Many of America’s cities were built with a light rail system in place. 50 years later tracks were paved over for buses. Now cities are looking to the promise of light rail to rejuvenate abandoned downtowns and ease commuter gridlock after everyone bought a car, hit the interstate and drove to the suburbs.
This is from a series created from imagery derived solely from pictographs found in my collection of wingding and dingbat computer fonts.
Starting from a large selection of these symbols and shapes I made associations and pairings to match preconceived ideas or allowing them to inspire their own themes.
