Since my friends and I enjoy sitting outside to eat and spend time together, I wanted to create a map that indicates the different types of seating across campus. I chose a color scheme of neutrals with a pop of red tones that related to the appearance of the St. Edward’s campus and to highlight the main structures, Main Building and the Northen Theatre.
I created icons that indicate the types of seating as well as the number of seats. I would like to have worked more on the concept of expressing multi-layered information (different measurements like time, distance) through color and other icons, which I don’t think I really accomplished. My information (the number of chairs and types of seating) was more flat of a concept than I would have liked. I think I lost the personal aspect of it, too, because of the lack of information layers.
