GRC Abstract
Investigating the contribution and possibilities of Communication Design
within Public Space
What is the current role of communication design in creating and defining
public space? What are the implications of marketing-driven communication
design in terms of mental environment? Beyond the barrage of calls for
consumer action, what contribution can communication design offer virtual
and physical public spaces?
Commencing with an analysis of the visual language of a streetscape, this
research project will investigate the impact of marketing communications in
public space. A series of project based outcomes will propose alternative
visual forms and/or languages which communication designers might deploy in
their role as citizen designers.
