City of Charlotte, North Carolina
- Wayfinding & Signage Projects
- Information Design Projects
The City of Charlotte is one of the great cities of the New South. Shaped by its history as a center for banking and trade, Charlotte comprises several historic neighborhoods and growing suburbs, with a revitalized “Uptown” at its cultural and commercial heart.
A client team headed by the City of Charlotte, the Charlotte Area Transit System, and Charlotte Center City Partners commissioned Two Twelve to create a pedestrian wayfinding system to help inform and direct a growing population of new residents. Our collaboration with this team and North Carolina-based Brinkley Design and DAWA Inc. gave the project the benefit of both national perspective and local knowledge.
Since installation began in 2007, the sign system has received enthusiastic praise from residents and officials throughout the city. A complementary vehicular wayfinding sign system is presently in development.
