West Hartford, CT – Interpretive Signs Project for Local Park from a Sign Compan

What are Interpretive Signs?

Interpretive signs are crucial in educating and engaging the ‘captive audience’ of locations rich in history or unique characteristics. These sign systems, commonly found in parks, zoos, museums, historical sites, and state forests, provide detailed information and narratives that enhance the visitor experience.

The interpretive signs designed for this project required a fabrication method that ensured durability and longevity, given their proximity to visitors and exposure to various weather conditions.

Material Used for the Signs: Custom High-Pressure Laminate (CHPL)

The interpretive signs produced by G-Force Signs & Graphics for this project were designed using custom high-pressure laminate (CHPL) panels. Known for their durability, CHPL signs withstand all weather conditions, from the scorching summer heat to the bitter winter frost, and are even resistant to graffiti.

This high-quality material choice guarantees that these interpretive signs remain vibrant and informative for years, enhancing the park’s visual landscape and visitor experience.

Benefits and the Impact on Elizabeth Park

Elizabeth Park, a beautiful local treasure in West Hartford, Connecticut, is celebrated for its picturesque landscapes and diversity of gardens. As part of their ongoing efforts to improve the visitor experience, the park management added interpretive signs to their existing collection. This new addition included two map signs and a directional sign pointing to the park’s hidden heritage rose garden.

Cohesive Design

G-Force Signs & Graphics was selected to create the new signs to ensure the continuity of design. G-Force Signs & Graphics had previously designed the existing interpretive signs within the park, so they were uniquely positioned to ensure seamless integration of the new signs. This uniformity creates a cohesive aesthetic that is pleasing to visitors and enhances the overall image of the park.

Enhancing Visitor Navigation

One of the most immediate and noticeable impacts of the new interpretive signs has been on navigation. The map signs have made it easier for visitors to navigate the park’s vast grounds, minimizing confusion and enhancing their overall park experience. The directional sign has also made the park’s hidden heritage rose garden more accessible, guiding visitors to a previously underappreciated part of the park.

Educational Engagement

Interpretive signs offer an educational element that enriches the visitor’s experience. Visitors now have the chance to learn more about the park’s history, its variety of flora, and the particular significance of the heritage rose garden. This deeper understanding fosters a greater appreciation for the park and strengthens the bond between the park and the community.

Boosting Visitor Traffic

Improved signs can have a positive effect on visitor numbers. A well-signed park is an inviting park. This, combined with the positive word-of-mouth generated by an enhanced visitor experience, can lead to increased footfall. An increase in visitor numbers is not only beneficial for the park but also for the local economy.
