Summary:
Designers, graphic artists, architects, and urban planners are now confronted with the tasks of signage, route management, and information and orientation systems. With this book they can profit from a broad view of phenomena related to disorientation-disorientation in scientific disciplines, in our environments, and in expressive presentations. On the one hand, this should make it possible for designers to benefit from attitudes to the topic derived from experience and to move from confusion to visual reflection. On the other, it will enable scholarly disciplines to explore the formation of categories that can move things forward. This visual study is accompanied by heterogeneous brief texts. Images and texts are thus placed in a relationship of mutual reflections rather than confronted with one another in a commentary or illustration.

Summary:
L'image d'une pomme désigne le fruit mais peut aussi, dans certains cas, évoquer une alimentation saine ou symboliser la beauté, car les signes ont le pouvoir de signifier tout autre chose que ce qu'ils semblent montrer. Leur signification dépend des éléments qui servent à les mettre en forme ainsi que du contexte dans lequel ils sont perçus. Alphabet morse, panneaux de signalisation, publicités, héraldique, musique, peinture, photographie, poésie, cinéma, design et architecture, gestes et expressions du visage, symptômes, vêtements ou rituels : les signes sont d'une extraordinaire diversité et ne cessent d'enrichir le champ des significations qui nous entourent. Massivement véhiculés par l'image, ils relèvent de la sémiotique, qui est l'étude des signes. Cet ouvrage propose un accès facile à l'univers des signes à travers soixante-seize notions présentées sous forme de questions-réponses à la manière d'un jeu avec l'auteur. Le lecteur est ainsi amené à s'interroger sur la façon dont les signes sont élaborés, interprétés et compris.
