BRAVE NEW WORLD: Architectural Icons (LA) Video Clips. Duration : 9.40 Mins.


Los Angeles is a place that is ALL about innovation. From its historical and cultural beginnings, LA is a city that has engendered a set of practices like an environmental petri dish for people to develop their ideas, attempt their dreams and define/redefine themselves through their creations. There is nothing that visually captures these grand experiments more effectively than in LA's past and present architecture. The broadcast series for the Los Angeles segment titled "Brave New World: Architectural Icons of LA" consists of six (6) individual episodes, capturing the history and culture of innovation in LA that culminates in some of the most iconic architecture in America. University of Southern California (USC) Lecturer, licensed architect, and television host Mina Chow interviews the general public, and films various architectural sites throughout LA to show the audience the relationship of broader historical and cultural ideas as they relate to the design of the spaces. These short, but engaging episodes act as travelogue/dialogue into the past and present as we compare precedents of the most pioneering places and reveal the stories behind their innovations.

The Wayfinding Handbook: Information Design for Public Places

Where am I? What can I do here? Where can I go from here? How do I get out of here?

Consciously or not, we ask such questions every day as we navigate the places and spaces of our lives. Whether we find ourselves in a museum, hospital, airport, mall, or street in an unfamiliar city, we depend on systems of visual, audible, and tactile cues not only to lead the way, but also to keep us safe. They are the fundamental questions of wayfindinga process that encompasses both the experience of choosing a path within a built environment and the set of design elements that aid in such a decision. A decade ago, the professional practice of wayfinding design simply involved devising sign systems. Today, the field is much broader and continues to expand to address technological developmentskinetic media, GPS systems, web connectivity, smart materialsas well as cultural changes in areas such as branding and environmental awareness. Similarly, a cross-disciplinary familiarity with graphic, architectural, landscape, interior, industrial, and information design has become an essential requirement of twenty-first-century wayfinding design.

The Wayfinding Handbook is an exciting new volume in our acclaimed Design Briefs series. Professional wayfinding designer David Gibson draws on more than thirty years of experience collaborating with architects, planners, developers, managers, and civic leaders to offer an insider's view of this rapidly evolving discipline. Using real-life examples, Gibson illustrates the way type, color, mapmaking, dimensional forms, material selection, and new media are used to create effective wayfinding systems.

The Wayfinding Handbook is a complete guide to the discipline, from planning and design to practical considerations, such as setting up teams and managing projects. "Other Voices" sidebars, presentedthroughout the book, reveal the opinions of experts who plan, manage, and shape wayfinding projects. A comprehensive bibliography and gallery of resources round out what is likely to become the go-to resource for students, professionals, or anyone charged with designing people-friendly, universally accessible environments. ...Read more
