YYC in ASL Bike Rack

BIKE RACK DESIGN

1 St & 17 Ave S.E., Calgary, AB

HAWK is a part of Project Bike Racks, a collective of designers working to develop interesting streetscapes through the use of functional public art. We've helped install a number of bike racks in Calgary's downtown, including this sign-language inspired three-piece rack off 17 Ave S.E.

Approach

Community inspired

In 2017, the McHugh House was moved to this spot from its longtime home on 18 St S.W. Since then, it's become a hub for grassroots activity in Calgary’s Beltline community.

YYC in American Sign Language

We took a spin on the classic YYC and spelled out our love for Calgary in American Sign Language.
