Wayfinding Signs in Charlotte

Coordinated Wayfinding Signs Guide Visitors from Arrival to Destination

Multiple entrances, parking areas, floors, and departments can leave visitors unsure where to go. At FASTSIGNS® of Charlotte, NC - Airport, we create custom signs and graphic solutions that clarify these routes while reflecting your brand and property.

Our local visual communications team provides project management from initial concept through completion. We identify destinations, map visitor traffic flow, and develop consistent visual cues for indoor and outdoor spaces.

Signs for Every Point Along the Visitor’s Route

Each part of a wayfinding system should perform a clear navigation task. Together, these signs can guide drivers and pedestrians from their arrival point to the correct destination.

A coordinated system may include:

• Directional signs: Point visitors toward offices, departments, restrooms, elevators, exits, and other destinations.
• Directory signs: Organize tenants, departments, offices, or destinations in one central location.
• Room identification signs: Label permanent rooms, entrances, buildings, and designated spaces.
• Parking and entrance signs: Direct vehicle and pedestrian movement through driveways, lots, campuses, and property entrances.
• Pictograms and maps: Present routes and destinations in a format visitors can scan quickly.

Interior signage can direct people through lobbies, hallways, and multilevel buildings. Exterior signage establishes the route before they reach the front door by connecting parking areas, entrances, and other locations across the property.

How We Plan a Coordinated Wayfinding System

Effective wayfinding begins with understanding how people use the space. Our project managers, graphic designers, and visual communications team shape each sign system around the property’s destinations, brand standards, and communication goals.

We provide graphic design, content development, project management, and signage solutions under one roof. This coordinated approach keeps terminology, colors, typography, symbols, and sign functions consistent throughout the project.

Our planning process can address:

• Primary entrances and arrival points
• Vehicle and pedestrian traffic patterns
• Points where visitors must choose a direction
• Sight lines and potential sign locations
• Existing signs and architectural finishes
• Brand requirements and destination terminology
• Indoor and outdoor property conditions

What to Prepare for Your Charlotte Wayfinding Project

Start by identifying the destinations visitors need to reach and the routes they commonly take. Floor plans, site maps, brand guidelines, photographs, and an inventory of existing signs can give our team useful context for the initial discussion.

Property conditions and local requirements may affect sign placement, size, illumination, and permitting. We offer sign survey and permitting services to address relevant codes and project requirements as the work moves from concept toward completion.
