Directional Symbols
Symbols and signs that tells us where to go surrounds us
all. When you go to school, or your job, you probably use more of
these than you can imagine. With these five examples I've tried to
go deeper into more detailed symbols, i.e the symbols that shows you
where you should put your coins when you buy a bus ticket.
A symbol of a hand that shows direction
with the index finger where you need
to press when you make a phone call
at a pay phone.
A gender symbol/sign at the toilet that
shows people in what direction they
should go to use to correct bathroom.
A directional symbol on a fire extinguisher
that shows you in what direction you should
aim at the fire. Consider the possibility that
one who does not have english skills
can see this and still understand.
This green light for pedestrians
shows us when and where to cross.
A pair of legs that shows you
where to cross the street.
