My wayfinding system will be placed around the city centre. Each location's pictograms will be placed at another nearby locations, with directional cues to point in the general direction, with the distance also included.
Whilst walking my planned route, I got the chance to discover ideal places to implement my system - taking advantage of big blank walls and empty pavements where my signs would be seen. I created a plan for each sign and calculated distance and direction from each sign to the corresponding location. These are displayed on my site map.
The system will be placed as follows:
Kirkgate market pictograms placed outside City Varieties Music Hall (0.2 miles)
Briggate pictograms placed on a high wall in between the markets and Corn exchange (0.1 miles west)
City Varieties pictogram placed on a blank wall next to the Markets (0.2 miles west)
Corn Exchange pictograms placed within Briggate (0.1 miles east)
Location for Kirkgate market:
Location for Briggate:
Location for City Varieties:
Location for Corn Exchange:
(lots of blank spaces in Briggate to place pictograms, exact location to be determined)
As well as a place for each location I would like to place all my pictograms together in a place not related to any of the locations - a blank space such as a pavement. From here people can use the pictograms to go to whichever location they choose, and then they can continue their journey on from each location.
