CAMPAIGN VISUALS

Mid-Century and Modern

 

The shapes and patterns developed for the Our Time campaign are modern interpretations of Trinity’s iconic mid-century details from notable doors across campus.

These doors symbolize the pathways that bring students to Trinity, guide them through their education, and truly immerse them in a top liberal arts experience. The icons explore these familiar campus masterpieces, many hand-carved by Lynn Ford, master wood craftsman and brother of O’Neil Ford, the original architect of Trinity’s skyline campus.
