signage... arrow dilemma

Not too sure about the arrow, I wanted to retain the angles of and 'hexagonalness' of the logo, but not sure if it fits in.

More signage development

I printed some of the exhibition signage today to check its legibility. The header type is about 60pt and the main body is 16pt. I feel this should be fine considering the confined space in which they'll be presented, as its unlikely they'll be viewed from a great distance.



Show "as is" from a distance, it's unlikely it'll be viewed from this far.


Showing the scale of the boards. While it seems low down for me, I have to consider that many if not most people are shorter then me.

existing promo site for an exhibition....

Nice and simple

exhibition guide booklet

The front cover would actually be dye cut/acetate and the green of the 'contents' page would show through. The image on the 3_venue spread is temporary.

This wont be produced, as the costs would be too high, however if finances were available I would...

signage experimentations...

To display information as well as the work, one solution is to utilise cardboard sheets. These are durable, but also more economical then wood. One supplier online, sells sheets for £7 which can make four 'panels'. The panels are just under 6ft high and just over 30cm wide and are produced in black as well as the default brown colour.

I've produced a mockup to scale with sheets of paper....



Text - headers will be 30-40pt in Futura Condensed Medium and main text 14-16pt in Helvetica Neau.


1x Craig for scale, identity protected due to looking gormless. They're shorter then me, but I have to bear in mind that not everyone is a giant (or so people like to call me).


As soon as I have access to a printer, I'll print out various mock signs to see what text sizes work.
