Wayfinding
We design wayfinding and orientation systems. A good sense of orientation is a basic need and a key factor for our well-being. With wayfinding systems, we shape how we move through a space, how we navigate it, and how we experience it to the fullest. Wayfinding and orientation systems reinforce the identity of a place, create positive experiences, and empower people to move freely.
Brands
We design brand identities. Excellent visual representation and clear communication make it possible to convey key messages and themes effectively. This creates a unique, authentic identity that unfolds its full impact in every dimension. Well-crafted information design is also an essential component of a comprehensive corporate design.
Digital Products
We design digital applications, such as dynamic wayfinding systems or user interfaces for spatial displays. Functional, well thought-out, and focused on the essentials, these products are always part of comprehensive corporate design programs or spatial identities.

Routes and routines
Workshop at the HBKSaar
In railway stations and their surroundings, spatial communication has a significant influence on people’s movement behaviour. Can familiar routes be broken up? How can we encourage people to rethink their behaviour and use public space in a fairer and more sustainable way? Prof Heike Nehl and Prof Sibylle Schlaich are addressing these questions with students during a workshop week at HBKSaar.
