Wayfinding Design for Community Greenhouse
Baltimore
Are you a graphic designer with experience in environmental design and wayfinding? An organization in the Baltimore neighborhood of Old Goucher is opening a greenhouse in the courtyard of the historic Hooper House. In addition to producing and selling plants and produce on site, the Greenhouse aims to support environmental education and urban sustainability by providing weekly classes and workshops. As a new organization in the neighborhood, and one of many businesses housed in the Hooper House, they are in need of a wayfinding and signage plan.
This project begins in November 2024, and we are seeking environmental graphic designers and/or architects with experience designing wayfinding plans and creative commercial signage. Please email Julia DiMauro at jdimauro@ndc-md.org with questions or to express your interest in the project.
Check back soon! More to come...

NDC’s annual awards honor the many dedicated volunteers, community partners, and local leaders who make our places great.
Put simply, NDC wouldn’t exist without the dedication of our amazing volunteers and community partners. Every year, we celebrate them!
Our volunteers come from a range of backgrounds.
If you want to support NDC’s work and have experience in the below disciplines (or something related), we’d love to collaborate.
There’s an amazing symbiotic relationship between our volunteers and community members.
The local designers and experts who dedicate their talents to community projects learn from the community about the area’s needs and challenges, while residents get exposed to key design and implementation processes. Volunteers report their experience to be engaging and enriching!
“Working with NDC has taught me to listen to every unique voice in a design process and to always include those voices in design decisions.”
— Carol Currotto, Interior Designer
