here is our final simplified idea of what the exhibition floor plan would look like, we have removed the map from the door way and added lines instead, these then split off and direct people to different areas of the gallery. I believe this makes the space more approachable and friendly for people as galleries are usually intimidating spaces. It also helps in terms of displaying the work as it wont just be random it will be categorised into postcode areas. The lines will be created by tape or vinyl stickers on the floor, they will match the style of the way finding used outside of the library therefore tying everything together and making it recognisable to people.
The arrows used outside to direct people to the exhibition will again be stuck on the floor, in a society where people spend most of their time looking down at their phone this is an eye catching way finding method. The stickers will come in directions from heavily populated areas of Leeds such as trinity and the train station, this will attract people who would not usually enter but may find it interesting.
To get the attention of other people who might not be looking down, the same idea could be blown up and printed on a wall around leeds to direct people and create interest. As the arrows contain the name of the exhibition it acts as an advertisement technique and creates publicity for the event as well as directing people to it. If people saw this but didnt have time to follow the arrow they could google it and find out what it was.
