Station name signage on the platform level in Shanghai Metro, that started appearing towards late March 2019. It seems they are going about it slowly as there are quite a few stations where I haven't seen them yet. Overall, decently done and they definitely catch one's eye. Some stations receive unique treatment, like the signage in Middle Huaihai Road although I fail to understand the lack of consistency overall, in terms of the design language as well as the materiality. #shanghai #newadventures #explorechina #nonperiodicoscillations #architecture #design #metro #station #signage #platform #graphicdesign #language #branding #materiality

Walls make for great canvases. This beautiful artwork, made of broken ceramic, stands at the exit of the metro station, bringing joy to the commuters.  Location:  https://goo.gl/maps/NqNvXdWEAmcsHvLU9 #shanghai #newadventures #explorechina #nonperiodicoscillations #walls #dailyart #joy #metro #station #commute #museum #naturalhistory
