TRAVEL GUIDE PAMPHLET
In this assignment, our lecturer had assigned us to create a Travel Guide Pamphlet, which is a individual assignment. We were to act as a travel guide to tour a group of friends from FNBE to our hometown or city. Students required to perform it manually using infographic manner and record a video of student flipping through the document without verbal explanation. The objective of this assignment is to let students to explore and understand the different characteristics of built environment and basic elements such as tangible and intangible components.
I kickstarted with this assignment by choosing Klang, Selangor as my township since I live in Selangor. I decided to draw Port Klang as my cover page because I thought it was special and when it comes to Klang, the first place everyone would think of is Port Klang. Since this is Port Klang, my tutor suggested to change the "WELCOME" greetings to just "WELCOME TO KLANG due to Port Klang is a site not a place for entertainment purposes.
I have key plan and history/background of my township in this page. My tutor also suggested to include the websites, 'the age and ethnic groups' in Klang for references purposes and also to include more visuals to support history/background of Klang instead of words since students were required to perform it in infographic manner.
I combined location plan, landmark in Klang, accessibility and transportation in this page. Due to space limited, I have separated into 2 pages. Initially, my idea was to draw building structure in a circle diagram but I realized the space was too small. Therefore, I have changed it into square diagram. I have also included legends for easy understanding.
I have included legend and types of road circulation in my zoning map. I have also differentiate using various colours in the legend. Therefore, it is easy to be recognised. Due to messiness, I have also legend my types of road circulation into primary, secondary and tertiary roads.
During tutorial class, our tutor commented on include map in every single of page to support the place's location. Therefore, I came out with this idea on drawing out the place of the location in the rectangular box while the place itself in the circle diagram.
I have included the sense of place in this page by using human's sensory organ representing the five senses, 'SIGHT, HEAR, TASTE, SMELL AND TOUCH'.
I decided to make a future improvement on the 'OLD DOUBLE DECKED BRIDGE', the bottom bridge in Klang by beautifying with natural elements. Since the bottom bridge is not fully utilise by the public, I thought of beautify it. Therefore, the public can utilize this area by taking pictures while experiencing the nature on the bridge and also jogging.
