Parking. Love it or hate, it’s a necessary evil. As we’ve previously discussed, there are more than 105 million commercial parking spaces in the U.S. And those numbers show no signs of waning as cities and suburbs welcome new residents and businesses every day, increasing the demand for more – and more and still more – parking facilities.
Achieving a custom, branded aesthetic while enhancing the form and function of a space is the end goal of any signage project but with so many signs to consider, there are some instances when it’s necessary to streamline the process.
With a sign system – essentially serving as a blueprint – that streamlines your custom interior sign solution, you can simplify the entire process, from ideation to execution, with expert consideration paid to the nuances of ADA, wayfinding, and décor to make sure you get your signs right the first time.
And it all starts with compliance.
When you consider that most – if not all – guests staying in a hotel are there because they’re visiting from elsewhere, it makes sense that we’ve covered the topic of hotel signage and wayfinding extensively.
Because from navigating the parking lot to wayfinding in the lobby, common areas, corridors, and hallways, hotel signage proves unimaginably critical for guests trying to get from where they are to where they want to be.
Here, we’ve rounded up some of our best articles on all things hospitality: common pitfalls in hospitality signage, interior hotel signage, exterior hotel signage, and hotel signage programming and design.
Illuminated signage and lighting are often located on the front of a building to advertise a business with the added benefit of being visible from quite a distance, day or night. Since illuminated signage solutions are effective in virtually every industry – from healthcare to education, to restaurants and retail, hospitality and more – it seems there are no limits to what innovative illuminated signs and lighting can do for businesses. Here are a few of their advantages.
While wayfinding is an essential part of any space, it’s so much more than directional signage, often leaving business and building owners overwhelmed by the prospect of getting it right.
Wayfinding helps inform visitors’ immediate decisions upon entering your space and guides them as they navigate themselves to each destination therein, providing spatial problem-solving.
From opening or moving a business to wayfinding, to making your brand stand out, custom architectural signs communicate far beyond the words printed on them. They convey a brand, message, and energy all your own – so it’s important to take the time to make sure your signs effectively communicate with every prospective consumer and patron.
Whether you’re developing a corporate office building, hotel or other space, commercial buildings require interior signage with attention paid to every detail.
From creative wayfinding, to statement pieces, to room numbers, to ADA/Code Compliant signage, it’s important to design architectural interior signs and graphics– that satisfy both form and function – early on to align with the project as a whole.
We’ve all experienced navigation anxiety. Arriving somewhere new and unfamiliar without proper – or any – wayfinding or signage can cause frustration and concerns that a misstep could cost us time, money or – in some cases – safety.
And given the scale of today’s college campus environments, administrators can help visitors avoid these feelings by establishing a strong foundation for an integrated wayfinding program with the following considerations.
When creating and executing a regional or nationwide business signage and branding campaign, it’s imperative that design, sign specs, and colors are consistent with what a client expects and every customer recognizes.
Still, signage is arguably one of the most overlooked marketing tools available today. Why? Because often, companies buy inexpensive digital signage expecting technology to be rendered obsolete every few years. Others take a one-sign-fits-all approach, prioritizing implementation over strategy.
While signage is not often associated with corporate culture, the fact is that humans are inherently visual. And few things can communicate a message, feeling or identity than creating a corporate aesthetic that offers a physical, visual manifestation of something far more intangible – a feeling.
And that’s the goal of corporate culture. Inextricably linked to a company’s vision and mission, corporate culture is the only environment that you can feel. It’s the feeling in the pit in your stomach when you dread going to work or the excitement you feel when you’re actually excited to go to work.
