What is wayfinding?
Wayfinding is the main element of Environmental Graphic Design (EGD), it refers to the graphical information systems that guide people through unfamiliar environment and improve their understanding and experience of the space. As architectural environments become complicated, people need visual indications and signs for information, orientation and navigation purposes.
When creating a signage system for an area, building or architectural structure it is important to develop a strategic wayfinding plan. With this step you are able to build up an integrated comprehensive wayfinding system.
Exterior & interior signage systems are considered to be the most important means to communicate wayfinding information about physical spaces. Signs communicate meaningful messages that help people find their way towards the intended destination.
Signs can be divided into four main categories:
- Information signs
- Directional signs
- Identification signs
- Warning signs
