TUESDAY 23RD APRIL, Tangible Map

DESIGN PROCESS

During this lesson, we had to explain and show to our teammates what is the meaning of our map and why we created it.

MAP 1

For the first map, this map focuses on Tangibility and physical. I focused on green exit signs and how many there are in different locations during my journey through KL. I mostly focus on exit signs because wherever you go there should at least be one in case of emergencies. The location that had the most exit sign was Pavilion, a shopping complex which had a sign in every floor and within two to three shops away each other.

My thought of creating this map was not to make it too detail and create a cartoon vibe which I find was more fitting and suited myself better. In the map shows three different days, starts on April 19th and circles to the left until it stops by Pavilion. Then continues to Tealive and the next day April 22nd.

What I think is working good for my map is how easy it is to understand where I was and what time I was at that location. Because of the simplicity of the drawing it made the map more easy to read. However, what I do think that needs to be improve is putting more details of the train station I was in during my journey and next time try to explore all the area of the locations so the amount of exit signs are more accurate.

Overall, I like how simple my map is and how it gives colour that attracts but I would like to add in more locations so it verifies on the difference there are in different areas.
