(1996) Information Graphics: Design of Understanding
|
This graphic system helps guide museum visitors through a maze of visual stimuli and fragmented gallery spaces to convey a comprehensible organizational scheme. Informative signs attract visitors to an often-overlooked exhibition in a seven-story museum; give a unified visual identity to meandering mezzanine areas; create an illusion of spaciousness; and provide a hierarchical and integrated architectural aesthetic.
