Graphics Project 13 - Way-finding and Maps
Getting into this project was hard for me because I had no interest in it. My journey to and from Ravensbourne are not very far so I didn't quite know where my inspiration would come from. I decided to look into ways of presenting maps and this lead me to books as well as the internet. I wanted to do something that would be striking and quite bold and when I found a piece by Jenni Sparks I was inspired deeply. I wanted to include the tube map because it was something that I enjoyed playing about with and decided to make it more literal in the sense of space and place around London itself. I tried to recreate Jenni Spark's idea however it turned out to be exactly like hers and this was something that concerned me as it was not original. If i was to try and do this again I would change some of the styles in which I drew the places because it will help differ my work. However this project could be improved if I did not rush the process of gaining an idea.
