Memonorypoly

A typography map project to dedicate the journey of the designer herself in the form of Monopoly. This map highlights details on two cities across two countries and the designer’s interpersonal relationship with these chosen locations since 2002.

Graphic Designer

MEMONORYPOLY documents all the choices the designer ever made in her life and aims to invite people to skim through the location with key considerations and generate their own choices. Within this process, the audience might reconsider the map element, e.g. family, friends, career opportunities, entertainment activities, in their personal context.

As a form of map, I challenge myself with design elements including limited color, consistent typography, simple but expressive iconography and texture, as well as applying intermediate contrast, strong hierachy, high legibility and density.

Instead of using excessive illustrations, I use expressive type as images to decorate the boarders and mark the block as a Monopoly game. I also use typography to differentiate the type of locations on the map without the use of color.
