After my 1-1 critique ,I had a lot of good advice how to better improve my signage's system and quality.I also found a better typeface that ave better texture.

Fruit and Vegetable Market, phase 3

This is what I showed on sunday:
After talking to Maya about my work and seeing what other people in the class created I noted the changes I need to make to my icons.
These changes are:
-create smoother lines
-the uneven floors icon needs to be clearer to show uneven floors rather than a box on the ground
-make some of the white lines thicker or get rid of them
-trash icon: less detail in the trash to continue the unity between it and the other icons
-hands: need to all give the same feel, stroke etc.
-fruits icon: change to fit the feel/mood, not so much detail like in the pineapple
-vegetables: smoother lines
-tap: less detail
-icons may need a box/border around them
-space between arabic words may need to be smaller
-english type needs to change, no serif, needs to be more organic

Villagio Food Court, icons

I tried to make two icons for each problem so that I have an option in the end, when refining the last chosen ones.

These are two examples of icons I made for "Talking softly" icon. Because usually food courts are very noisy and it is hard to hear one another.

Stand In Line

Throw Trash

Arrows

No Left Over Food

Villagio Food Court, Sketches

To begin with my icons I started to sketch them using a a grid from graph paper to make the squares that define the icon.

These sketches include:

- no left over food.

- stand in line

- bathroom signage

Villagio Food Court

At first I started to look at and analyze the feel of the Food Court in Villagio. I was looking at thins such as color, sound, and even the way people behave. At first I started to analyze colors in the Food Court. They are all bright colors such as Red, Orange, Yellow, and Blue.

Then I had a better idea when I came closer to each restaurant. I noticed the LCD of the cash machine that has the money amount in a geometric, digital, shape. So I thought I would use it for my whole signage system since every restaurant has one. So it's the common thing in all restaurants.
