Real World Mod - Proposal


REAL WORLD MOD

Our real world mod is about changing the flow of traffic in the common's (cafeteria) entry door.

Through observation, Tim, Josh and I noticed how everyone in the common room went through the left door almost 90% of the time, unless the left door was already in use. So we came up with the idea of changing the flow of traffic through appearance and feel of the doors. The left door is going to be the "bad door" and the right door is going to be the "good door". We intend to make people use the right door instead of the left door (when looking at them from the inside).

On a smaller scale, we are also going to alter how (and if) people place their hands on the push plate handle. One plate is going to be smooth and one is going to be dirty. The germphobes will probably feel inclined to place their hands on the smooth, non dirty door plate instead of the dirty one.

I was responsible for execution on the illustrator document for the presentation. We all had input on design ideas and information on the document. I tried to keep the document as clean and simple as possible in order to provide all the necessary information as efficiently as possible.
