Emily Carr University Wayfinding
SUMMARY »
During my third year of design studies, I was chosen along with three other students to redesign the existing Emily Carr University signage and wayfinding systems. Our proposed system (which was eventually accepted) was a total orientation system that aimed to give students, staff and visitors more automony within the school. After months of research, the system culminated in a new room numbering schematic, an architectural signage system, handheld maps and a database-fed online system containing interactive maps and faculty information. These components were designed to work together to improve the users understanding of the school and the resources available to them.
