What do you see?
Navigation from place to place is a fundamental human activity and an integral part of everyday life. Where are you? Where are you heading to? People use their knowledge and previous experiences to find their way in the build environment. The human perception of the build environment and information in a space comes down to balance and focus.
Why Wayfinding?
Structures in the build environment are interpreted and stored by the human memory. Distances, locations and time may be remembered differently than as they appear to be in reality. Wayfinding and information systems will guide people through a space and increases the awareness of a brand in relation to human perception.
