Our recent project for Yankee Stadium appears in the initial issue of segdDESIGN in 2010 with a six page spread entitled, “Yankees Go Home.” In the article, the Stadium’s signage, graphics, and museum are discussed from a vantage point about how our firm provided “context in another kind of American monument: the baseball cathedral.”

Tomorrow evening, partner Steff Geissbuhler will be speaking to students at the University of Cincinnati about his recent projects and some from the firm’s other disciplines. He will be presenting recent identity work executed for Morgan Stanley Smith Barney, Alhurra TV Network, Darien Library, and the Nonprofit Finance Fund, as well as the firm’s signage, architectural graphics, and exhibits at the new Yankee Stadium.
The Yankees solidified their 27th World Series title in their new stadium last night against the Phillies, with a final score of 7 to 3. In response, we’ve updated our video chronicling the the firm’s design process for Yankee Stadium’s graphics, signage and wayfinding program, and museum exhibits, with a new ending: 2009 Champs.

This video was prepared for an AIGA/NY lecture just a few weeks ago, but seems even more appropriate to post here during the current playoffs. C&G Partners created the graphics, signage, wayfinding and museum exhibits at the all-new Yankee Stadium in New York City. This short, fast-paced piece shows how the entire design program comes together across the entire Stadium. (Go Yankees!)

The firm’s graphics, signage program and museum for Yankee Stadium were profiled in the September 2009 issue of GDUSA magazine. Excerpts: the firm “captured the origins of the 1923 stadium in a contemporary setting,” and “the Yankee brand experience was apparent in every aspect of the venue.”

The signage, architectural graphics and museum exhibits designed by the firm for Yankee Stadium appear in the September 2009 issue of Interior Design magazine. As the Yankees continue a successful 2009 season, we are honored to have collaborated with them and with the design and construction team — Populous, Tishman Speyer, Turner Construction and many others — that created the new Stadium.
Partner Jonathan Alger will be participating in an evening sponsored by AIGA/NY in their member series “My Dog and Pony II.” Designers from four firms will be revisiting one pitch they made in the past to a potential client, then revealing what happened afterwards. Jonathan will talk about the initial presentation done for the recently completed Yankee Stadium project.
The event will take place on Monday, September 28th from 7 – 8:30 PM at Galapagos Art Space in Brooklyn. See all the details and register here.
Local fans may not have cheered the final score last Thursday, but the Stadium itself got a lot of attention. Two of the installations conceived and designed by C&G Partners appeared in the sports pages of the New York Times that day in an article about baseball icon Yogi Berra. Berra, famous for his abilities and “Berra-isms” alike, is one of two players featured in a tableau of the “perfect game” that is the centerpiece of the new Yankees Museum.
The fans have begun to make Yankee Stadium their own in the time-honored way: by uploading digital images to Flickr. Here are some of the images fans have been uploading thus far, all of which feature the signage and architectural graphics designed by C&G Partners. In one, the custom wordmark for the stadium itself, which was drawn by the firm, becomes the star of the show, appearing live, even bigger than normal, on the big screen during gametime. All pictures by fans.
A sneak peek video tour of the new Yankee Stadium is currently up in the “video corner” of the Yankee website. Among other things, the tour features the Great Hall banners, museum, large-scale signage, murals and audio programs designed by C&G Partners.
The first baseball game in the new Yankee Stadium will be played tonight, an exhibition game between the Yankees and the Chicago Cubs, and the press is full of images of the new stadium, with signage, architectural graphics and a new Yankees Museum by C&G Partners. Here are a few images from slideshows from the NY Daily News. Stay tuned for more images from all of the opening events.
C&G Partners is working on the signage, architectural graphics and exhibits at the new Yankee Stadium, which opens to the public next month. Although the project is still officially under wraps until the public opening, images of the work in progress have been appearing in various places (see previous post) for a few months and in the Yankees official online photo galleries. Last week, this image of the exterior facade of the new stadium appeared in the New Yorker, in an article by Paul Goldberger. The architectural graphics shown in the image were designed by the firm.
The Yankees project is being led by Partner Keith Helmetag and Associate Partner Amy Siegel.
