Project Description
Custom Wayfinding & Identity Systems
We build custom wayfinding and identity sign solutions through client collaboration, with long term focus on management and maintenance programs.
Designs for the Toughest Wayfinding Environments
Our custom approach results in a complete sign family that combines modular efficiency with unique attributes. We also develop planning and design guidelines that help guide ongoing efforts. We have applied this methodology our initiatives including:
A selection of modular signs and displays that can be customized to the institution
Custom fabrication capability ranging from signs, displays, donor recognition and even complete environments
A digital sign management system that allows for easy collaboration from initial planning to ongoing maintenance
Guidelines and purchasing systems that make ongoing brand management easy
An in-house installation team that responds quickly and can even guide installation by outside vendors and in-house staff
All of our wayfinding and identity sign solutions are scalable from small jobs to thousands of signs.
