Wayfinding Plans and Signage Design

HKGi’s park, trail, and urban design services have also included developing wayfinding plans for park and trail systems, downtowns or other destination districts, and even in some cases citywide wayfinding. These services typically include the development of signage system concepts for clients and communities to evaluate and guide decision-making in future implementation phases.
