The “Green October” exhibition was sponsored by One Voice and design industry organizations. The intent of the exhibition was to promote and encourage the design community for its efforts in using environmentally responsible materials and construction in their projects. The entry signage to the exhibition had to reflect the same integrity and concerns of the exhibit. Using real waxed October leaves (and nontoxic glue) was the responsible solution.
