Deansgate Square is an iconic development of 1508 apartments in Manchester. The scheme consists of four landmark towers, three of which share the main lobby.
As a thriving hub for the development, signage within the lobby was to be minimal giving way of space to encourage residents to occupy all areas including the mezzanine but also be a pivotal part of the resident experience.
The theme of brass continues through the lobby signage linking the wayfinding throughout the development. Main directories and high-level identifier columns feature hand polished, laser cut solid brass fitting in elegantly with the dramatic interior design adding a fusion of glamour.
f.r.a. spent 3 years working on the wayfinding for the phased development of Deansgate Square including all the amenity spaces, our scope included design, tender and project management.
