Monday 26th November

Today we started a new brief called ‘Lost + Found’: Super graphics.

The first part the session was going through the brief with Soof. It was really interesting learning about Super Graphics.

What are Supergraphics?

These are large-scale graphics which areused in outdoor spaces, wayfinding andidentifying signage, illustrative murals and corporate branding. 

What is wayfinding?

Wayfinding is a system that helps usersnavigate through a physical environment and enhance their understanding and experience of the space.

  • Clerkenwall Design Week
  • Dreamland – Typography
  • Old Street Station

The Graphics BA tutor came in to talk to us:

  • Inform, Instruct, Engage, Experience
  • Zebra Crossings re designs
  • There were a few names being spoke about but I don’t know how to spell them but:
  • Morak Mirysof
  • Hate Press
  • Carlos Cruiz Diaz
  • Looking at super graphics inside and outside

The next part of the session was to go on a site visit from the Greenwich Station to Ravensbourne, taking photographs. I took over 50 photographs so I am only going to include a few, but the rest is in my sketchbook.

The next part of the session I was thinking of ideas, and creating a powerpoint to print off all of my photographs, also taking photographs of google maps using different settings: satellite, maps, 3d and 2d of the areas from a birds eye view.

SHOW THESE IN MY SKETCHBOOK
