For many years Rivermeade Signs has been involved in wayfinding and sign design consultancyoriginally only for hotels but more recently also for architectural projects.The creation ofRivermeade Design as a separate trading division of Rivermeade Signs recognises theincreasing importance of our consultancy work.
We believe that the close relationship between the consultancy and manufacturing parts ofour business benefits our consultancy clients.
It enables us to stay firmly grounded in manufacturing reality – we will not propose sign designs thatcannot be made – and it also allows us to monitor costs and budget projections as a continuing partof the design process.
When Rivermeade Design is employed as consultants we ask that Rivermeade Signs beincluded within the list of companies invited to tender for the manufacture and installation ofthe sign package.
Rivermeade Design provides wayfinding and sign design consultancy services to many leadinghotel operators, architects, interior designers and procurement companies.
