to ensure accessible product sizing, information hierarchy, legibility and Equalities Act compliant text sizing.Ĭlient: Queensland Invenstment Fund / 7th Wave Design proposals have been reviewed extensively by key stakeholders, including TfGM’s disability design reference group, MCC Regeneration, MCC Public Realm, MCC Highways, The Medieval Quarter Group, etc. Spaceagency is appointed to design the system and the pilot scheme for a city centre roll out of pedestrian totem signs as part of the integrated pedestrian and transport information system for Transport for Greater Manchester, in collaboration with Manchester City Council. The project aligns with the City Centre Transport Strategy 2040, which focuses on creating an integrated, well coordinated transport system which supports walking and cycling alongside easy modal interchange to the public transport system. The vision for the Greater Manchester Connected Wayfinding project is to create an outstanding pedestrian urban environment in Manchester that puts pedestrians at the heart of the movement strategy for the city and wider region. Spaceagency, together with Weston Williamson, was commissioned in 2017 by Transport for Greater Manchester to design and implement a pedestrian wayfinding and signage scheme for the city of Manchester. Hertiage and narrative information about the various rides and attractions is displayed on freestanding structures evocative of games of a bygone, romanticised era such as playing or tarot cards. This concept enabled us to reinforce the notion of wonder, whimsy and discovery throughout the park through large scale 'scattered' and arranged text characters spelling out Dreamland but intrtoduced a more grounded and tactile material palette. We paired blackened steel on the side with mirror polished distressed steel at the front of the letters, the mirror reflecting the 'Otherworldlyness of 'Dream-Land' and the blacked steel providing a robust counterbalance to anchor the letters in the present day. This trail of installations provides orientation and wayfinding points and at the same time opportunities for sitting and resting. Two sets of letters, starting at opposite ends of the park, are paired in sets on an upright and a laying down letter.

Spaceagency created a series of sculptural 3D Letters, made from the letters that form the work 'Dreamland'.
In 2016 Spaceagency was appointed to work on the Wayfinding and interactive landscape installations for the relaunch of Dreamland heritage theme park in Margate, Kent. The park was being expanded to include a new event space to stage large scale concerts as well as installing many new attractions.
