The approach

Practical signage with a clear commercial purpose.

High-visibility freestanding signs for entrances, retail destinations, campuses and multi-tenant sites.

Freestanding shopping centre totem sign

A visible marker at the point of arrival

Height, orientation and information hierarchy are planned around how people approach the site. Totems can carry a single identity, multiple tenant names or directional information.

  • High visibility at site entrances
  • Identity, directory and direction in one sign
  • Single and multi-tenant layouts

Before you brief

Useful things to know.

Straight answers on materials, process and what we need from you - so the brief starts in the right place.

What is a totem sign?

A totem is a freestanding vertical sign used to mark an entrance, identify a destination, list tenants or provide directions.

Can a totem sign be illuminated?

Yes. Illumination can be integrated where stronger visibility after dark is required, subject to the design and site constraints.

Can tenant panels be updated?

Yes. Multi-tenant totems can be designed with replaceable panels so individual names can be changed without remaking the full structure.
