Symbol Design



Chosen Theme: Art Movements
Sketchbook experimentations looking at simplifying the style of Futurism, Constructivism and Dadaism.




Final symbols drawn in Adobe Illustrator


Using these symbols I then placed them on top of photos to visualise what an exhibition/gallery space could look like using the symbols to represent the various themes that could run through a gallery

 Developing the idea of these symbolised gallery spaces, another idea could be to have arrows and elevator buttons to navigate visitors around the gallery.


Research project (Nottingham Castle)





     Final Outcome:
