Zoo Way Finding

The goal of this project was to create effective way finding for a public place. I decided to create way finding for a Southwick’s Zoo. My way finding design consists of three colored paths that lead you through the zoo. Along each path are colored signs with illustrations of the animals that are around. Along with the way finding I designing a new app for the zoo. The app consists of a map of the entire zoo that displays where each colored path leads. By selecting animal areas on the map one can also see where animals are located. The app also provides interactive screens for parents to use with their children throughout their day at the zoo. These interactive screens provide information for each animal along with a video and a listening piece for children to hear. The goal of the way finding and interactive app is for children and parents to be able to explore the zoo easily while learning as much as possible during their visit.
