EXPERIENCE

Dubai International Airport Wayfinding (2011 – 2012)

Atkins developed a wayfinding strategy, including sign placement and design, for both pedestrians and drivers for the external (landside) areas of Dubai Airport. We used our expertise to support context sensitive information design to ensure development of an inclusive wayfinding system for the diverse range of visitors and passengers using Dubai Airport. We communicated international best practice to the client team to enable us to progress a wayfinding strategy appropriate for the airport and its ongoing plans for growth. Effective liaison with the client meant that the system could integrate with the wayfinding requirements in the internal areas of the airport which were being progressed in a parallel task.
