We Are Wayfinding Experts
Intertwined within each strategy is our compass: the Richards VESS™ system. VESS™ stands for Visitor Experience Score System. It guides us to guide you.
And we think of everything - placement, content, nomenclature, design, consistency, legibility, condition, functionality, personal support, collateral, digital tools, lighting, landmarks, key intersections, destinations, brand standards, cleanliness, websites, pre-arrival guides, maps, brochures, GPS, oh and there's more. Told you, wayfinding experts.
