On The Public Space Wayfinding System Design Functionality

Plan and Design is actually a sort of way to problems. Take Sign System Planand Design for example. It is specifically designed to settle the problems of bothtraffic direction and personnel shifting in public places. The answers to all problemsseem to be more convenient and efficient on that premise. The space we live in maybe either as small as a monomer residential building, or as large as the inter-city hub.It is simply like the interrelated blood vessels in life where every drop of blood andevery cell of naturalist can get to every corner of the body. The sole difference lies intheir mobilities. The process of metabolism in life abides by obviouslywell-disciplined regularity due to the highly evolved system itself, whereas humanactivity has a more casual spontaneity in the sophisticated space. If not accuratelydirected, human activity is much more likely to fail to interpret space function andsatisfy people’s needs as well.Sign System provides the space users-human beings with scientific guidance（The visual sense is the principal guidance. Meanwhile, senses of hearing, gustation,tactility, and others are also inclusive. Extensive use of various mediums to stimulatepeople’s sensory organs acts as a rudder to steer the spatial direction, which are thebeneficial complement and the significant approach in the future Sign System Planand Design, thus elaborating that Sign System differs from Version System.)to assist them locate precisely in a completely unfamiliar environment. Arrival is thepurpose of this process. However, the value of Sign System Plan and Design is toreach most quickly and conveniently. In the process of fulfilling the Arrival, thepublic will enjoy sensorial joy and develop a definite understanding (including culture,quality,etc) of the location. All of them belong to aesthetic aspect. Moreover, sensorialjoy alone will not solve problems, such as how to make the sign system pellucid,expedient, or even ubiquitous.Based on the puzzles in the study of Sign System Plan and Design, the authorattempts to summarize his past experience and expects to make new discoveries. As amatter of fact, it turns out to be a terrific way to integrate his thoughts. Having clearlydocumented, the author possesses a refreshed comprehension of effective method andtheory of Sign System Plan and Design. Humble as some of the problems may be,they tend to lead people to think intensively and have an epiphany.If the author has to admit adhering to certain principles in his completion of thisarticle, the key is to learn from practice, and under the guidance of which, the researchis performed. Theory research and design practice are under the conductor ofhumanistic spirit. Everything is based on the convenience of Plan and Design.For any sins of commission and omission that remain,the author alone is to blameand sincerely welcome your advice and comments.
