We’re back in Carnoustie for Phase Two of the town’s wayfinding improvement works. With the initial site walk ticked off, it’s off to the drawing board to get creative with concepts. Watch this space… placemarque.com/2024/03/06/c…

We welcomed Lauren Kaye to our team last month as a senior graphic designer. We are excited to let Lauren loose on some of our projects to see what creative flair she will bring to wayfinding: placemarque.com/2024/03/19/m…

At Placemarque, we understand that it's not just the bricks and mortar that make a place come alive; it's the spaces in between that truly connect with people.

We love all our projects... we love where they lead us, the sites we get access to and sometimes the views from those sites!
Just another day at Placemarque!

Great to see these changes - making spaces more people-friendly. #placemaking
London's financial district is becoming more people-friendly with wider sidewalks, new bike lanes, and additional public plazas: bloomberg.com/news/features/…

What makes a great place? Is it as simple as putting in beautiful signage? (Spoiler, there’s more to it than that.) Check out our blog which breaks down the key ingredients of a successful #placemaking, and how wayfinding fits into the equation. buff.ly/3UUbSXF

Great to see one of the first signs being installed in Bandon, County Cork.
Placemarque has designed a new scheme that weaves a heritage trail alongside wayfinding, connecting past and present as well as encouraging exploration of the town.

We always enjoy our site visits - but some are definitely more scenic than others! It's always a pleasure to visit Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew.

Next stop, Tewkesbury! We’re working with isGroup Signs to refresh the existing town centre signage so that it successfully tells the town’s story in a legible and easy-to-understand way. placemarque.com/2023/12/20/t…

Exciting kick off to 2024 at the @gmleadersplus event, 'Reclaiming the Street' this morning. Andy Burnham provided food for thought with insights on leadership and big ambitions. And other great discussions on augmented reality and rethinking city centre space. #placemaking

A recent review out of the University of Cambridge shows how street design can alleviate or worsen respiratory health.
For example, Barcelona's famed "superblocks," which prioritize pedestrians over cars show an almost 25% decrease in traffic pollution: theguardian.com/environment/…
We love it when we kick off a new project. Last week we visited Tewksbury for our first site visit - here are a few pictures from our trip.
We are looking forward to starting work on this project!
