Our people

At Steer, Germán leads the strategy for Latin America and is part of the executive team, focusing on the planning, structuring, and delivery of public transport and infrastructure projects. With a distinguished background in transport consultancy, he specialises in creating innovative solutions for sustainable transport systems, designing financing models, and providing strategic advice to governments, multilateral organisations, and the private sector.

Projects

Steer was commissioned with our mapping partners, T-Kartor, by the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) to improve and systematise the design of their local transit network diagrams and posters. Key to this assignment was the opportunity to integrate the TO360 wayfinding map base to provide consistent information across different transportation environments and modes.

Projects

Toronto’s PATH is the world’s largest underground retail complex. It connects the office towers in Downtown Toronto, Canada and provides an important contribution to the economic viability of the city's downtown core. The system links seamlessly with public transit, and experiences more than 200,000 business-day commuters, and thousands of additional tourists, visitors and residents.

Projects

The Steer design team was approached by Luton Borough Council to develop a visual identity and wayfinding signage system for The Vale Cemetery and Crematorium on the outskirts of Luton town centre. This was the first time we had ever worked on such a project but were happy to accept the challenge!

 

Projects

San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) commissioned Steer to develop a Transportation Demand Management (TDM) plan to help manage congestion in the North Coast Corridor (NCC) during the implementation of a comprehensive package of highway, rail, transit, environmental protection, coastal access improvements and to act as a foundation for travel behaviour change in the corridor. Our design team developed a project identity (TDM brand) to support communication of the project to local target audiences.

Projects

The Steer design team produced a travel information pack for Lend Lease. The travel information pack presents the benefits of travel to an office location in Stratford.

Projects

The Steer design team has worked with Regent’s University London since November 2015 to develop a site-wide wayfinding system. The key objective of the work is to deliver a comprehensive wayfinding system that will improve the visitor and student experience while projecting the University's unique character.

Projects

The TO360 wayfinding strategy supports walking as the connecting mode that enables multi-modal transportation in Toronto. TO360 provides information for pedestrians, cyclists, transit users and motorists through unified signage and mapping systems delivered consistently by the City of Toronto and its project partners.

Projects

Following on from our successful delivery of Toronto City's TO360 wayfinding strategy we were appointed by the City of Toronto’s Parks, Forestry & Recreation team to deliver an ambitious project aimed at improving wayfinding across the City’s 1600+ parklands. 

Projects

The project consisted of design and preparation of documents for the South Sub-Regional Transport Plan (SRTP) updates for five London sub-regions. The SRTP was first developed in 2010 and it helped to translate the Mayor’s Transport Strategy goals, challenges and outcomes at a sub-regional level. Key challenges identified for all sub-regions were improving air quality, reducing CO2 emissions and increasing cycling and walking.
