    Wayfinding is the system to guide or orient people through a physical space. With the use of signage or landmarks, people can use these wayfinding elements to get from point A to B. Incorporate your brand and make wayfinding your own creative compass. Here are some tips to get started with your wayfinding strategy.

    Create an identity for each location, make them different. With the use of color, pattern, or imagery, having a unique look for each location will help the person remember if they need to go back or indicate they have entered a new area. 

    Use directional arrows and maps on your signage. Keep things simple and use iconography or maps to help easily identify destinations. Integrate these elements right into the floor design so people know they’re on the right path or guide them where they need to be.

    Incorporate wayfinding with your interior design and branding. Just because you want to add wayfinding into your space doesn’t mean it has to be bland. Incorporate your brand colors, patterns, and imagery into your space to create an immersive brand experience.

    Keep your signage consistent by utilizing your branding. Put a directory right on the elevator doors.

    Integrate color coded markers right at the entrance so people get right to where they need to be.

    Each office is color coded and matches up to the directional lines in the floor.

    A city overview map of the area with point of interest called out on the map is great for visitors finding their destination or locals wanting to explore new places.

    A campus overview map helps visitors find where they need to go while also defining the boundaries of the campus itself.
    Not only will this sign point you in the right direction but will let you know how long of a walk it is from that point – super helpful!

    Don't be shy, integrate your wayfinding with your interior design.

    Unique wall graphics in each area will help people remember that location if they need to find it again.

    Combine information and interior design to create signs that enhance your space.

    Use iconography to help guide people through a space – no chance of getting lost here.

    Reach out to NorthPoint for creating, designing, and printing your wayfinding strategy!

    Ever been asked to add a few more pages to your document so it becomes a multiple of four? Here’s why!

    When printing a brochure or booklet, page count must be a multiple of four such as 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, and so on. Pages of your booklet are created by printing on a single sheet of paper folded in half. This sheet will contain two pages on the front side and two pages on the back side, so it will always be a multiple of four.

    Exception:
    The only exceptions are using wire bound, spiral bound, and perfect bound binding techniques. They’ll be counted by a multiple of two due to using single sheets.


    Pro tip: Be sure you determine your binding technique before you start creating to determine if page count is important.

    Branding is essentially the face of the company. It’s meant to be recognizable and give an intro to who the company or product is. After some time these brands become integrated into pop culture hoping to become familiar to you! After a while, you don’t even need to read these fond logos anymore, and you can instantly recognize them by their color and shapes.

    Now that some these popular brands are fused into your subconscious, look at these competitor logo swaps to see how uncomfortable they make you feel! Do any look like an improvement to you? Does it change how you would perceive that brand compared to their real branding? Or are they just logo no-no’s?
