Effective wayfinding signage helps people navigate a building or property quickly and confidently. A well-designed signage system can direct visitors to offices, departments, rooms, entrances, exits, parking areas, restrooms, elevators, reception areas, and other destinations while creating a consistent and professional appearance throughout your facility.
Signarama Greenville creates custom wayfinding signs, directional signs, room identification signs, office signs, building directories, parking signs, entrance signs, and other navigation signage for businesses and organizations.
Wayfinding signage can be designed around the layout and needs of your property. Use consistent colors, fonts, arrows, symbols, logos, and other visual elements to create an easy-to-follow system that helps visitors navigate from one location to another.
Interior wayfinding is especially useful for office buildings, healthcare facilities, schools, universities, senior living communities, hotels, retail centers, corporate campuses, and other large or multi-room facilities.
Exterior wayfinding can help direct traffic and pedestrians throughout commercial properties, campuses, parking areas, developments, and large business facilities. Exterior signs can identify entrances, exits, buildings, parking areas, loading zones, visitor areas, and other important destinations.
Good wayfinding isn't just about putting up signs. The placement, size, visibility, wording, colors, symbols, and consistency of each sign can all contribute to making a property easier to navigate.
Wayfinding & Directional Sign Placement
Wall-Mounted Directional Signs
Wall-mounted directional signs provide a clean and effective way to guide visitors through hallways, lobbies, corridors, and other interior spaces. They can identify nearby rooms, offices, departments, entrances, restrooms, elevators, and other destinations.
Wall-mounted signs can be customized with your brand colors, typography, logos, arrows, symbols, and other design elements to create a consistent wayfinding system throughout your building.
Projecting & Blade Wayfinding Signs
Projecting or blade signs extend from a wall so they can be viewed from multiple directions. This makes them useful in hallways, corridors, entrances, and other locations where visitors may approach from different directions.
These signs can be customized with directional arrows, text, symbols, room numbers, or other information to help people quickly identify the correct path.
Ceiling-Hung Directional Signs
Ceiling-hung wayfinding signs can be useful in larger spaces where wall-mounted signs may not be visible from a distance or where wall space is limited. Suspended signs can be viewed from multiple directions and can help direct visitors through larger open areas.
Depending on the application, ceiling-hung signs can be designed with information on one or both sides.
Freestanding Wayfinding Signs
Freestanding directional signs provide flexibility when signs need to be positioned away from walls or buildings. They can be used indoors or outdoors to identify entrances, buildings, parking areas, pedestrian routes, or other destinations.
Freestanding signs can incorporate directional arrows, maps, logos, text, and other information depending on the needs of the property.
Interior Office & Room Identification Signs
Room identification is an important part of an effective wayfinding system. Individual office and room signs can identify departments, conference rooms, offices, restrooms, meeting spaces, and other destinations.
These signs can be designed to coordinate with your larger wayfinding system while making each location easy to identify.
Exterior Wayfinding & Directional Signs
Exterior directional signs help people navigate larger properties before they even enter a building. Signs can direct visitors toward entrances, parking areas, specific buildings, loading zones, visitor parking, and other destinations.
Exterior wayfinding can be especially valuable for business campuses, healthcare facilities, schools, apartment communities, commercial developments, and multi-building properties.
ADA & Accessible Wayfinding Signs
Accessible signage can help people navigate your facility while supporting accessibility requirements. Depending on the application, signs may incorporate features such as tactile lettering, Braille, high-contrast colors, and other accessibility elements.
Our team can help identify signage applications where accessible or ADA-related features may be appropriate for your project.
Branded Wayfinding Systems
Wayfinding signs don't have to look generic. Colors, typography, logos, shapes, and other visual elements can be incorporated throughout your signage system to create a cohesive appearance that reflects your business or organization.
A consistent wayfinding system can help your property feel more organized while reinforcing your brand throughout the visitor experience.
Wayfinding & Directional Sign Types
Interior Wayfinding Signage
Interior wayfinding signage is essential for guiding visitors, staff, and customers through offices, hospitals, schools, and retail spaces. Well-placed signs reduce confusion and create a seamless experience, which is especially important in large or multi-level buildings. Options like wall mounted, ceiling hung, and blade signs can be customized with clear text, icons, and ADA-compliant features. High-quality materials and professional installation ensure your signs remain attractive and legible for years.
Exterior Wayfinding Signage
Exterior wayfinding signage is designed to withstand the elements while providing clear directions to entrances, parking, and facilities. These signs are vital for campuses, business parks, healthcare centers, and event venues where first impressions matter. Durable materials such as powder-coated metals and laminated graphics resist fading, rust, and vandalism. Freestanding and wall mounted options can be customized with maps, logos, and reflective finishes for nighttime visibility.
Digital Wayfinding Signs
Digital wayfinding signs offer dynamic guidance for complex environments like airports, shopping malls, and large corporate campuses. These signs feature interactive maps, real-time updates, and multi-language support to enhance the visitor experience. Digital displays can be wall mounted, freestanding, or integrated into kiosks, providing flexibility and modern appeal. Content can be updated remotely, making it easy to manage tenant changes, event schedules, or emergency information.
