As revealed in Design Week, Start is one of the design consultancies to be given a place on the exclusive TFL roster.

 

Responsible for all major design issues concerning public transport in the capital, Transport for London made their appointments after a highly competitive 18 month selection process.

 

The roster, which won't be up for review until 2006, is split into three distinct frameworks - Architecture and Interiors, Product Design and Graphics and Corporate Identity. There are also several specific subsets within these frameworks.

 

Start will be working alongside TFL in the Graphics and Corporate Identity category.

 

Over the next 3 years, TFL will invest £20 million in design improvements, keeping the face of public transport up-to-date and improving the travelling experience for London's commuters.
