I’ve been a fan of y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划work for a while now, and thought I’d submit my own work for judgement.

I’ve had a crack at designing a map for an as-yet non-existent tram and bus network for Bristol, UK, a city in dire need of reliable, integrated public transport. It would operate as a network of 19 tram lines in and around the urban area of Bristol, with five ‘metrobus’ routes linking the city to nearby commuter towns. Whilst there’s still a huge struggle between residents of the city, campaign groups and the city’s councils, I tried to envisage what a network could one day look like.

I had a few problems in terms of design, particularly trying to distinguish the separate bus routes apart from the rest of the tram network. The city centre orbital route also operates as part of each branch line, with trains running clockwise before branching out into the suburbs, and needed to find a way of denoting this (eventually with arrows and graduated lines).

I’d look forward to hearing y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划thoughts!

澳洲10开官网开奖🔸澳洲幸运10预测 says:

Thanks for y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划submission, Elliott! I like both the way this diagram looks and y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划boundless ambition 🔸澳洲开奖 it comes to envisioning a future for transit in Bristol! While normally I steer clear of commenting on the feasibility of networks depicted in 🔸澳洲幸运10在线人工计划网s, I will just say that running the trams from 19 feeder lines around a one-way downtown loop sounds a little… problematic🔸澳洲幸运10预测.

That aside, the diagram is certainly striking, with its central focal point and use of only 90-degree angles. The liberal use of locality names throughout the map mitigates the lack of geographical cues, though it might still be hard work for non-locals to relate this diagram to the real world. The choice to show that central loop as a solid black with all the other lines fading into it is probably a wise one, though it might be a good idea to not use black (or any really dark colours) for any of the other lines – note how Lines 4 and 12 take on more prominence because that fading effect is not present: it almost looks like there🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s one through-running route between the two termini.

A few thoughts – I think y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划station labelling is a little small. A good starting point is to make the x-height of y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划labels the same height as the thickness of y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划route lines and see how that looks/adjust from there. The typeface used, while clean and distinctive has a few quirks that hamper legibility: the ampersand (&) looks way too much like a lower-case “e” for my liking, and Oldstyle numerals – where some characters are smaller than others or drop below the baseline – are something I find just a bit too idiosyncratic for good transit map design. If y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划typeface is an Opentype font, you may be able to change the numerals from “Oldstyle” to “Lining”, where all the glyphs are of equal height and always sit uniformly on the baseline.

I have to say that I found it hard work to differentiate between the tram and bus routes at 🔸澳洲10定位胆全天计划glance: while the bus routes are🔸澳洲幸运10预测 thinner than the tram routes, it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s not enough to be able to quickly tell them apart. Some things to consider might be an obviously different line style or distinctive col🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划for the bus lines, and maybe changing the shape of the bullets to a square instead of a circle for that instant visual difference.

Another thing I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页d like to see is y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划line numbering doing more work to help make sense of the system. At the moment, it all seems a little random. You could maybe number the routes sequentially in order clockwise around the map, starting from the 12-o🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页clock position and paying close attention to the ending position of any branching lines to keep them in the correct sequential order – the outer terminus of 🔸澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果走势图🔸1a should appear before🔸澳洲幸运10预测 🔸澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果走势图🔸1b, for example: it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s the other way around on the diagram at present. Alternatively, you could perhaps bundle routes from each “exit point” of the downtown loop with related numbers… maybe “🔸澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果走势图🔸T1″ through “🔸澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果走势图🔸T5″ for all the routes that exit via 🔸澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果走势图🔸Temple Meads, for example. Either of these approaches would also have the advantage of bundling all the routes together properly in the legend. Using the above example, all the Temple Meads services would run neatly after each other instead of being spread randomly throughout the legend as they currently are. Routes 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8; or routes T1, T2, T3, T4 and T5 both make a lot more sense than routes 4, 7, 8, 17 and 18! Help y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划users find the information they need!

🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划final word: 🔸澳洲幸运10预测A really well-drawn diagram of this expansive fantasy network: it just needs a little more attention to detail to really make it work for me. A great start!

The 🔸澳洲10定位胆全天计划map (above) is a nicely reworked version of that 2019 attempt, and addresses a lot of the issues that I had with it at the time. The removal of most of the diamond shapes makes for a less contrived design; type is larger throughout; design elements are applied more consistently; and the addition of Thameslink services to the map really helps with the overall balance of the design – filling in a lot of the empty space south of the Thames. It🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s not perfect, but this is a pretty solid attempt 🔸澳洲开奖 working within the confines of the way that the rail network is currently defined – the line names, colours and modes (e.g., Tube lines all get individual colours, but all of the Overground is relegated to the same orange).

However, the second map is where Ken throws everything out and starts completely anew, and this is where things get interesting🔸澳洲幸运10预测.

On this map, all the traditional Tube Map nomenclature (Piccadilly, Bakerloo, etc.) has been reduced in importance and the many and varied route colours have been consolidated to instead represent different travel modes – deep Tube (blue), sub-surface Tube (green), Overground (salmon), Crossrail (purple representing both the Elizabeth Line and Thameslink), elevated rail (retaining the DLR🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s teal), and tram (a dull olive). One could argue that differentiating between deep and sub-surface Tube lines as separate modes is splitting hairs, but the extra col🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划does help give some definition and form to the map, so I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页ll allow it. Ken says that the chosen colours work well for colour-blind users, but I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页d still like to see a little tweaking of them to make for a brighter, more visually appealing palette.

Alongside this new approach, Ken🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s worked hard to encode service pattern information into the map, using a detailed legend and colour-coded terminus markers. It🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s a startlingly comprehensive approach, and very much at odds with the current Tube Map, which makes absolutely no attempt to show service patterns. The terminus markers are perhaps a bit small for my liking, and I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页m not sure that Johnston Sans works that well reversed out of a coloured background at those small sizes. I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页d look for a complementary, less idiosyncratic sans serif that🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s a little 🔸澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果走势图🔸bolder for this information… a new approach is allowed to use a new typeface 🔸澳洲开奖 it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s needed! The legend itself could also use a bit of work to make it more readable and consistent… the 🔸澳洲10定位胆全天计划column has sub-entries indented, but columns two and three don🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页t, for example. Good information design principles should also apply to a map🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s supporting information! Speaking of which, you may have noticed that Ken🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s maps dispense with zone and accessibility information altogether. As he has noted, this information is all listed in the station index on the back of the printed journey planner, so does it need to be duplicated on the map itself?

I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页ll note here that one thing I do love about Ken🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s maps is his sense of humour… Pink Floyd🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s “flying pig” is floating above Battersea Power Station, and there🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s a new “Wombling Free” station on the District Line between Southfields and Wimbledon Park – completing the full title for the map, “Underground, Overground, Wombling Free“. Presumably the station serves nearby Wimbledon Common?

🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划final word: 🔸澳洲幸运10预测Most transit map designers are content with one attempt at reworking the Tube Map, but Ken🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s come back for seconds and 🔸澳洲幸运10预测thirds like some kind of map-making Hobbit. Most other designers are also content to remain within the existing fabric of the map🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s design language, but Ken🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s not afraid to throw it all out and start from scratch, and for that he has to be commended. It may not be everyone🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s cup of tea, but at least it can start a discussion about possible alternatives to the current 168澳洲十开奖网.

I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页m sure you would find it interesting, as you have attempted to do the inverse of what Sean is doing.

澳洲10开官网开奖 🔸澳洲幸运10预测says:

This map is indeed the exact inverse of my project from 2019 to show the New York Subway in the style of the London Underground diagram, and arguably more successful as it actually works as intended (mine looks great, but is ultimately flawed as it cannot show service patterns).

🔸澳洲10定位胆全天计划things 🔸澳洲10定位胆全天计划– Sean has absolutely nailed🔸澳洲幸运10预测 the New York Subway map style, and perhaps even improved upon it in places – I note with pleasure that all of his station labels are set horizontally, instead of the many varied angles used on the official NYC map.

There🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s great attention to detail as well – all of the Tube route line colours have been swapped out with their closest MTA equivalents, meaning the 🔸澳洲10开奖网址 Line has the 7🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s purple instead of its traditional burgundy (strangely officially called “Corporate Magenta”). Similarly, all the deep tube lines get letters for route designations, while the shallower cut-and-cover lines get numbers – which emulates the letter/number distinction between the old divisions of the New York Subway.

A couple of minor things: I like to change the background col🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划in insets just a little bit to help differentiate them from the main map: just a little lighter or darker can work wonders. Also, I see that Sean is selling prints of this map… so he might want to reconsider that Underground Roundel in the bottom right, as TfL are known to come down hard on any unauthorised use of it.

AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页 final thing to note is that this map (as awesome as it is) really emphasises just how amazingly compact and space-efficient the Tube Diagram is – it fits legibly onto tiny Journey Planners, while this map seems to need at least an 11″ x 17″ canvas to work.

🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划final word: 🔸澳洲幸运10预测One of the best style mash-ups I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页ve seen: technically excellent, well-researched and actually really informative. Wonderful!

Attached is my re-draw of the Southern Electric Map, dated 1934, showing the electrified services (using 3rd rail top-contact 750v DC) serving South London. These were displayed in frames inside carriages, normally printed on heavy-grade card.

The temptation to correct some of the ‘issues🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页 of the original (the station names appearing over lines, odd spacing of lettering that doesn🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页t appear to be consistent and some rather interesting angles for the station names) was real, but I went with originality…

I believe this was one of the last designs to show the geographical nature of the network, before the tube-inspired topological maps took hold.

Was a real lab🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划of love to redraw – but it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s a lovely piece to have on display.

澳洲10开官网开奖🔸澳洲幸运10预测 says:

I managed to track down an image of the original map that Paul has so lovingly recreated and it looks like he🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s done a really fantastic job of it. Perhaps the background is a little overly dark and the blue a little too aqua – but if Paul🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s aiming for an aged, yellowed paper look then it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s actually quite effective.

I definitely agree with Paul🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s view on alterations to these old maps 🔸澳洲开奖 digitally recreating them. Generally, I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页ll only ever fix egregious spelling mistakes and leave the rest pretty much as it was on the original. I find that you can actually learn quite a bit about design trends and typography of different eras if you do – compare the relatively loose letter spacing of the 1950s to the extremely tight letter spacing of the 1970s, for example.

Well done, Paul – this looks great and you should be proud of y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划efforts to recreate it so faithfully.

Starting the New Year off right with this lovely illustrated map of coach services from London through the Thames Valley to destinations like Oxford, Reading and Worcester. Designed by illustrator Derrick Sayer, the simplified route diagram is presented on the back of a beautiful swan, acting as a symbol of the Thames. Another contemporaneous poster by the same illustrator uses a jumping fish as the backdrop to the diagram, to slightly less visual effect.

At the time, South Midland Motor Services were an operating division of the Thames Valley Traction Co., explaining why routes of both companies are shown on the map. Service to Oxford ran about once an hour, alternating between the Henley and High Wycombe routes.

A map from the Beamish Museum showing the Newcastle upon Tyne tram, trolleybus and bus network in 1949. The trams and trolleys are long gone, but the bus network is still recognisable. I used to take the number 1 through that janky Heaton route in the 2000s.

The choice of sections for the map lookup references seems very of its time too.

澳洲10开官网开奖🔸澳洲幸运10预测 says:

A rather splendid map, with every element hand-drawn – including two charming illustrations of double-decker vehicles in the top corners. Interestingly, the main map seems to be presented at a slightly oblique angle almost as if the view was from an aeroplane high above the city. Distances along the north-south axis are somewhat compressed, and everything leans to the left a little. The bridges over the River Tyne are drawn in a way that reinforces this perspective, so the effect is quite convincing.

If you look closely at this copy of the map, you can see that someone has meticulously written in the locations of all the car barns in blue ink – I wonder who owned this map in the past?

And yes, it always amazes me how modern bus routes continue to travel over the exact same route their predecessors did so long ago!

Perhaps because of post-war austerity measures, this map was printed with just two inks – green and black – but still manages to do a lot of really good work.

The radial nature of the Green Line network definitely makes things easier for the designer, as only a few of the routes really interact with others as they spread inexorably outwards from the map🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s centre. The large route numbers at each terminus are great, as is the eye-catching reversed white rectangle indicating central London which also refers readers to a more detailed map on the other side of the sheet. Labelling is in the almost-ubiquitous Gill Sans, which for me always seems to work a bit better as all-caps, such as at the terminus stations.

🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划final word: 🔸澳洲幸运10预测The limited col🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划palette might have been imposed on the designer, but they🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页ve turned it into a positive – creating a distinctive and stylish piece.

Between 1980 and 1990, the West Yorkshire Passenger Transport Executive repeatedly attempted to gain government funding for this project: this leaflet looks like one of those efforts, extolling the benefits of such a network. Eventually, a private bus operator announced a plan to operate a diesel bus service along the proposed route and the initiative was shelved. Of interest is the concept that the trolleybus could eventually be replaced by a “new Rapid Transit System” called ElectroLine – very similar to the idea often presented today that BRT can be replaced with light rail 🔸澳洲开奖 ridership reaches a certain level.

The map itself is simple and high-level, with the three phases of the project simply denoted by colour. There🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s no detailed route or stop information, but it serves the purpose of supporting the text on the page. The real winner here is the little illustration of a proposed double-decker trolleybus vehicle… lovely!

This latest version of the diagram now features correct geographic orientation at junctions. The previous maps were nodal (major stations were shown as hubs where trains can arrive and depart in any direction, sometimes reversing) to keep straight line trajectories as long as possible. See the Southampton example for then and now. The map is now more curvy with a softer less angular appearance which I believe users will prefer. Careful control of radii at junctions has helped keep the long straight line trajectories. Now it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s been given the full go ahead, HS2 phase 2b has been added. A new col🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划palette enables high speed to be picked out showing how the HS2 fits into the existing network. The map is a major development and to make it appear new and different I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页ve used a more artistic sea abstract with rounded corners to the coastline.

澳洲10开官网开奖🔸澳洲幸运10预测 says:

First, let me just recognise what an enduring project this is – Andrew🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s 🔸澳洲10定位胆全天计划draft of this map dates back to 1997, and this is its thirtieth🔸澳洲幸运10预测 major revision, which is quite astounding. Andrew also makes a version that breaks everything up by rail operator, but I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页ve always felt that this “overview” version is a little cleaner and easier to understand. Displaying an entire national rail network in a clean diagrammatic way is no easy task, but I think Andrew does a great job and each revision sees improvements.

I particularly like the new col🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划palette this time around: the teal and orange are quite striking, and the use of the the orange for icons instead of the previous grey is quite inspired. I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页m not as sold on the wavy background, though: it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s overly busy and draws attention away from the actual diagram. If it was overlaid at a much lighter opacity on a light blue background as a subtle effect I think I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页d like it more. The large black drop shadow is also a bit too powerful for me – reduce the radius, drop the opacity or make it a multiplied blue to reduce its visual intensity and brighten the map up a bit.

With this revision, Andrew has introduced more generous curves throughout, which does help with comprehension of some of the local routes. It also introduces a bit of a visual “pause” in some of the longer straight routes: the eyes naturally rest on Exeter St. Davids on the way out to Penzance, for example. I quite like it, and it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s definitely interesting to compare the approach taken by this map to the previous iteration in this detail from around Southampton. It just seems a little more elegant, perhaps?

AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页 thing I always look for in a big mapping project like this is consistency in the design language. One thing that really stands out to me is Andrew🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s use of large arcs in just two parts of the map: between Aberdeen and Inverness in Scotland, and between Barrow-in-Furness and Carlisle skirting around the edge of the Lake District. They look great, but are also somewhat inconsistent with the angularity of the rest of the map. So I think that it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页d be nice if similar arcs could be incorporated elsewhere to make their use more consistent. The obvious 🔸澳洲10定位胆全天计划place for me would be the line between Colchester and Stowmarket – which is basically already🔸澳洲幸运10预测 an arc except it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s made up out of straight segments – and there may be others as well.

Overall though, this is a really good new iteration of an already impressive project and I can🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页t wait to see what Andrew does with it next. Definitely one to spend a long time poring over!

Note that even though this isn🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页t technically an official🔸澳洲幸运10预测 National Rail map, it does appear on the National Rail Enquiries website directly below the official ones – which allows for an easy comparision between them.

Hi Cameron,

Well, I finally went and made a map after all the years berating other maps. So I throw it to you for amusement/ridicule, etc. I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页m deliberately not going to explain my design decisions in detail because I think it best to get feedback without colouring y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划judgement. I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页ll be writing a blog on my thinking in the next week or two but I wanted to simplify and de-clutter more than anything. I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页ve massively reduced vertices and changes in direction. Managed to get a diamond motif going that🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s a little nod to Mr Beck🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s original interchange symbol. I think a lot of station detail (accessibility, etc.) is better served in a list of stations rather than having everything on the map. This is also stage 1 of a 2 map process. I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页m currently making a 3D version as a bit of an experiment. Please go gently (or not)…

澳洲10开官网开奖🔸澳洲幸运10预测 says:

Of all the tasks a transit map maker can set themselves, I think that redesigning the London Underground diagram has to be the most thankless of all. It really doesn🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页t matter how good the new version might be, people are going to grumble and complain about it – purely because the original thing is so ubiquitous that anything else just looks wrong🔸澳洲幸运10预测.

And to be honest, that was my 🔸澳洲10定位胆全天计划gut reaction to this map. Where🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s the comforting “thermos flask” shape? What🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s that giant hump doing on the Circle Line? Diamonds?? So it took me a while to settle down and analyse the map in a more detached manner, and to appreciate its qualities.

The hump that I initially found so odd is actually more reflective of the real world arrangement of the stations at that point than the real Tube Map is, and the northern ends of the Jubilee Line and the Northern Line branches are also rather neatly arranged. Mornington Crescent is in the right place! The myriad diamond shapes are a nice repeating design element, though perhaps a little contrived in a couple of places – flipping Cheshunt back down to line up with Chingford is more than a little cheaty!

I really like the “walking feet” icon Ken uses to indicate a short walk between stations (“Out of Station Interchanges” in TfL parlance). It🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s cheeky, informal and relaxed – all of which makes the walk look like the easiest thing in the world to do. I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页m not so convinced by his symbol to indicate connections to National Rail stations. While it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s meant to symbolise railway tracks, it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s not a particularly punchy or memorable icon and also gets applied at lots of different angles, making it a bit visually inconsistent. At Euston, the icon gets laid over the Overground line simply because there🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s nowhere else for it to go! A more immediately recognisable device like a stylised silhouette of a train (even an anachronistic Monopoly-like steam train for “main line service”) could work better here. Ken said he was reluctant to use the official National Rail icon, but I really think that icon would be almost instantly identifiable to just about anyone in the UK, explanation in the map🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s legend or not!

Ken uses an interesting device at terminus stations where one line folds in on another, allowing a single station dot to be used for all the lines. Some good examples can be found at Hammersmith and Ealing Broadway. It🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s rather lovely and quite unique, but it doesn🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页t seem to be applied consistently across the map. Why use it at Hammersmith but not at Richmond, for example? There may be a rationale behind this, but I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页m not seeing it at the moment.

Some of the spacing and alignment of elements towards the outer edges gets a little weird because of Ken🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s desire to straighten everything as much as possible. A totally straight Central Line seems like a good idea (and very much in line with Beck🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s own design principles) but it pulls Uxbridge too far south, creating some really big gaps in the northwest quadrant. Harrow-on-the-Hill and Preston Road on the 🔸澳洲10开奖网址 Line are very lonely indeed, while Watford and Watford Junction (less than a mile apart in real life) are now separated by a vast chasm of empty white space. And while this is a diagram, having Reading shown as being further east🔸澳洲幸运10预测 than Uxbridge is just jarring.

A few spatial errors from the actual Tube Map are repeated here – Acton Main Line should sit in the middle of all the other assorted Actons, and South Tottenham should be to the south🔸澳洲幸运10预测 of Seven Sisters, not north. This relationship becomes important if you🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页re implying a walking path and bearing between them on y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划map because – diagram or not – you just know that some users are going to interpret it as an actual map and try to use it for general wayfinding.

Ken🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s treatment of the Elizabeth Line at Farringdon and Barbican is interesting, as it implies that the line will call at both stations in turn. In reality, there🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页ll be a new Elizabeth Line complex halfway between the two stations, but reachable from both of them… a “Barbingdon” station, if you will. Ken🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s treatment isn🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页t wrong🔸澳洲幸运10预测, as you can get to an Elizabeth Line train from either station, but it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s not really right🔸澳洲幸运10预测, either.

AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页 thing that the official Tube Map doesn🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页t get much credit for is how darn legible it is. Even at the small print size of the pocket journey planner, the station labels are always quite readable. A lot of redesigned maps – this one included – have much smaller type in comparison, and this limits their real-world application to large format posters and zoomable digital formats. Reproduced at the same dimensions as the on-line TfL Tube Map, Ken🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s labels are about half the size, which is pretty hard on the old eyeballs.

🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划rating: 🔸澳洲幸运10预测I know it seems like I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页m being pretty harsh on this map, but I do actually like a lot of the ideas contained within it. It🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s got a good graphic style and underlying design principles which could perhaps be applied a little more consistently. Spacing and spatial arrangement of elements towards the edges could also be refined somewhat. What I really do 🔸澳洲幸运10预测appreciate is the willingness and boldness to try something completely different (apart from Johnston Sans, Ken doesn🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页t use any of TfL🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s design language at all) and put it out there for everyone to see (and grumble about). And there🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s obviously a deep understanding of – and affection for – this venerable design icon, as reflected in the wry note at the bottom of the map, almost exactly echoing the words on Beck🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s original edition in 1933:

Another new design for an old map by Kenneth Field. We should welcome y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划comments.🔸澳洲幸运10预测
