Week 6 Reading

"Learning to Love Public Transport" - I chuckled a little at reading this because I do have a relationship with public transit. I am a big fan of the New York system and its design. I only visited New York once and within a day I was giving metro advise to tourist. What they did for LA seems similar and clean. I liked the Alcatraz way finding and if we choose the nature reserve for our project it will be an inspiration. Went to their web site(http://www.huntdesign.com/) and found more inspiration. I found the fact about the seven colors interesting. I need to go on a color diet sometimes because of my over use of colors. I went to an exhibit that DRS did(only skin deep) and it was great. I love their approach to exhibits. The World Trade Center project was well done and helped people to understand the tragedy of the day.Sometimes we need to look at the whole before we begin to dissect the parts and rebuild in an aesthetic way.
