Information on the Floor: Indicators Drawn on the Ground

A ground-level guidance system for a pedestrian area. Since the facades are already occupied by signs, directional information is placed on the ground: at major forks, there are metal letters and arrows embedded in the paving, indicating directions and distances to the station, parking lot, and park; there is also a narrow, long paving strip of a different color on the ground, extending from the entrance to guide people to the main nodes. The metal letters are brass or stainless steel, flush with the paving to prevent tripping, and polished bright from years of foot traffic. The image is a top-down view, clearly showing all this information. Avoid: using freestanding signs and hanging signs that obstruct views, ground letters that protrude and cause tripping, stickers and paints that wear out easily, making information too dense and cluttered.

一個徒步區的地面導引系統。因為立面已經被招牌佔滿,方向資訊改為落在地面:主要的分岔點有嵌在鋪面中的金屬字與箭頭,標示往車站、往停車場、往公園的方向與距離;地面上另有一條不同顏色的窄長鋪面帶,從入口一路延伸引導到主要的節點。金屬字是黃銅或不鏽鋼,與鋪面齊平不絆腳,因為長年踩踏而被磨亮。畫面是俯視角度,可以完整看見這些資訊。避免:使用立牌與吊牌佔據視線、讓地面的字凸出造成絆倒、使用貼紙與塗料容易磨損、把資訊做得過於密集雜亂。
