University of Nebraska: Kiewit Hall College of Engineering

Solution: Dimensional Innovations partnered with the University of Nebraska to design and fabricate a comprehensive donor recognition program and environmental branding system for Kiewit Hall. DI implemented a tiered recognition strategy—from modular plaques to custom, digitally integrated installations—ensuring clear and impactful acknowledgment of every contribution. In addition to donor recognition, DI worked closely with university stakeholders to identify key branding opportunities, incorporate campus traditions, and create interactive touchpoints for students and visitors. Comprehensive project management, spanning initial concept to final installation, enabled seamless execution and consistency throughout the seven-story facility. The solution emphasized integration, scalability, and alignment with Nebraska Engineering’s mission at every step.

Across the building, DI introduced immersive graphics, distinctive type, and branded storytelling that reinforce Husker pride and showcase the college’s academic and research excellence. These choices increase student engagement, improve navigation, and encourage interaction with the college’s achievements and values. By unifying design, fabrication, and installation, DI delivered a cohesive visual language that elevates the student experience and strengthens Nebraska Engineering's identity.

Impact:  Kiewit Hall now serves as a dynamic, brand-forward engineering hub that honors donors and celebrates student and faculty achievements. The integrated recognition system builds lasting connections between the college and its supporters, while environmental graphics and storytelling foster collaboration, spirit, pride, and a sense of belonging throughout the building.

By blending environmental design, donor recognition, and immersive graphics, Dimensional Innovations helped the University of Nebraska create a facility that inspires future engineers and reflects ongoing innovation.
