Directional and Office Signs in Riyadh
A clear system that helps the visitor reach their destination and identifies rooms, departments, and services in a visual language consistent with the identity of the place.
Why does the facility need a wayfinding system?
The signage board is not just an arrow or a room name; it is a decision point that helps the visitor know their location and the next direction. When names are repeated, board designs vary, or they are placed in late locations, questions increase and navigation within the facility becomes difficult.
A good system starts with studying the visitor’s path from the entrance to reception, then the corridors, elevators, and rooms. Then, the decision points and information that should appear at each point are determined, using a readable font, clear contrast, and understandable symbols.
TAL Advertising Agency implements internal office panels as well as identification and directional signs that link the function of the place with its visual identity, taking into account the possibility of updating employee or department names when changes are expected.
Components of the signage system
Directional signs
They appear at entrances, intersections, and elevators to guide visitors to departments and services.
Room Identification Signs
Display the office or department name or room number, and can be designed with updatable content.
Reception Signs
Identify the facility or display a simplified map of the floor and basic services.
Instruction Signs
Clarify alerts or usage procedures in a concise format with easily understandable symbols.
Selection of Material and Display Method
| Location | Possible Material | Installation Method | Design Priority |
|---|---|---|---|
| Entrance and Reception | Acrylic or Metal or Letters | Direct or with Spacing | Clarity of Identity and First Impression |
| Corridors | Light Panels or Acrylic | Wall-mounted or Hanging | Visibility Before Decision Point |
| Office Doors | Acrylic or Metal or Interchangeable System | Adhesive or Fasteners | Ease of updating the name |
| Service areas | Printed or cut panels | According to the surface | Abbreviation of instructions and symbols |
We choose the text size after knowing the distance and height, not just based on the visual size of the panel. We also determine the language or languages and the order of information before design so that phrases do not clutter.
When the project includes a large number of rooms, we create a unified database for colors, fonts, arrows, icons, and dimensions. This makes any new panel later an extension of the same system.
What Determines the Project Cost?
The quotation does not depend on the product name alone; rather, it depends on a set of details that affect the materials, preparation time, and method of execution. Therefore, we review the following elements before presenting the quotation:
Size and quantity
Material consumption and preparation time vary according to the dimensions and number of pieces, and the production method may differ between a single piece and a repeated quantity.
Material and finishing
Materials differ in thickness, color, texture, and durability, and processes such as cutting, printing, edging, or lighting add different stages.
Design readiness
The ready file with the correct size, resolution, and cut paths is different from a project that requires design or redraw of the logo and technical preparation for printing.
Delivery or Installation
The work site, type of surface, height, and execution time affect the method of transport, installation, and tools required for the project.

Information We Need for an Accurate Quotation
Photo of the Site or Surface
The background, space, and surrounding elements are clarified and help in determining the appropriate mounting style and contrast.
Approximate Dimensions
The width and height or an image including a measurement reference can be sent, then the final dimensions are reviewed before manufacturing.
Logo and Text
It is preferable to send the original logo files, the final text, the required language, and any approved brand colors.
Quantity and Required Date
Determining the quantity, date, and place of delivery or installation helps to clearly organize the stages of design and production.
