Below are the pictograms I decided on to show in the final critique, they either take something from the architecture of the building or a key aspect of the use of the building.
The 8 places that I chose were purely for the fact that there were all quite close together on a map so that I could show their whereabouts.
Trinity Shopping Centre
West Yorkshire Playhouse
Leeds Art Gallery
Belgrave Music Hall and Canteen
Kirkgate Market
Leeds College of Music
Leeds Museum
o2 Academy Leeds
I also created a set of arrows using drawings shown previously, I thought these could be used next to the pictograms to show the direction of the attraction. The different colours could represent the different sections.
I got some valuable feedback from the final crit, some of the advice I will act on to improve my final designs and to develop my mock ups, some I will consider in my evaluation for future projects. Some suggestions listed below:
- Adding the pictogram into the middle of the circular arrow
- Using colours for the pictograms rather than the arrows
- Dropping the pictograms for the College of Music and West Yorkshire Playhouse as they don't look coherent with the rest of the designs
- Create an actual arrow shape using my patterns
I really agree with the comment about College of Music and WYP, I believe the reason they don't match is because they don't take from the architecture and don't have that line drawing aesthetic. I am also going to further develop the arrow idea and see what I can produce using Illustrator to merge drawings.
