Interior Signs And Indoor Wayfinding Systems

Interior Sign Design

Interior signs are often an afterthought for most businesses, but they are of the upmost importance when it comes to clarity for your clients.  Having clear interior signs marking the reception area, offices and wayfinding helps direct your clients to their destination without them having to ask directions.

Reception Signs

A well branded office includes a custom reception sign.  It is one of the first things people notice as they enter your building, office and/or store.  Your reception sign should be welcoming and let the client know the level of professionalism they can expect from your company. It should reflect your standards of execellence and convey what your business can provide for them.

Interior Office Signs

Interior office signs are usually a mix of door signage and directories. They display who you can find and where you can find them.  Often office signs are name plates on the outside of a solid door, installed on a wall or part of a large plaque.

Vinyl decals applied to a glass door and/or window are also a great alternative.  Additionaly floor by floor directory systems give those inside the office a good indication of where their destinations are inside the bulding.

Wayfinding Signage

No one enjoys asking where to find the washroom or which hallway are the elevators located in.  Wayfinding signs give clarifciation where everything is in the building.  Whether it is to clearly mark which way to the stairwells or how to find the waiting room.

Interior Sign Design Options

There are several options when it comes to interior signs.  They can be custom crafted to match your current branding, or designed during a re-brand of your business.  You have the option of the size, logo, materials, colours and graphics when you choose a custom sign shop to create your indoor signs.

Indoor Sign Considerations

A few things to consider when it comes to your indoor signs

1. Are they in compliance with accessibility guidelines? Read more about ADA Signs and learn the Ontario and Canadian Accessibilty Standards 
2. Will the signs be installed in well lit areas or do the signs themselves need to to be lit?

1. Do the interior signs match the business branding?
2. Does the wayfinding signage flow from the time the client enters the building until they find their destination inside?

Once those four factors have been established, it’s time to contact an expert signmaker to get your signage package put together and installed to your satisfaction.
