Mariupol 城市导视系统设计丨马里

City of Mary​​​​​​​

Mariupol is a large Ukrainian city on the coast of the Sea of Azov. An important center of metallurgy and one of the largest commercial ports in the country.Mariupol was founded by the Greeks. The city is historically multinational. The heavy industry here coexists with sea recreation.

The essence of the city - on the one hand, industry, and on the other - the sea.That is why we decided to combine these two main features of Mariupol in an exclusive wayfinding system.

Iron + channel

We have developed a 6-element navigation system that helps tourists navigate the city and, at the same time, serves as a decoration. Each element provides historical information about the landmark and has a map of nearby locations.

Regarding the industrial past and the present of Mariupol, appeared:

- framework of the channel

- a standard profile of structural elements of black metal, which has a cross-section close    in shape to the letter "П";- iron base

- iron sheets 0.5 cm thick.

The great oak

We have developed unique park navigation with natural materials for park areas. The main material is oak, which is over 70 years old.

For installation in the ground, we made a special box that prevents the entry of water. We chose aluminum composite as the printing material. It is easy to install, maintain and looks good.

p.s.

We are a Ukrainian company and proud of that. This project was developed and partially installed before the war, on February 24, 2022. Some of our team have lived and worked in Mariupol and tried to make it better every day. What is happening to the city now is a global tragedy! MoreInfo will help rebuild Mariupol and make it even better, but now the most important thing is to save citizens.

We know that wooden navigation was used for bonfires, cooking and we glad that all wayfinding elements helped people even  this way. Mariupol is Ukrainian city. Our team will try to do our best to restore it when this war is over. In the meantime, each of us can help!
