Rebić, Lovro (author), Pušnik, Nace (mentor)

Namen izdelanega diplomskega dela je bil oblikovati poenoten in prenovljen označevalni sistem, ki bi potnike vodil po vseh možnih različicah javnega prevoza v Ljubljani. Namen končnega izdelka je zagotoviti lažjo orientacijo ob uporabi javnih prevoznih sredstev, objektih ter okolici, do koder sega javni prevoz. V teoretičnem delu diplomskega dela so s pomočjo strokovnih virov definirane in opisane glavne lastnosti in elementi, ki so pomembni, da skupaj tvorijo celoten, učinkovit in funkcionalen označevalni sistem. Opisana je vloga piktogramov, vloga barv ter tipografije v označevalnih sistemih. Poleg tega je opisan tudi krajši pregled zgodovine Ljubljanskega potniškega prometa ter Slovenskih železnic in krajša analiza referenčnih primerov označevalnih sistemov. V eksperimentalnem delu sta analizirana že obstoječa označevalna sistema Ljubljanskega potniškega prometa in Slovenskih železnic ter njuna primernost. V tem delu so analizirani ključni elementi, kot so izbira črkovne vrste, konsistenčnost in doslednost pri oblikovanju piktogramov ter izbira barvne palete. Namen diplomskega dela je bil na podlagi analiziranih elementov izboljšati in izbrati ustreznejše elemente, kot so tipografija, barve in novo oblikovani simboli, ki bi skupaj tvorili poenoteno celoto. Za izvedbo eksperimentalega dela smo uporabili programe Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator in InDesign. V njih smo upodobili, izmerili in izbrali vse zgoraj naštete elemente. Eksperimentali del zajema opis izdelave in oblikovanja novih piktogramov; od postavitve mreže, določanja mer v mreži ter parametrov pri oblikovanju novih simbolov, izbire barv, do primerjave dveh črkovnih vrst in ugotavljanja njune primernosti za označevalni sistem. Na podlagi teh elementov smo izboljšali in nadgradili označevalni sistem. Sledi še zadnji del diplomskega dela, v katerem je predstavljen sklop novo oblikovanih piktogramov, ki so poenoteni, imajo konsistenten izgled in kompleksnost. Upodobljeni so z novo izbrano barvno paleto. Predstavljene so novo oblikovane kartice, ki so poenostavljene in modernizirane. Nazadnje so predstavljeni novo oblikovani smerokazi, ki potnike vodijo do avtobusnih postajališč po Ljubljani in železniške postaje v Ljubljani.

• Title: Suggestion for modernisation and unification of the marking system for public transport system

Abstract

The purpose of the diploma thesis was to design a unified and renewed marking system that would guide passengers through all possible versions of public transport in Ljubljana. The purpose of the final product is to provide easier orientation when using public transport, facilities and surroundings to where public transport reaches. In the theoretical part of the diploma thesis, with the help of professional sources, the main elements are defined and described, which are important to create a complete, efficient and functional marking system. The role of pictograms, the role of colors and typography in marking systems is described. In addition, a brief overview of the history of Ljubljana passenger traffic and Slovenian Railways is also described, as well as a brief analysis of reference examples of marking systems. In the experimental part, the already existing marking systems of Ljubljana passenger traffic and Slovenian Railways are analyzed and so is their suitability. In this part, key elements such as the choice of typeface, consistency, consistency in the design of pictograms and the choice of color palette are analyzed. The goal of the thesis was to improve and select more appropriate elements, such as typography, colors and newly designed symbols, based on the analyzed elements, which together would form a unified whole. To carry out the experimental work, we used Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign. In them, we depicted, measured and selected all the elements listed above. The experimental part includes a description of the production and design of new pictograms. From setting up the grid, determining dimensions in the grid and parameters for creating new symbols, choosing colors, to comparing two types faces and determining their suitability for the marking system. Based on these elements, we improved and upgraded the marking system. The last part of the diploma thesis presents a set of newly designed pictograms, which are unified, have a consistent appearance and complexity. They are rendered with a newly selected color palette. Newly designed cards are introduced, which are simplified and modernized. Finally, the newly designed wayfinding is presented, which guides passengers to bus stops around Ljubljana and the railway station in Ljubljana.
