TOTETSU Training Institute

Wayfinding System

Totetsu Kogyo Co., Ltd., founded at the request of the former Ministry of Railways to maintain and reinforce Japan’s rail system, is a general construction company with far-reaching expertise in the field of rail-related construction. We created a wayfinding system for Totetsu Training Institute, to develop human resources. For our design motif, we used rail lines-the core identity of the client, which continues to thrive in the rail sector. Some of the rooms in the facility are in blind areas. The rail-line design marks flow lines to those rooms, offering affordances for spatial movement.
