Voice: Paula Scher

Achievement First Endeavor Middle School

Paula Scher's prominent and colorful work is inspirational. These examples of large-scale typography demand to be read and offer up-beat, humorous, and energetic messages. She really has a knack for injecting space with extraordinary energy and voice.

I wish my middle school had looked more like this! How could anyone walk through this building in a bad mood? With the bright, energetic colors and large-scale positive messages taking over the environment, I can only imagine that Scher's designs help boost the morales of kids in a difficult, transitory time of life.
