Submitted by Jug, who says: I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页d like to submit a map I have been working on for quite some time and finally completed. It🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s a diagram of the Shinkansen high speed train network in Japan. As the network is basically one main trunk line going from Kyushu to Hokkaido and several spurs it makes sense to show it in a schematic way.

vignellicenter: Found in the archives!  Unrealized DC Metro map designs. Although Massimo Vignelli, while at Unimark International, designed the signage for the Washington DC Metro subway in 1968, he didn’t design the map (which was designed by Lance Wyman).  But we recently uncovered a variety of ideas mocked up on these presentation boards. We also found some original sketches for the signage! Stay tuned! It’s well known that the signage and wayfinding system for the DC […]

I was reminded today of this work — one of my favourite transit map design exercises of all time from the always interesting Burrito Justice website. A ridiculously minimalist “hyperlinear” version of the BART map, it actually holds up surprisingly well as a navigational tool.
