Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park Map
Client: London Legacy Development Corporation/Embrace | June 2015 | Adobe Illustrator
In 2015 was commissioned to design the official visitor map for the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in east London after it had fully reopened to the public following the London 2012 Olympics. The map was displayed at entrances around the park and was available to the public in printed pamphlet form and to download from the official website. The client wished for a detailed, clear and easily navigable design, showing all the main venues and landmarks within the park (including the Stadium, Copper Box and Aquatics Centre) drawn in axonometric detail, and with entrances, facilities and surrounding features clearly marked.
The full design including the symbol and number key. All symbols, numbers and text labels on the map were placed by the commissioning design agency.
