Case Study | Transported by Design

When approached by Transport for London in 2016, we were thrilled to collaborate with such an iconic organisation.

Transported by Design celebrated the rich history of TfL design, from London buses to the iconic underground map.

The event was diverse, featuring everything from seminars and spinning classes to a London Underground train carriage in the middle of Regent Street, all executed to the highest standard.

Extraordinary Measures

Working on Regent Street since 2009, some truly surreal sights have been witnessed.

But none more so than TfL's request to bring a heritage London Underground train carriage to the iconic curve of Regent Street.

With weight limits on access roads and the extensive installation time for temporary railway tracks, the entire process from start to finish is something that will always be remembered by the Wilde Ones team.

Instant Access

Transported by Design gave us another opportunity to collaborate with a trusted supplier on Regent Street.

The striking structure above, installed by Instant Marquees, made a bold statement at the Conduit Street junction.

With high-profile events like Transported by Design, Wilde Ones has cultivated a solid network of suppliers who consistently deliver at the high service level we expect.

The Journey
       
     
The Journey

The event concept took guests on a journey through TfL's history, from its past at Piccadilly Circus to its future at Oxford Circus.

Site layout was critical to bringing this vision to life.

Placing a 100-year-old double-decker bus near the entrance at Oxford Circus was essential – as we were told, "Once she stops, she stops for a good few hours!"

It's the minute details like these that often shape the bigger picture. Wilde Ones takes pride in identifying and addressing these early on to ensure everything runs smoothly.

Consistent Theme

Working with the TfL design team, Wilde Ones provided the framework to create a truly memorable event that stayed on-brand and on-message.

With limited road closure time, careful scheduling was essential to ensure each activation was ready for the design team to install. Staggered builds and meticulous planning were key to executing such a production-heavy event.

The event's success was also due to the seamless aesthetic across all of Regent Street—an effort that proved worth every bit of planning.
