I want the icons to be followed on the ground as if they are guides for each department so on the gravel they should be painted with a white outline and be followed by there colour - and if the icons are on lighter surfaces then black outlines may be used
Here is a poster I made using inks it is not the actual designs that I want to use but it is a portrayal of my ideas the black outlined figures would be directing around the school and they will all be allocated different colours (this will be depicted with a key board). These figures will all be different and will have characteristics of certain strands/ areas for example the canteen directory may have a chefs hat and use a yellow coloured arrow.
The cathedral of Milan, the city's iconic building, dedicated to Santa Maria Nascente is one of the most famous buildings and complexes in the world, a mixture of late Gothic French Gothic and Renaissance
This project was initiated in 1386 by the ambition of the Duke of Milan Gian Galeazzo Visconti and Archbishop Antonio da Saluzzo who wanted to give the city a religious monument worthy of its importance. Until its completion in 1887, passed through the hands of different architects, ie a product of several ingenious and creative artists of the design and construction, among whom stands the architect Simon Arsenigo who is credited with the first design But the technical direction changed many times since its inception. Simon de Arsenigo Nicolo became Bonaventura, then successively to a host of architects like John of Freiburg, Joaquin de Grassi, Enrique de Gmunden, Marco da Corona John Solaro and Pellegrino Pellegrini.I chose to look at this building because it is different then the other ones but still very stylish obviously the period in which this was built and designed was much earlier and I like its edgy, majestic look. I like the triangular ‘climbing’ build that makes the two sides meet at the top.
56 Leonard Street
The skyscraper by Herzog and de Meuron includes 145 residential condominiums located at the intersection of Church Street and Leonard Street in Tribeca Historic District of downtown Manhattan, at 56 Leonard Street.
This is the first skyscraper to be built by the Swiss team, although they have faced bigger projects (at least in the urban and social realms), so far they have never had the opportunity to experiment with the construction of American excellence, and the best place for its debut is New York City. The cost of the apartments varies between 3.5 to 33 million dollars. Design Architect

Starting around 1872, multiple organizations were founded in order to bring an art gallery to Milwaukee, as the city was still a growing port town with little or no places to hold major art exhibitions. Over at least nine years, all attempts to build a major art gallery had failed. In 1881, exhibitions were held at Milwaukee's Exposition Hall, which was Milwaukee's primary event venue at the time. Shortly after that year, Alexander Mitchell donated all of her collection into constructing Milwaukee's first permanent art gallery in the city's history. The museum's history began in 1882 when the Milwaukee Museum of Fine Arts was founded. The museum dissolved six years later. In 1888, the Milwaukee Art Association was created by a group of German panorama artists and local businessmen; its first home was the Layton Art Gallery. In 1911, the Milwaukee Art Institute, another building constructed to hold other exhibitions and collections, was completed. The institute was built right next to the Layton Art Gallery. It was designed by Santiago Calatrava.
I really like this design I think it is bold and dynamic almost like a work of art in its self. It looks kind of like it is being held up only by strings and like the other one looks a bit clustered and chaotic which I like about it because most buildings follow a straight kind of flat design. The whole layout just calls attention to it not only because the original style but also the way the building almost spreads across the field which is unusual as most buildings just go up and are narrow - this defiantly makes it more aesthetically pleasing.
Centre Georges Pompidou also known as the Pompidou Centre in English is a complex in the Beaubourg area of the 4th arrondissement of Paris It was designed in the style of hight - tech architectural
High-tech architecture is an architectural style that emerged in the 1970s, incorporating elements of high-tech industry and technology into building design. High-tech architecture appeared as a revamped modernism, an extension of those previous ideas aided by even more advances in technological achievements. This category serves as a bridge between modernism and post - modernism, however there remain gray areas as to where one category ends and the other begins. In the 1980s, high-tech architecture became more difficult to distinguish from post-modern architecture. Many of its themes and ideas were absorbed into the language of the post-modern architectural schools.
It was designed by:
Renzo Piano
Richard Rodgers
Su Rogers
Gianfranco Franchini
and structural engineers: Edmund Happold and Peter Rice
It is a building in two parts:
1. Three levels of infrastructure where they gather technical facilities and service,
2. A large glass and steel superstructure of seven levels, including the terrace and the mezzanine, which concentrates most sectors of activity of the Center, with the exception of Ircam, located in the plaza Stravinsky
The plant is rectangular, with the longer sides on the front of the square and the service. On the top floor there is a famous restaurant meal merger. It has a patio at the upper right (as the building looks from the square).
Coca cola is a very renowned company but I think that the product carries more of the fame then the actual logo because its more of a ‘title’ then symbol. The bright red straight away makes you relate to the red on the coca cola bottle and the white lettering does too. I think this label really works because it is almost exactly the same as the label on the bottle and cans so right away you link them together. The actual design is really simple using just 3 colours and the name of the product. The colors are bold and bright but not overpowering or too clustered by using to many different colours.
Nike similar to the coca cola logo is very simple even more so as it is only one colour and sometimes the logo is shown without the ‘Nike’ name. The simplicity of just a tick works very well because it simply sticks in your head and you can so easily relate it to all of the products. I think the key to a successful logo is following the concept that ‘les is more’ if this was to add more components and a spectrum of colours then it would become less memorable.
McdonaldsAgain this logo only uses 3 colours just as the others have only had 1-3. It is very bold and simple also which gives it a timeless quality because it is one main shape and cant easily be related with a particular period or era and because of this mcdonalds has been able to maintain such a simple lable for such a long time which I think has also really helped them because it gained popularity with the same symbol without any major changes.
I saw this school it reminded me of the design for blue block with the glass pains and concrete mix. I'm not sure so many colours looks good but maybe including two colours on our building not just the yellow may work better.
