guiding people
practical & creative signage
Effective directional signage should be clear, concise, and visually engaging
Wayfinding signage should use easily identifiable symbols and colours to ensure that it can be easily understood by people of all ages and backgrounds. Signage should also be placed strategically throughout the environment, guiding people along the most direct and efficient path to their destination.
There are several key principles that our designers keep in mind when creating directional signage. First, the signage should be easily readable from a distance, with bold, legible fonts and contrasting colours to ensure that it stands out.
consistency is key

Increasing the efficiency of wayfinding
Secondly, the signage should be consistent throughout the environment, using the same symbols and colours to help people quickly and easily identify key landmarks and destinations. This consistency helps to reduce confusion and increases the efficiency of wayfinding.
Third, our designers consider the specific needs of the individuals who will be using the signage. For example, signage in a hospital should be designed with the needs of patients in mind, using simple symbols and clear instructions to help them navigate the complex environment.
