As a result of my first iteration’s feedback, I decided to take a more synthetic approach and try to simplify the notation system, avoiding being too literal and instead focusing on core elements of the actions that it intends to convey.

In that way, the new version of the notation system focuses on the movements needed to use a door. And given that there are many different type of doors, I decided to design individual “guides” depending on the type of door in question.

The three columns on each guide correspond to the point of view represented (front, top, rear).

One of the most common every-day-activities we do is going through doors. So common in fact that it would appear silly to do a notation system to explain their functionality.

But, how would it be if we had to explain how to use them, say to a visitor from another planet with whom we don’t have another way of communication other than symbols and images?

Here’s an attempt to answer that question. Does it work?
