MIT Values Projects

Lobby 7 Banners

In September 2022, the Institute installed five billboard-scale banners in Lobby 7. Drawing on the words of the MIT Values Statement and illuminating them with line-art illustrations and a vivid color scheme, this installation is intended to promote the values to MIT's on-campus community, as well as visitors to the Institute's front door.

The installation was also an opportunity to develop design directions and a style-guide for any on-campus groups that would like to promote MIT Values in their own setting—with t-shirts, coffee mugs, banners, bookmarks, etc. A copy of the style guide is available here.

Photographs of the Lobby 7 installation process are also available for free use by any MIT office or program.
