Design & Artwork
Use-Cases for WAYFINDING
Printed Today’s carpet runners are ideal for guiding visitors through entrances, queue routes, corridors, and event routes. They provide clear directional cues and branding opportunities, enhancing both functionality and aesthetic appeal in any venue.
Design Specs
For optimal results, artwork should be submitted at a resolution of 150 DPI, with 300 DPI preferred for detailed designs. Use vector formats like AI, EPS, or PDF for logos and CMYK colour profiles, including Pantone references, to ensure consistency. Allow for bleed and consider long-run repeats for seamless designs.
Practical Tips
- Position carpet runners where traffic naturally slows for maximum visibility.
- Ensure high contrast between text and background for readability.
- Maintain carpet runners with regular vacuuming and spot cleaning.
