In part-two of the series, NYF joins the Applied Design team on a descriptive walking tour of the World Trade Center. The guided tour showcases the design elements, environmental messaging, and display graphics created by Applied Design for the WTC complex.
“In their interview with David Sable and the walking tour of the campus, we learn how Applied Design found their insights and created iconic work while navigating the complexity of a public/private partnership and stakeholders with diverging desires, motives and objectives,” said Scott Rose. “It's a story of the power of operating with a beginner’s mindset and determined optimism.”
Throughout the tour the team shines a spotlight on the challenges and rewards of tackling the World Trade Center redevelopment project. In-depth conversations between the team members reveal how the creation and implementation of the WTC’s brand identity and site-wide navigation system succeeds in capturing the essence of the property while engaging visitors and the community.

“As New Yorkers, we knew the World Trade Center was an important story of resiliency, vitality, and hope that had to be told. Over the past several years, we have helped shape the narrative through visual identity development and implementation, environmental messaging, and by providing visitors with directions around the site though signage and wayfinding.” –Applied Design NYC
The World Trade Center’s redevelopment was unlike any other project in scope, stakes, and historical significance. The Applied Designed team worked with both the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey to help the new World Trade Center become a vibrant and positive reality through branding and design.
