Mission:
In many ways, The Wayfinding Handbook is a reflection of the mission that has evolved for Two Twelve Associates, Inc. As the firm seeks to engage, inspire, and solve real communication problems through design, so too the book explores the intricacies of these pursuits that have come to be called "Design For a Better Experience."

The Wayfinding Handbook is an exciting new volume in Princeton Architectural Press's acclaimed Design Brief series. It is a complete guide to EGD, from planning and design to practical considerations, such as setting up teams and managing projects. Using real-life examples, Gibson illustrates the way type, color, mapmaking, dimensional forms, material selection, and new media are used to create effective wayfinding systems. A comprehensive bibliography and gallery of resources round out what is likely to become the go-to resource for students, professionals, or anyone charged with designing people-friendly, universally accessible environments.
