These two cases come from medical facilities in North America, aiming to improve patient navigation and reduce staff burden by using clearly visible and intuitive floor wayfinding graphics. The solution enhances spatial order and efficiency in high-traffic hospital areas.

  Case 1: Multi-Department Color-Coded Pathways (Left Image)

  This design uses color-separated lanes to guide patients to different departments—red for Emergency, yellow for Laboratory, blue for Cafeteria, etc.—with bold arrows and text for easy recognition.

• Application Area: Hospital main entrance / front desk area

• Purpose: Help patients reach destinations independently without needing to ask staff

• Highlight: Parallel colored lanes with clean direction lines and labels

• Surface: Applied on polished terrazzo floor, using anti-slip matte finish material

  Case 2: Radiology Department Floor Marking (Right Image)

  This corridor floor graphic features repetitive “X-ray” labels with arrows, creating a consistent visual path for patients to follow from the waiting area to the radiology room.

• Application Area: Clinic hallway / Radiology department access

• Purpose: Ensure smooth and orderly patient flow

• Design: Bold yellow background with black arrows and text, following common hospital color coding

• Maintenance: Easy to clean, waterproof and slip-resistant, suitable for medical environments

  Floor wayfinding graphics like these are ideal for complex medical spaces with intersecting corridors and multiple departments. Compared to wall signs, floor graphics provide a more intuitive, accessible, and user-friendly guide—visible exactly where patients need it most.

Customized content and color planning help hospitals enhance navigation efficiency and overall user experience.
