• an investigation of as to what is meant by the terms as individual and how it adds up to a greater whole when all of them come together • deals with the current scenario and then proposing a holistic solution to this in the public domain • an example wherein we could see how various disciplines come together to deliver a holistic design solution 01

| IITB

VCP604 Identity, Wayfinding and Signage for Public Hospitals [Xaxa Aman Rupesh]


• identify the various aspects which give birth to an ineffective Wayfinding in a Public Hospital

• this would then lead to a design solution which may overshoot the domains of Visual Communication • output pertaining to the Visual Communication part of the Project would be dealt with

Decoding the Door Numbering System 1.

The first thing a person notices is the COLOR of the board which tells her/ him as to which function he is at.

2.

The first letter tells us the Wing of the Hospital Complex as in the case alongside it is B WING.

3.

Secondly it tells us the floor it is in, in this case FLOOR NUMBER 1.

4.

And then, finally it tells us what the door number is in this case, NUMBER 01.
