Wayfinding
Transforming a Maze Into an Approachable Network
I designed an innovative wayfinding system for Calgary’s Plus 15 network, including improved signage and interactive maps which would significantly enhance navigation ease and user experience. This project prioritizes accessibility, with special attention to users with visual impairments, fostering a more inclusive and engaging environment for all.

Final +15 Wayfinding System with Enhanced Accessibility for Visually Impaired Users
Full Case Study
Final Map Design (To be Applied Across Interactive Kiosk Screens)
Map kiosk pedestals well-distributed across the network at key decision-making navigation points.
Key 4-way junctions present in high traffic areas with people coming from all directions, include directional signage above kiosks, while kiosks have a welcome screen and map which appears when "Explore Map" button is clicked.
Example of how a potential user experience could look like from start to end
