This research project follows the doctoral thesis entitled “System of signs for tourist information: Methodology for the development of signaling systems”, completed in 2012. Starting from the field of design, the proposed research focuses on the area of communication design and the central theme is visual identity and information design. The research project proposes a study based on the analysis, development and implementation of an information system, interpretation and orientation for Natural Parks, applying a pilot study to the Tejo International Natural Park, which will seek to be a strategic tool for the development of means and supports that promote the dissemination, promotion and valorization of the territory, in harmony with the fundamental principles of nature conservation and biodiversity. 

The growth of tourism in the last decades, combined with a growing globalization on a world scale, has somehow generalized the abolition of physical, linguistic and cultural boundaries, making the free movement of people and goods easier, enhancing trade, industry, leisure activities and other tourism-related activities. Mobility and a large number of people coming to particular places or attractions have led to the need to guide people into an unknown space and to communicate basic messages using a universal language through pictures, so it can make easy to understand written messages in any language and it will decrease the number of messages.execution and defense – discussion. In the Digital Design project, it is imperative to develop critical assertions rather than solutions obtained by artificial intelligence. The experimental development to be developed will focus in an introductory phase of a project module.
