Wayfinding



Wayfinding
Installed by our expert sign fitters, our wayfinding and directional signage is selected, designed and manufactured with professional services in mind. It is vital to help staff and visitors navigate around the premises with ease. From eye-catching directories in reception areas to clear door signs and corridor markers, these essential elements guide clients, employees, and guests to their destinations efficiently while projecting your personality and professionalism.
To complement directional signage, well-placed health and safety signs are crucial for helping visitors navigate and use the facilities safely. Whether it’s emergency exit signs or fire safety, these signs are compliant and secure the welfare of everyone who enters your premises.
By providing clear, consistent and effective wayfinding solutions, it ensures that daily operations run smoothly, reduces confusion and creates a clear path for visitors.
You will need:
- Directional signage external and internal, such as post and panel signs, monoliths and totems and outdoor plaques
- Wall graphics and floor graphics for creative wayfinding
- Door signs and nameplates to highlight information without disturbance
Internal Signs



Internal Signs
Internal signage solutions are essential for professional services that have offices with reception areas and those that welcome guests and external clients. Internal signage can be used to coordinate and provide navigation for visitors, enhancing the space alongside other signage options.
Signage elevates your brand and helps to create a sense of professionalism and personality to highlight the business’s values. Using graphics and wallpapers, as well as digital signage, can advance your presence and leave lasting impressions.
Internal signage is not only key for external guests, but also for the staff who work there, to inspire and encourage productivity through transforming spaces and meeting rooms. Branding ensures a harmonious environment where everyone feels united and part of a team.
You will need:
- Reception signs to welcome and initiate directories for visitors
- Custom wallpaper and wall graphics to create identity and consistent branding
- Digital signage to highlight important messages, such as freestanding, wall-mounted screens, interactive or video walls
- Architectural finishes such as wood, metallic, stone or textile finishes
- Window graphics for internal use within meeting rooms, breakout spaces or dividers for privacy
External Signage



External Signage
Clear, cohesive, and thoughtfully designed exterior signage not only communicates essential information but also leaves a lasting impression, enhancing the visitor experience and conveying trust, professionalism, and attention to detail from the very first glance.
Exterior signs are just as crucial for professional services as interior signage, playing a key role in creating a positive first impression and guiding visitors effectively. Well-placed exterior posts, totems, and directional signs help clients and guests navigate parking areas, locate building entrances, and find their way around the premises with ease.
In addition to their practical wayfinding function, external signs, such as outdoor plaques, also serve as an important branding tool, projecting a consistent professional image and reinforcing the organisation’s identity before anyone even steps inside.
You will need:
- Window graphics, to use on exteriors of buildings for branding or safety, including frosted window decals, window manifestations and one way window film
- Fascia signs are used to signpost areas of property, such as built up letters and logos, canopies and awnings, projecting signs and flex face signs.
- Post and panel for entrances and welcome messaging, maps and directions
- Monoliths and totems to visibly attract and inform visitors
