Graphic Considerations
Viewing Areas
Use the sides for maximum impact.
Consider placing text along the length of the handrail rather than across it. Lengthwise, the text can be bigger and the esclator can be moving in either direction.
Colours
Use large fonts and dark background colours.
Avoid white or other light colour backgrounds (as escalator handrails come into contact with thousands of people everyday and may be more susceptible to dirt.)
