Abstract

With the increase of building density in contemporary urban building space, the layout design of guiding signs has become a typical problem. There are few studies on the special characteristics of the building environment such as narrow passageways. Therefore, this paper studies the angle of clearly can be seen and the angle of comfortably can be seen based on visual sensitivity by experimental method, considering different eye heights and viewing distances so as to provide some references for the guided sign setting in narrow passageways and similar environment.
