Teatime Talk - Kingsbridge Wayfinding

Situated in coastal South Devon (UK) in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Kingsbridge sits on the estuary and is surrounded by lush, green rolling countryside. During the pandemic, many UK residents have had to change their international holiday habits and so, what was once a seasonal tourist destination during the summer holidays, now welcomes more tourists to its eclectic selection of shopping and rural activities. A wayfinding system of three map signs was suggested by Steer and partners Trueform to benefit the local economy by encouraging visitors to stay longer in the area and explore all that is on offer. The map design was developed after exploring the local museum online and researching Kingsbridge’s history. Inspiration was taken from William Cookworthy, namesake of the museum, who was the first in the UK to create hard paste porcelain in the 1700s. Clare Seldon will cover the bespoke design process for Kingsbridge and how they managed to successfully design a much-loved product during the COVID-19 lockdowns of 2020/2021. Topics will include; • the design inspiration of William Cookworthy’s porcelain • the online nature of research and meetings • the final mapping and supporting content Presented by Clare Seldon Contents 0:00 - Introduction 1:04 - Talk 28:57 - Q&A
