Entry 2

The fire extinguisher is obviously a very literal sign.  It shows exactly what a fire extinguisher is meant to do; put out a fire.  I believe this has a good sense of unity because all the pictures have a purpose that add to the overall meaning of the sketch.  The emphasis on the extinguisher being used promotes the focal point.  

The janitor's closet sign is again a very obvious sign.  I decided this would be a good way to design the sketch because it has a certain symmetry about it that is appealing.  It creates a great focal point as it is equal in dominance.  

The exit sign sketch I have created was meant to be a person waving and walking therefore leaving.  Although it is asymmetrical, it has a clear focal point.  I also believe  the arrow and the waving person create a distinctive unity that goes extremely well together.  

Since the parking garage sign we currently have is simply a circle around a p, I thought of a more literal stance of a parked car in a square would do the trick.  The focal point is obviously the car, which I believe is an easy enough sign to assume a parking garage.  The unity of the sketch is simple because it is only one object.

I've never been in an executive washroom, however I think its safe to assume that whomever gets access to it has to wear heels or a tie to work.  This sketch is quite literal as all my others, but I think it clearly signifies the executive.  I tried to create contrast with the striped tie.  The sketch creates one focal point obviously and unifies the item.  

For the restrooms, I was planning on doing long hair for women, short hair for men.  However, this was a difficult point to make as men have long hair, women have short hair.  I think this sketch was the hardest for me because gender issues are iffy.  Even the sign we have for restrooms now is iffy.  So I choose to sketch underwear, because I would laugh if I saw a sign like this.  Although not every man wears boxers, I hope that more wear these then whitey tighteys.  I tried to make the sketch pop with the contrast and variety of the patterns on both sets of undies.
