About Vanke City Signage

Vanke City is a wayfinding signage system created for a mixed-use development in Yantai. The guide panels are made of ultra white tempered glass, a material chosen to stay visually quiet within the landscape. In sunlight the white information text blends with the background, so the panels recede among the walls, flowers and trees. The graphic language follows the interior design concept and uses pixel elements, a modular form and bright colors to build a recognizable brand image. Each panel measures 600 mm in width, 10 mm in depth and 2200 mm in height.
