Griffith Park Wayfinding Signs

Cartifact

 

Cartifact is happy to have completed a comprehensive wayfinding project for the City of Los Angeles Department of Recreation and Parks for one of the world's largest urban parks, Griffith Park.

Installing the large map signs

The approximately 100 signs throughout the Park include large maps at major trailheads, as well as smaller directional signs at most trail intersections. The signs were designed to be as inconspicuous as possible and to help navigate large volumes of tourists around the Hollywood Sign - a sensitive issue for local residents.

Signs are graffiti resistant and heavy duty installation is intended to minimize vandalism

We're excited to see the signs in place, and they provide a nice complement to the Map & Guide of Griffith Park, the official handout brochure which has been produced by Cartifact for a number of years. We hope our work results in the safe enjoyment of the Park, with fewer lost hikers and a more easily navigable trail system, especially for the many visitors who are tourists unfamiliar with the area.

 

Interactive Real Estate Mapping

Cartifact

 

Here at Cartifact we are continuously pushing ourselves to develop creative new maps, graphics, and marketing visuals, hoping to redefine the way our clients are able to present and market their real estate assets.

As available technology continuously evolves, we evolve along with it. We learn new skills every day, and all the while we are racking our brains over how we can reasonably and effectively apply that knowledge to the benefit of our clients while still maintaining our efficient, practical, and effective production workflow.

Here we've taken a dive into interactive mapping to show some of the things that are now possible.

The map style and content is all fully customizable.

We can add layers, remove, and interactive with them, all in a fluid continuous experience.

Interactive mapping provides a dynamic way to present a property, and it allows for guided exploration of some of the features of the location.

We added a couple of common features here (amenities and competitors), but we could have gone the whole hog and shown color-coded transit lines, tech firms with logos, and more.
