| summary |
Oriented to discuss about how information contributes to resilience, this paper presents a research-based project that integrates design and performance measuring. This project is Guemil, an open source initiative aimed to represent risk and emergency contexts through icons. As a simple solution with a focus on risk management cycle + user experience, the set of icons is designed around a ‘before > during > after’ concept. To verify performance about interpretation from users, icons are currently being tested worldwide. Reflections from the process and future projections are presented as conclusion. |
