on each campus going forward. However, this needs to be balanced with the fact that many existing signs will not be replaced until their signage “life” is over.
Sign panels are fabricated using one of two materials: aluminum or steel. Colors are applied using one of two methods - a Matthews Acrylic Polyeurethane Paint (MAPP) process or a 3M Vinyl application. The MAPP process closely matches the offi cial CSU Green (Pantone 357). The 3M Vinyl Dark Green (#220-56) matches the CSU Green as is possible. Vinyl material is often used in cost-effective situations. Refer to each sign standard for materials and colors.• All painted fi nishes are Matthews Acrylic
Polyurethane Paint (MAPP) with clear topcoat semigloss fi nish/anti-graffi ti coating.
• All text is 3M Scotchlite refl ective vinyl.
• CSU logos and graphics are 3M Scotchlite vinyl or refl ective vinyl.
• Apply anti-graffi ti coating to all signs.

3. EXTERIOR SIGNAGE LOCATIONS• Each CSU campus has a specifi c Exterior
Signage Location Plan to show proposed general sign locations.
• Smaller signs, such as building address, building directory, temporary, memorial and regulatory signs may not be shown on those plans.
• See each individual campus section of these guidelines for the specifi c Campus Exterior Signage Location Plan.
• A specifi c, detailed plan shall be created for each sign prior the fi nal sign design being fabricated and installed.
• Signs mounted on buildings are generally not allowed on Main Campus, except in cases where a building-mounted sign already exists, or a rare exception can be shown it is necessary. Building-mounted signs are allowed on South Campus, Foothills Campus, ARDEC and other agricultural-based facilities where necessary. A request for a building-mounted sign on Main or South Campus can be forwarded to the CSU Physical Development Committee for further review. Contact Facilities Management Landscape Architecture offi ce for more information.
• Signage and graphics will not be located in a public right-of-way.
• All signs to be located minimum 3’-0” from curb/road.
• All signs not located in lawn or planting bed shall be set in concrete for any viewable sign face (some signs have content on both sides of sign). This paved area shall have a 3’-0” clearance surrounding the sign for ADA access. This clearance area shall have a consistent grade, maxiumum of 2% cross-slope.
• Signs should be placed perpendicular to traffi c, wherever feasible.
• Vehicular-oriented signage should be located in advance of decision points.
• Vehicular-oriented building address signs should be located next to the primary vehicular route as possible.
• Pedestrian-oriented buildings signs should be located as close to an entrance as possible.
4. EXTERIOR SIGNAGE PERFORMANCE STANDARDS• Sign contractor to provide shop drawings
of all signs for review and approval by CSU Landscape Architect prior to fabrication.
• Ensure all fasteners and mounting devices do not impede sign messaging and are hidden whenever feasible.
• Trim any trees and plants that obscure sign face on a regular basis.
II. COMMON ELEMENTS49
b. Exterior Signage Family OverviewThe CSU Exterior Signage Standards are organized into a hierarchy of signs. The signage shall follow a logical progression, from a point of origin to the desired destination. As individuals move closer to their destination, the scale of the sign becomes progressively smaller and the level of the message more detailed.

The OvalOnce the geographic center of campus, the Oval remains for
many the sentimental heart of Colorado State University. With
a stately allée and Oval Drive lined by majestic American elms
nearly a century old, the Oval was designed in 1909 as an
aesthetically pleasing way to connect main campus buildings.
Surrounding the Oval are historic buildings including Johnson
Hall, which was the original student center, Laurel Hall, which first housed animals for the veterinary program, and the Music
Building, which was built as a library.

c. Exterior Signage Types The CSU exterior signage standards include:• University Trailblazer Signs • Campus Identifi cation Signs • Vehicular/Bicycle Directional Signs• Sub-Campus Signs• Building Signs• Informational Signs• Bus/Shuttle Stop Signs• Interpretive Signs• Memorial Signs• Temporary Signs• Regulatory Signs
a. University Trailblazer Signs
University Trailblazer signage consists of signs that are located off-campus and direct visitors to the campuses. CSU trailblazer signage includes Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT)trailblazer signage and off-campus trailblazer signs within Fort Collins.
CDOT TRAILBLAZER SIGNAGE STANDARDS
CDOT trailblazer signs are located along I-25, Highway 287 and the major entry roads leading into Fort Collins including Harmony Road, Prospect Road and Mulberry Street/Highway 14. CDOT typically regulate this signage and efforts should be coordinated to ensure that sign messages are combined to minimize sign clutter and to ensure that any CSU logo is being utilized properly.
Photo 2.x Example of CDOT-controlled University Trailblazer sign along Highway 14.
II. COMMON ELEMENTS52
OFF/ON-CAMPUSTRAILBLAZER SIGNAGE STANDARDSThese types of trailblazer signs are often located along the major streets leading to campus as well as the streets immediately adjacent to campus. Typically, this is not university property and permission will need to be obtained to install such signage along this R.O.W. Such trailblazer signage is necessary and helpful to guide visitors to key destinations that they may be experiencing for the fi rst time: dormitories, the student center, tours of the campus as prospective students, etc.
These trailblazer signs include 2 options: with the CSU identity only and with the CSU identity and university destinations. In some locations, only the CSU logo is necessary, to direct visitors to campus in general. In other locations, trailblazer signs need to point to specifi c on-campus locations along with the CSU logo.

Even Now
Even now the ground is slowly shifting
beneath your feet. Even nowzones of weakness are building
behind your back, ready to crack
into fractures. Even now pressuresmay exceed the power of rocks
to resist. Think of it:
thousands of faults lace this region.You live inside a ring of fire
where walls can loom up overnight.
Forces in this landscapeare trying to rearrange your world.
You stand here feeling
you can control nothing,
at any second it is youwho may be heaved up,
and broken.
“Fault-Finding” - Mary CrowColorado Poet Laureate 1996 - 2010
Colorado State University Emeritus Professor
What’s in a Name?Agricultural College of ColoradoColorado State University's roots go back to 1870, when
the institution was founded as the Agricultural College
of Colorado. The school first opened its doors to five
students on September 1, 1879, with President Elijah
Edwards and two faculty members.
Colorado State College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts (Colorado A&M)The governing-board approved a student petition to
change the college's name to more accurately reflect the
diversity of its academic programs by the 1930’s. The school became the Colorado State College of Agriculture
and Mechanic Arts, or Colorado A&M, in 1935.
Colorado State UniversityAs Colorado's land-grant college facilities and
enrollment progressed, so did its academic offerings. The State Board of Agriculture approved a doctorate
degree in civil engineering in 1951, and three years later
allowed other qualified departments to offer the
advanced degree.
Colorado A&M President Morgan believed students
earning this prestigious degree should hold it from a
university rather than from a school with a name connoting a narrow technical college. So began the
campaign to change the name of Colorado A&M. Vice
President for Administration Harry "Hap" Dotson oversaw the campaign, and on May 1, 1957, the
Colorado General Assembly approved the new name of
Colorado State University.
Where is the university’s first building?The cornerstone for the first “main” building, Old Main, was set July 27, 1878, on the southwest corner of West Laurel Street and South College Avenue. Within a year of its December 1878 completion, wall cracks, an improperly connected lightning rod and roof gutters that dropped water too close to the foundation threatened to ruin the structure. Repairs took time and money, but made the structure ready for the fall 1879 opening of the Colorado Agricultural College.
On May 8, 1970, campus peace activists continued with the second day of a student strike as a response to the U.S. invasion of Cambodia and the deaths of four students at Kent State University. That evening, the group held a war moratorium concert in the College Avenue Gymnasium. But sometime during the concert, one or more arsonists apparently set Old Main ablaze and completely destroyed the 92-year-old cornerstone of Colorado State. An attempt also was made to burn down the ROTC firing-range building.

BUILDING ADDRESS SIGN STANDARDThis sign is intended only for building identifi cation but also for identifi cation by emergency responders. The name of the building and the address are required per Poudre Fire Authority requirements. Note that this sign utilizes the previous version of the CSU Gold.
Some building address signs had additional sign panels added at a later date (see example to the right). This is no longer allowed, unless the secondary panel needs to be updated. The building directory sign standard should be used when needing to include department/organizational information inside the building.

Clark... ...A Namesake Building
Several people helped Colorado State
emerge into true university status in May
1957. Dean of Faculty Andrew Clark, who had taught math skills applicable to all
disciplines, was a firm believer in
broad-based learning. However, he also
was instrumental in working with
University President Morgan to seek sponsored research to build up the university.
II. COMMON ELEMENTS72
BUILDING-MOUNTED, FENCE-MOUNTED AND WALL-MOUNTED SIGNAGE STANDARDSBuilding-mounted and fence-mounted signage is not allowed on Main Campus as a general sign standard. One exception is where an existing building-mounted sign needs to be replaced, However, some CSU agricultural-based facilities, such as South, Foothills Campus or ARDEC, require the use of building-mounted and fence-mounted signs for simplicity and economical reasons. Typically, these signs either denote a facility and address, or a facility entrance.
Some wall-mounted signs on concrete retaining walls are allowed, where needed. Wall-mounted signs on stone or brick walls are to be avoided.
A request for a building-mounted sign on Main Campus can be forwarded to the CSU Physical Development Committee for further review. Contact Facilities Management Landscape Architecture offi ce for more information.

II. COMMON ELEMENTS73
BUILDING-MOUNTED, FENCE-MOUNTED AND WALL-MOUNTED SIGNAGE STANDARDS, CONT.
Typically, a building-mounted sign shall follow the same vinyl material, color and type face standards as the building address sign standard. Utilize the Foothills typeface standard for signs on that campus. Sizes may need to adjust to fi t the specifi c location. Where possible on primary buildings, the CSU logo shall be included on the sign.

The OvalOnce the geographic center of campus, the Oval remains for
many the sentimental heart of Colorado State University. With
a stately allée and Oval Drive lined by majestic American elms
nearly a century old, the Oval was designed in 1909 as an aesthetically pleasing way to connect main campus buildings.
Surrounding the Oval are historic buildings including Johnson
Hall, which was the original student center, Laurel Hall, which
first housed animals for the veterinary program, and the Music
Building, which was built as a library.

PLAN
This is one of the longest operating weather stations in the western U.S. monitoring temperature, humidity,
precipitation (rain, hail and snow), evaporation, winds, solar radiation, clouds, visibility, barometric pressure and
soil temperatures. Weather observations for research, teaching and public information have been conducted on
campus since the early 1870s. Continuous support for this historic weather station has been provided by the
Colorado Agricultural Experiment Station since 1889. Early data collected here aided agricultural and
irrigation research and development. Beginning in the 1930s, this station provided weather support for aviation and transportation safety. Uses continue to expand today.
Data are publicly available for tracking climate trends, variations and extremes and their impacts here in northern Colorado.
