Wayfinding&Mapping Day 1

6th January 


This is a quick idea to show a way of mapping using basic lines to depicts the journey.




I have taken this origanal idea and used the story 'The Hairy Toe' to use for a map. In my opinion this idea was difficult to translate as I couldn't think of a great way to display it. This image is a rough design showing he foot prints from the old lady and the monster, the colours e.g. Yellow, light blue and dark blue reflect what time of the day the characters were moving.


This design is basics on the places I've been throughout my life. I've traveled to Berlin, America (San Francisco), I've also been places in on London such as the London Eye and The O2 to see concerts.
I have used symbols that depict the place and arranged them in a particular order. Theses particular symbols spell out my name, I have used the O2 and The London Eye to spell an 'R';The London Eye on its own to spell out the 'O'', I have used the 'S' in the San Francisco logo, the 'I' depicted in the Golden Gate Bridge and lastly the 'E' reflected in the bear symbol for Berlin. 
This image displays two pieces of information using my name to show that this map is about me and where I have been in my life. In my opinion I felt like this was the best out come of the day as it is t what it appears.
