In architecture
design, sign and symbol are used to represent thing in term of shape or words.
Everything can transform to a sign, for example McDonald can be simplified as
"MC" and people can understand it right away that this is a McDonald
fast food restaurant. However, each signs can give different effect on our
thinking, color, front, and shape can translate to our mind differently,
because this depend on our understanding. The sign in architecture doesn't only
give us the meaning or each sign but also give the function of it. For example,
the restroom sign is just a simple symbol of female and male but we know right
away that it is a restroom, so here some sign are used to extend of becoming
its own thing rather than the object that it try to representing it. There is one
good example in the lecture Aj Taylor show us a pentagon shape, some people say
it a simple pentagon shape but some says that this is sign of a house. Yea,
pentagon shape is like a sign to representing a house, so here I think that
sign can be anything and anywhere. This is a power of "design" and "de-sign",
creativities making something new. In conclusion, I'm impress with the power of
sign that can effect us people so much in differently point of view. Sign is
everywhere around us, sometime we doesn't even know it.
