An office has many instances where signage is necessary to
facilitate function and flow. Obvious
things like restrooms and exits need to be clearly identified. In large office buildings, with multiple
tenants, it’s critical to properly guide guests to the correct office
space. However, have you considered how
signage can add to your office culture?
The style and colors of office signs such as name plaques on
an office cube will add an element to both your brand and also your office
culture. There is a clear difference
between what an accounting office may choose as a name plaque versus an
advertising agency. Name plaques, in
fact, have a big job to do. Some of the
functions names plaques could have in your office include:
1.
They need to clearly identify the person in the
office space. This helps to add a new
person to the team spirit of the organization by allowing others to quickly
learn their name.
2.
Name plaques could also carry an element of
recognition. Try adding years of service
as a way to recognize dedication to the company.
3.
Message boards are also helpful for team
building and associating them with a person is a good way for others to know
what meetings they may be attending for the day, or when that person might be
back at their desk.
4.
Name plaques don’t have to been plain
anymore. Add your own company culture to
them. Different styles and colors are
all options for you.
