design is a specialized field of signage design. It pertains to developing
signage for a particular environment. In many cases, this is a built
environment in either rural or urban settings. However, the vast majority of environmental
graphic design work is done in urban
settings where the construction and design of the establishments is getting
larger and more complex. The signage projects that are implemented in open air
or in natural environment are not considered part of the environmental graphics

markers and related installations has similar appearance. His is achieved by using
a consistent selection of colors, fonts and design elements.

its impact when the markers and signs are placed in less than suitable
positions. Proper positioning heightens the impact of the signs and ensures
