Assignment 2: Pedestrian Map feedback!
After deliver the two concepts of the maps we had a two feedback session.
We receive the first comments of our concepts in the lecture room. In the first feed back session we could discover the following:
1) The colors are not effective. Some of the colors gave false cues to the users, for example the blue color used to the streets make the user think that they are water canals.
2) The contrast of the 3D icons versus the 2D icons is not as strong as we thought. Probably for the use of shading in the 2D icons. We were encouraged to experiment more with the icons, perhaps a 3d museum pedestrian in the museum route (as we have a 3d shopper pedestrian in the shoppping route).
3) We have to figure it our how to make the Museum route attractive because we have very few icons in that route and doesn’t show a clear path. So we have to guide our user to go in that way.
4) Change the concepts format to landscape perhaps?
well… we had a lot to think
