Architectural Interior Wayfinding
A Complex Problem
Edmonton City Hall needed a cohesive architectural interior wayfinding system to simplify navigation, reduce wait times, and improve accessibility for all visitors. The challenge: create a solution that met ADA compliance, provided clear direction for every visitor, and enhanced the building’s user-friendliness—all while aligning with the City’s inclusivity goals.
A Simple Solution
Hi Signs partnered with Edmonton City Hall to design and implement a comprehensive interior wayfinding program. The system included custom maps, stairwell and floor markers, information stations, digital directory housings, and a prominent parkade entrance monument. To meet ADA standards, Hi Signs provided braille and tactile signage, crafted with advanced braille and 3D texture printing capabilities, reinforcing accessibility throughout the space.
The Result
Edmonton City Hall’s architectural interior wayfinding now ensures a seamless, efficient experience for all. Visitors can navigate with ease, while the inclusive design underscores the City’s commitment to accessibility, making City Hall an inviting and accessible public space.
