‘Expo SignageDesign’ (16-18 th October)

Identity Design, Signage Design and Wayfinding Design play an important role in communicating, directing, informing and for the proper display of services and products. Developments in new technology and processes in the recent years have thrown open alternatives that make these applications increasingly more economically viable as well as aesthetic.

This workshop on identity, signage and Wayfinding design intends to throw light on these issues. With examples of the potentials and the actual applications of these technologies and processes, we expect to be able to demonstrate how signages can now be made more durable and their development time (the product-to-market run) shrunk.

The workshop (with its daily lectures, discussions and hands-on training) will have three major components:

(i) sessions outlining the issues of identity, sign communication, symbol design, information structuring, directional navigation and Wayfinding design across the decades – to allow the participants a brief grounding of the theoretical aspect of signages.

(ii) and each day’s lectures and discussions on these subjects culminating with the experts and the participants working on an actual design problem.

Design Workshop: hands-on sessions
Participants will form groups and work on a specific Communication Design project, with expert guidance from faculty members. On the last day of the workshop, these design solutions will be presented and discussed with faculty members from IDC.

Registration: 

The early bird course fee for the 3day workshop is Rs. 15,000. For participants from Educational Institutions, the fee is Rs. 7500. This includes course material, lunch and refreshments for three days. Do register early as the number of participants are limited.
