Wayfinding is informative signage created in a physical location to help people navigate their way to their intended destination.
Wayfinding signs are physical examples of user experience design. It marries aesthetics with practicality, allowing clients to optimize their space’s logistics.
Creating the best possible user experience reinforces brand quality.
If customers can easily find their way around your environment and it is a pleasant experience, they are more likely to return and become advocates for your space.
Effective wayfinding design is aesthetically pleasing while easily enabling foot and vehicle traffic to know where they are, and intuitively find where they need to get to. Wayfinding is used in a variety of spaces such as hospitals, shopping malls, universities, airports and community facilities. In each of these locations there are a number of factors to consider which includes:
Our progressive approach to wayfinding means that we recommend the latest technologies and design trends where they will add value to the space.
At Sign Nation, we develop wayfinding solutions that instil peace of mind so people can easily navigate through the space to their desired location. We enhance this experience with beautiful graphics and a sense of inclusion. This could be as simple as ensuring pictograms on bathrooms represent all people without any stereo-types attached.
To achieve this, we have a 4 step approach to Wayfinding:
Discovery Session First understand how people perceive the space and what their navigational requirements are. We then consult on the optimal design for the space.
Plan and Consult A walk through the space to identify the questions people ask at each intersection. We then map out the customer journeys before considering the design.
Design Here, we focus on a design that is both aesthetically pleasing and on-brand. We create mock-ups and test these in the space with a selection of people.
Implement Once we are happy with the design and testing, we proceed to production. At Sign Nation, we manufacture the signage on-site which ensures a high standard of quality and tighter cost control.

Utilising window films and frost is common to create security and privacy where required. Whilst plain frost works great in a classic environment, sometimes the use of graphical elements can bring extra life to your space. Whether through simple cut logos or printed elements and textures.
