Wednesday Panel Presentation

We felt confident presenting our idea today and got a lot of feedback:

*red poles carry other meanings - some existing red poles/totems have Maori significance in Wellington.

*if we're going to take an idea from the suburban concept keep with it's tone - i.e. keep the communication/wording simple and practical.

*go back to blue as the colour you work with as red, orange and yellow have too many other significances.

*go big! scale the idea of the projections onto Te Papa or something wild to mirror the large impact of a tsunami.

*Tom talked about going back to using levels as a visual aesthetic however we all disagree with this comment as we delved into the issue and decided it wasn't a good strategy.

*think about how something functions before and during an emergency situation.

*using the existing structure of a lamp post is great - because it has height and is strong.

*make a clear and directional system.

And as a cohort a comment was made regarding how all of our different systems work together - i.e. red tsunami lamp posts, red cable car instructions - it all gets messy and confusing as a whole.
