Project Subway NYC is a multidisciplinary exploration of the city’s transit labyrinth, born from the author’s fascination and frustration with its infrastructure. Through a collection of sketches, photography and architectural drawings, it serves as an ongoing thesis on wayfinding, signage, architectural representation, and the nuances of underground accessibility.While the project remains a creative outlet, its architectural insights have found significant real-world application over the last ten years- from helping The New York Times visualize the location of a bomb threat to contributing to the ‘Accessible Station Lab’, a pilot program focused on enhancing wayfinding for the disabled.Moving forward, Project Subway NYC will continue to evolve as an open-ended investigation. It intends to push the boundaries of the archive by experimenting with new media and emerging technologies, ensuring that the study of “the city under the city” stays as dynamic and adaptive as the subway system itself.
