Research

Whilst doing the homework research I also came across some other really cool spatial type examples.

This website has some great ones   http://theultralinx.com/2015/07/20-awesome-optical-illusions-typography/   although I will say that the whole paint perspective thing is a bit overdone! It is something I will definitely be staying away from! But otherwise my favourite from this page was:


























I really like playing with hanging/suspension and love how something so minute and detailed appears close up vs from afar.

This website also had some really great things   https://wayfindingthesis.wordpress.com/   and some really different ones too. This was where I found the parking garage example, which I didn't like, but I really liked this one which used symbol as pattern and meaning:


















As I was putting my own images into the Google doc for sharing on Monday I was also inspired by some of the images other students had gathered and saved them for closer reflection. They were:













Given my love of stairs - this definitely took my fancy!













This was just really clever - it's in a blood clinic and mimics the blood coming out in the tube and felt really fluid and inventive.













This caught my eye because of it's subtlety - the mirror idea is so creative and the other detailing in the structure is beautiful.













This was just cool because it's something I myself have also noticed and is a quirky take on the traditional man/woman shape as well as the use of letters and words.














Last but not least - this was cool because it's quite a simple idea - and quite easy/affordable to be able to generate.
