Let's start with a place I refer to as HELL in the wayfinding world
This place is an EVIL genius, a mind-field of show rooms and things you spend hours trying to find. I went to go look for sheets spent two hours look pick up the sheets and yet it still took me another 1hr and 1/2 to get out of the store. The genius is that you will buy more cause you are forced to wonder. To me I don not like IKEA for this reason, I hate the way it traps you. The whole experience leaves you with regret and a headache.
Strength- London Zoo very easy to navigate and easy to leave.
Signs are clear and to the point the map clearly indicates where you are according to animal and landmarks and signs point you in the direction of which animal is on route.
Warning signs are also very clear (pictorially)
Strength- Gasparilla Parade Map
Gaparilla is a celebration in my town of Tampa Florida of when the pirates invaded Tampa Bay. To celebrate this occasion everyone in town dresses up as a pirate or wench and gets inebriated. This public intoxication has made the Gasparilla route very simple.
literally a straight line just look for water
90% are intoxicated
