Wayfinding and orientation systems
We develop barrier-free
wayfinding and orientation systems.
We specialize in the development of innovative and individual wayfinding systems. Our wayfinding systems are intuitive and user-friendly to ensure that visitors can navigate public spaces quickly and easily. We develop accessible communication online and offline according to WCAG 2.1 level.
We attach great importance to scalability and flexibility. Our wayfinding systems are able to keep pace with the changing needs of our customers and offer the possibility of integrating future architectural changes and technologies.
Orientation: In an orientation system, it is highly relevant for visitors to know where they are at all times, which direction they need to take to reach their destination and to show them the option of leaving the location again at any time. A good orientation system not only helps people find their way around with overview maps that show the current location, but above all with unmistakable features, clear communication and aesthetics.
Inform: The information system includes all signs and information elements that are not used to mark locations or provide orientation. Not only formal information such as opening hours, house rules or general safety instructions are provided, but also background information on current events and facilities, as well as tips on possible activities in the building or direct addresses to visitors.
Activate: The wayfinding system of public buildings and squares can begin outside the actual area, e.g. at traffic junctions, in public transportation or on roads. The focus here is on the progressive activation of potential visitors. The wayfinding system takes on a hybrid function between orientation and promotional activation. The design to be developed must enable both purposes and addresses without alienating the character of the building.
