Maboneng, meaning ‘Place of Light’, is a privately developed urban neighborhood on the east side of Johannesburg CBD. A fully fledged thriving community, Maboneng is home to several independent retail, restaurants and entertainment venues as well as loft apartments, offices, hotel, a museum and creative factory spaces in a connected urban environment.
A varsity project where we needed to design, create and explore a realistic working wayfinding system for the Maboneng Precinct area in the heart of Johannesburg, South Africa. In addition to the wayfinding system I have also created a mobile application that works seamlessly with the wayfinding system to improve the overall user experience when visiting the area.
