US road signage rethink / Manual, 2012
Great project by San Francisco-based Manual – rethinking the US road signage system. I love it when designers approach such enormous and seemingly impossible tasks. I’d be interested to see if implementing this could ever be achieved. That’s a whole lot of signs to re-make.
Would the ideal plan be to implement this nationally? If so, that would be an incredible undertaking, but it would be awesome if you could actually get some people behind it. How amazing would that be to have a global format for road signs? It would certainly make travel a lot easier.
