THE DESIGN OF INFORMATION
How can we communicate without words? At a time when we have to absorb more and more visual information to navigate our increasingly complex daily lives, the Design Museum is exploring the history of information design. From 18th century orreries and Florence Nightingale's pioneering use of diagrams to relay information during the Crimean War, to the work of modernist heroes, such as Herbert Bayer and Buckminster Fuller, and totems of daily life like the London Underground map and 1960s British motorway sign system, You Are Here will decode the ingenious use of visual information that guides
us through our daily lives. Opens on 12 February 2005. For more information visit Design Museum Homepage. (http://www.designmuseum.org)
