I contributed to the development of the visual language and spatial logic for the museum’s way-finding system. My focus was on building a contextually grounded and adaptable design system that balanced cultural expression with clarity and legibility.

The visual language was developed as a cohesive design approach to bridge storytelling, place-making, and user experience within the museum. The design was rooted in the logic of local craft where beauty is embedded in structure.

Drawing inspiration from the indigenous diagonal embroidery grid, an iconic craft of Kutch, we developed a visual system that echoes the region’s rich heritage. This grid served as the foundation for a flexible set of motifs and patterns, capturing the museum’s cultural depth while remaining adaptable across formats, from print to digital media.

SPATIAL SIGNAGE AND NAVIGATION SYSTEM

SPATIAL SIGNAGE AND NAVIGATION SYSTEM

By mapping the visitor journey, we identified key decision points, entrances, transitions, and pauses, for effective sign placement.

A modular family of directional, identification, informational, back-of-house, and evacuation signs was developed, kept intentionally neutral

to complement the building’s vivid architecture.
