OUGD405 - Signage Solution - Dark Shades

After establishing the compositional layout/formatting of the Leeds City centre way finding
system in the previous post, I produced an alternate resolution using the dark Pantone shades identified previously. This solution instead uses darker shades of the selected sector hues for
edging and typographic/symbolic information, set on white ground to achieve the contrasting
tonal energy needed for distinction in the busy city environment.

This episode of experimentation is shown below.

Although both these and the resolutions from the previous post will be critiqued before any further development, initial analysis from myself finds that although the darker shades and white ground are clear and considered, they appear somewhat simplistic, child like and basic. The combination of yellow and white presents ever-problematic issues also.
