The elements of attraction in the Magic Kingdom at the Walt Disney World Resort
So, I have always been a bit of a nerd…okay, more than a bit, a whole lot of nerd going on here. One of the projects we have been working on has been a periodic table of the elements of attractions.

Taking that nerd gene and combining it with the best of being a Disney geek to create a unique series of posters that celebrate Disney’s parks and resorts in a new, and we think, interesting way.

One of the impetuses behind this series was a drive to find a new way to present data for an iOS application currently in development. Having worked on app design for years, we have always been on the lookout for new ways and interesting ways to browse the many offerings available at a Disney park.

The design of the elements is based around some of the periodic table design as well as expanded to include geolocation and some location based functionality.When all the single park designs are finished, a full color version will be created as well, with each set of attractions from each park having their own color palette.

At the footer of the poster you can find the key as well as the designation for the lands within the Magic Kingdom. We are in the process of producing a letterpress version, as well as some shirts and other merchandise, of the initial poster. We will post the relevant shopping information once we have the first series produced, in the meantime you can find a larger-sized version here.
