Is the property you have simple to navigate? Or do individuals oftentimes stop to request directions? Efficient wayfinding solutions may provide individuals the confidence in knowing where they are headed, even if it is their first visit. Below are some ideas to take the wayfinding of your property to the next level. Incorporate Themes Enhance a property’s visual graphics and wayfinding signs with themes that differentiate a variety of spaces. For instance, eBay’s headquarters inside San Jose, CA contains buildings which are named after merchandise categories that the company sells (Toys, Music, Collectibles, etc.). The offices and rooms of every building is decorated and named after certain products of that particular category. Themed wayfinding signs not just help visitors find their way easily, yet also increase the culture of the company.

Beautify a space and point individuals in the proper direction by adding special designs to your wayfinding signage which complements your interior décor and branding. Create depth using directional signs using a variety of overlays and textures. Utilize back-lit signs in order to brighten the hallways up. Integrate identification signs with door graphics, wall murals, and much more. Situate Building Maps within Helpful Spaces Provide guests peace-of-mind by putting several directories and maps in convenient spaces all throughout the property like the entryways, lobby, stairwells and elevators. If it is a big campus that has several buildings, place exterior, durable map signage along pathways in order to develop a designated space which permits space for guests to stop in and locate their bearings. Select map designs which include landmarks, clear labels, nearby attractions, as well as “You are here” marker. Think about offering printed brochures of the map for guests to take along with them as they navigate all throughout the property. You  Can Think Outside The Box Make the wayfinding signs stand out with arrow-shaped, dimensional signage that helps point the way, customized designs that complement your branding, as well as unique shapes that reflect all surrounding architecture.
