This series explores my long-standing interest in how people navigate space through design. The featured highway sign assemblies reinterpret U.S. roadway signage standards using hand-traced route shields and a rearrangement of sign components. Wayfinding always requires the display of a considerable amount of information, but this must be balanced with hierarchy and visual clarity. That balance is what defines effective wayfinding at scale.
Alongside these real-world studies, I also designed a fictional transit and signage system for a Minecraft server built with friends. The project included a reference map and junction signage for a semi-automatic rail network, allowing fast and intuitive travel across the region. Though playful in context, the design process mirrored real transportation planning, including the implementation of clear visual logic and sensible routing.
The server rail map as of May 2025.
Together, these projects reflect a fascination with the intersection of design, movement, and comprehension — how visual systems quietly shape the way people understand and move throughout their environments.
