The City of Hartford wanted to install engaging streetscape wayfinding to attract new business and visitors to its downtown area. Two Twelve worked closely with the Hartford Business Improvement District the Connecticut Department of Transportation and city stakeholders to create attractive new signage in keeping with the city’s heritage. For the design of the Destination Hartford sign program we combined prefabricated poles already used by the city, richly colored sign panels and ironwork reminiscent of details on the city’s landmark train station. Thanks in part to the signage program’s tailored new look, Hartford has been successful in attracting new business and investment to the historic core of Connecticut's State Capitol.
