The Flight 93 National Memorial commemorates the passengers and crew of United Flight 93 who, on September 11, 2001, gave their lives to prevent a planned attack on the U.S. Capitol. Located at the crash site, the 2,200-acre memorial transforms a former field into a place of reflection, reverence, and national remembrance.
Linespace was honored to be selected by Paul Murdoch Architects as the graphic design and signage consultant for this historic project. Our role included the typographic design and layout of the 40 names etched into the memorial wall, created to evoke both contemplation and timeless tribute. Every detail was approached with reverence, balancing visual restraint with emotional clarity to honor the memory of the heroes of Flight 93.
A stone timeline tracing the events of that tragic day is inlaid along the ceremonial walkway, offering visitors a subtle but powerful chronology. Throughout the site, understated signage supports orientation while maintaining the solemnity of the landscape. A custom park entry monument provides a distinct yet respectful identity, welcoming visitors to a space defined by sacrifice, national unity, and enduring legacy.
