This study evaluated the effectiveness of China’s high-speed railway map’s color system based on color design
principles in information design. Various design limitations of the color system were identified and analyzed. A new color system
which enhanced the legibility of the map was re-coded and was considered satisfactory in the usability test. The research explores
the effect of colors in map design and provides valuable color-coding guidance, which may be applied to map design and to the
design of other information materials. The color evaluation, re-coding and usability test methods may bring practical insights for
information designers and color design researchers.
期刊介绍:
Information Design Journal (IDJ) is a peer reviewed international journal that bridges the gap between research and practice in information design. IDJ is a platform for discussing and improving the design, usability, and overall effectiveness of ‘content put into form’ — of verbal and visual messages shaped to meet the needs of particular audiences. IDJ offers a forum for sharing ideas about the verbal, visual, and typographic design of print and online documents, multimedia presentations, illustrations, signage, interfaces, maps, quantitative displays, websites, and new media. IDJ brings together ways of thinking about creating effective communications for use in contexts such as workplaces, hospitals, airports, banks, schools, or government agencies.
