Making Signage Modular


One of the main considerations with signage is long term usage and customisation - in LCA's example, if a degree course was to be added or removed, the signage would have to be changed too. If the system wasn't suitably adjustable, a big problem is created. By designing the signage in a way that it can be added to or taken away, it is ensured that the solution is future-proof. 

My solution involves a modular 'shelving' system similar to the 606 Universal Shelving System by Dieter Rams. A system of metal rails of uniform sizes will allow the signs to be slid in or out, allowing for studio re-allocation, degree removal/adjustment, and the addition of temporary signage.
