Design Brief
We the exploratory class of Design Technology want to build poles with signs that will be able to direct and lead people to their desired part of the school. This is related to communication, because it will help the school by making things easier for new students, and parents to get where they want to go faster and more easy. I am going to state some of the things the pole is going to have with my design specifications.

Design Specifications
- Our poles will have to be made out of either metal, or of sturdy wood. - The pole plus the bases height should be a suitable for people to read and see from far away. - Should be Safe - It must be consistent. - The base should also be stable making metal or strong wood the choices. - The base should be balanced in a way maybe having not too long pieces of wood or metal sticking out on the bottom, but spread out evenly.

Signs Guiding Questions
How many poles? Where should to poles be? The cost? Location? Which schools?(elementary, middle, and high school)
