Studio Brief 1: Wayfinding

Brief:

Focusing on the subjective nature, design a personal sign system of your own interpretation of the space around you.
Explore poetic signs, imaginary sign systems, conflicting sign systems etc.
The usage, functionality and display (interplay between the objective and subjective) should be considered when resolving your chosen strategy.

Mandatory Requirements:
  • Functional navigational wayfinding system, for your selected environment, informed by through research and development
  • Range of potential responses explored for the brief
  • The identification and selection of an appropriate, consistent typeface
  • The development of pictograms for directions and identification of facilities
  • The identification and selection of a limited and appropriate colour swatch with associated PMS, CMYK and RGB values

Deliverables:

  • Produced at least one sign/supergraphic/etc. at actual size and document it within the appropriate context in Leeds
  • Mock-ups (in Photoshop/Premiere/etc.) of the entire system in context
  • Minimum of 6 design boards, presenting and discussing the following: 
  • Brief Interpretation/Research
  • Initial design ideas
  • Design development
  • Final design/Production
  • Evaluation

This studio brief will consist of 3 other study tasks which are to form the main body of research.

1. Wayfinding research
2. Objective signs of subjective things
3. Subjective signs of objective things
