名可名，非常名 What’s in a name?
Saturday, 22 November, 2025

[粵] 本集再次邀請Charles吳霆鋒和Henry葉振軒，一同探討近日關於港鐵站出口命名的話題。以老子《道德經》中「道，可道，非常道；名，可名，非常名」為引，思考公共運輸系統中標識設計的種種考量及一些相關的實踐案例。[Cantonese] In this episode we welcome Charles Ng and Henry Yip again to discuss the recent debate over the naming of MTR station exits. Drawing inspiration from Laozi’s Tao Te Ching — “The way that can be spoken of is not the constant way; the name that can be named is not the constant name” — the conversation explores the various considerations behind wayfinding design in public transport systems, as well as related real-world examples. This is a public episode. If you would like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit invisibledesigns.net
