Abstract A subway station is a public space and the complicated way-finding is requested in the subway station because transfer occurs a lot. Therefore a signage system is necessary to support effective and easy way-finding. But many of signage system is usually designed for who have normal visual perception and not for the elderly people. So it is important to apply characteristics of the elderly who have some visual perceptional problem in the aging society. The purpose of this study is to plan the signage system of subway station considering the elderly visual characteristics. The spatial scope is 5 subway station- Jongno 3-ga, Cheongnyangni, Express Terminal, Sadang and Yeonsinnae station and the scope of the elderly is 65 years of age or older. The methods of this study are based on the literature review, field investigation about 5 subway station and interview with the elderly who uses subway station. The results of this study are followed; First, Some of the stations have excessive and deteriorated signage. These cause information overload so it is needed to adjust the ratio of form of signage system. Second, color and pictogram have low consistency. The other way character and form are more proper and have clearer distinction than other factors. However, overall arrangement should be adjusted to satisfy the purpose of information. Third, as a result of interview with the elderly who use the subway station, they prefer receding color for way-finding and this result is different from the literature review. So, an additional interview and research about color combination are needed. This study investigates about the way of signage system design at subway station for the elderly and proposes the practical guideline. Henceforth, subway station should provide more effective signage system design to support the elderly people through following research. |
