Enhance Your Office Ambiance with Custom Office Signs

Take a moment to evaluate your New York business space. Have you created a warm, welcoming environment for customers and guests? Will people feel well-informed when they arrive and throughout their time in your office? Does your space represent your brand well?

If you’re looking to augment your business space for any of these reasons, office signs can help. A variety of signs, crafted with your brand in mind, will support the noted functions. Plus, each sign can be customized to align with your needs and achieve just the right ambiance for your office.

If you’re not sure which signs will benefit your business most, consider some of the following options. This range of office signs will make a big difference in the look and feel of your business space:

Lobby Signs

Create a focal point in your lobby with an impressive sign that reflects your business. A large floor sign that displays your company logo or an acrylic sign showcasing your wordmark will add a visual presence in your entryway. No matter which you choose, you’ll be able to create a strong first impression for your business when guests arrive.

There are several other lobby sign formats worth considering, depending on your space and budget:

• Dimensional letters
• Channel letters
• Backlit signs
• Hanging signs
• Metal signs

Materials matter here as much as the message. Brushed metal, glass, and acrylic all read as more sophisticated than a printed sign, and each one holds up well in a lobby that sees regular foot traffic.

Office Door Signs

Door signs may seem commonplace, but it’s important not to overlook how important they are. These signs will identify areas of your business so that people can find what they’re looking for quickly and easily. In addition to helping with wayfinding, office door signs can also be crafted with your branding to help people remember your business. Labeling storage rooms, break rooms, and individual workspaces with consistent signage also keeps day-to-day operations organized, so employees spend less time hunting for the room or resource they need.

Conference Room Signs

Conference rooms deserve their own signage, both to identify the room and to reflect the polish of your business. Conference room signs can range from a simple engraved plaque next to the door to a full room-numbering system for larger offices. If your conference rooms have glass walls, a frosted window film with your logo is worth considering as well. It adds privacy without closing off the room completely, and gives the space a more finished, professional look.

Safety and ADA Signs

When crafting office signage, you’ll want to keep in mind signage compliance. There are business signs that need to follow certain guidelines as mandated by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Abiding by these guidelines will ensure signs in your business keep people feeling safe and supported.

Restroom Signs

These signs improve the guest experience. Their function is to provide directions to the restrooms, identify the restrooms, and share additional information, such as helpful tips for handwashing. Restroom signs benefit guests and employees, helping to create a more comfortable business space for everyone on site.

Directory and Wayfinding Signs

Make it easy for new visitors and employees to navigate through your office with these informational signs. Directional signs pointing to conference rooms, departments, restrooms, and elevators create a more organized environment and give people a clear way to find what they’re looking for. For multi-tenant buildings, an indoor directory sign in the lobby can list every suite or department in one place, saving guests a trip to the front desk.

Nameplate, Desk, and Informational Signs

Nameplates and desk signs mark individual workspaces, offices, and departments. Beyond the practical benefit of helping people find the right person or team, they give employees a sense of ownership over their space, which can go a long way toward morale. Pair these with informational signs, such as policy notices, safety instructions, and employee directories, and you keep important information accessible without cluttering hallways or bulletin boards.

Wall Murals

Improve the décor in your office with an informational, promotional, or decorative wall mural. These signs are digitally printed and give you endless options for design, from a large motivational quote in an employee break room to a mural depicting your company history, values, or team awards. They give a blank wall in your business real personality and showcase a design that guests are likely to remember.

Window Graphics

Pique attention from passersby with custom office signs for your windows. Window graphics turn your windows into a promotional space that looks great and advertises your business to people outside. They’re one of the most affordable window signs and can be custom printed to display the exact message your business needs.

Digital Signage

For offices that need to communicate information that changes often, digital signage is worth a look. A screen in the lobby or break room can display announcements, schedules, and company news, and the content can be updated in minutes without printing or reinstalling anything. It’s a practical option for larger offices or businesses with multiple departments that all need to stay in the loop.
