Central is a mixed-use development project in downtown Silver Spring, Maryland. Centered around the modern residential units, this 70,000-sq-ft building offers 243 units, 15,000-sq-ft of ground retail, and impressive amenities. The signage created for the building was inspired by the bold, contemporary geometry of the apartment building's exterior and the industrial-modern aesthetic of the interior.
