Paula,
I believe you may have some luck searching for Environmental Graphic Design.
There is also a professional association, the Society for Environmental
Graphic Design (http://segd.org/) that may provide some useful information.
EGD tends to encompass user behavior, traffic patterns and signage, that
sort of thing. I hope this is the direction you are looking for - good luck.
Best regards,
Holly Wilson, MLIS
