Wayfinding signage refers to signs that provide information to people that directs them around the environment, for example, an office building. These signs help people reach their intended destination in the shortest amount of time and they can figure it out independently and not need to rely on someone who knows their way around the building.

The main focus of these types of signs is directing people. They do not usually display a lot of information; they are simple and concise signs that are designed to be efficient at conveying the necessary information in an easy to understand universal manner.
