Who are subway cars designed for? ๐ก๐ฒ๐ ๐ฌ๐ผ๐๐ฟ ๐๐ถ๐๐ ๐ง๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ explores alternative designs for NYC subway cars to serve all. How can our subway system accommodate wheelchairs, strollers, bikes, luggage, and people? How can subway poles be redesigned to allow more people to reach - to have access.
Through engaging posters and minimal intervention, ๐ก๐ฒ๐ ๐ฌ๐ผ๐๐ฟ ๐๐ถ๐๐ ๐ง๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ studies and speculates what a better New York City subway car could look like, by giving agency to the transit user - you.
