The City of Chelsea, MA in conjunction with local teen environmental activists fought to clean up and preserve the Chelsea Mill Creek, a salt marsh in one of the most densely populated areas on the east coast. Proun designed a series of visually arresting panels featuring graphic illustrations by Leslie Evans to target and engage a young and bilingual audience. Map panels orient visitors to the mill creek that feeds the marsh, while other panels interpret the natural and cultural history of the creek­—it’s diverse inhabitants, historic uses, and the ongoing efforts to maintain it’s health.

You guys rock! I just got my packet in the mail with the sign designs! WOW! Amazing!
They look so nice! I am very, very impressed.
