A wayfinding system is a set of visual cues and signage that helps people navigate a physical space, such as a city, building, or campus. It includes directional signs, maps, symbols, and graphics that provide clear and concise information about where to go and how to get there. The goal of a wayfinding system is to help people feel comfortable and confident in unfamiliar environments, reducing confusion and frustration and enhancing their overall experience. Wayfinding systems are commonly used in public spaces, such as airports, hospitals, museums, and shopping malls, as well as transportation systems and urban environments.
