TEAM 1 PLAN

The next step in this workshop process was the design charette where the two teams were able to develop a plan and/or model of their vision of the Solano Community College Campus Enrichment Plan. The following graphics and summaries are the results of this process.

PLAN ELEMENTS
• Campus signage at main entry/administration building shall orient along front road or along sides of building
• Pilasters with directional signage at entry
• Improved gateway to gym and cosmetology area
