Harrogate Hospital Wayfinding
Our ‘first steps’ document provided material from which we were able to run consultations with various groups, and then install a pilot scheme in one of the hospitals six wings
The pilot scheme enable us to test both the addressing, and the sign family
Our process of breaking this project down into a series of firm deadlines and sign-off points meant delivery was on time and budget
A logical numbering system creates fixed, and unique, addresses
A successful wayfinding strategy is not just about 'signs', but includes the creation of memorable waypoints
Information points at public entrances and wing thresholds incorporate areas of strong colour, wayfinding, and other communications
Wing colour paintwork to doorways helps mark transitions between wings, and gives identity to areas of the hospital
