Sketches



Taking photos to generate ideas
I went over to see Charles Kumi where he took a number of photos of me pushing and pulling doors. Almost unconsciously, I drew curves with a pen over the door frame of the printed photos.
I had an appointment with a patent agent, Harry Lamb, of Marks and Clerk in London, I showed him the push and pull photos.
He said “Mmm…Bowed Doors!”.
The way he said it I thought we were on to something.




Down to the last three pictograms
For the PULL Symbol the choice was made of the “bar type handle”
The images have bit of a belly
Chatting about it we agreed that the larger tummy made the images look more friendly.
Trimming down the doors and the foot up
We were into the final “detailing” of the push and pull characters.
The arc of the doors was too long and so they were cut down at each end.
I went to see Tom “the hypnotist” and showed him different lengths of doors and he chose the length he liked.
The two pictograms were completed in February 2011.

Oxford Brookes University Research
I met Professor Angus Gellatly in Corsica and we started chatting about the signs.
Due to this conversation Prof Gellatly was keen to run a study on the signs and in his final year, one of his students, Meera Dulabh undertook and completed a study in 2012.
The result was the helpful conclusion that the colours would be better changed from Yellow to Red and Green.
