The primary information is flight-related information, the secondary information concern the service facilities in the airport. - Inspiration
- The aim in designing the new wayfinding system was to create a calm atmosphere and a balanced general view without creating visual disturbances. The choice of typography and icons as well as the lighting and coloring make orientation easier for international guests.
The most important means besides using the new font, Fago OT from Ole Schäfer is the introduction of high contrast colors. Our focus was on functional and psychological aspects such as good visibility, readability and barrier free information.
The decisive factor for the effectiveness of the new guidance and orientation system is the complete information chain. - Image Credits
