In addition to our comprehensive signage solutions for the hospitality and leisure industry, Wise Studios understands the specific requirements for internal hotel signs and the importance of creating captivating environments in bars and restaurants. We recognise that internal signage needs to be both subtle and visible when needed, seamlessly blending into the surroundings and providing necessary information without overwhelming the guest experience. Moreover, we know that bars and restaurants require visually stunning wall murals and signs that add drama, atmosphere, and that extra touch of allure, enticing guests to stay a little longer and enjoy their time to the fullest.

Subtle Yet Visible Internal Hotel Signage: Hidden in Plain Sight

Internal hotel signs serve a practical purpose by providing guidance, information, and directions to guests. However, we understand the need for these signs to be subtle and seamlessly integrated into the hotel's interior design. At Wise Studios, we take a thoughtful approach to internal hotel signage, ensuring that it blends harmoniously with the surroundings. Our designers and craftsmen work diligently to create signs that are hidden in plain sight, utilising high-quality materials, refined typography, and discreet placement to ensure that the signs are easily visible when needed without detracting from the overall aesthetic appeal of the hotel.

Captivating Wall Murals and Signs: Adding Drama and Atmosphere

Bars and restaurants are more than just places to eat and drink; they are destinations for memorable experiences. Wise Studios recognises the power of visually stunning wall murals and signs in creating a captivating atmosphere that entices guests to linger and indulge in the ambiance. We collaborate closely with establishments in the hospitality and leisure industry to design and manufacture breathtaking wall murals and signs that add drama, create a unique identity, and enhance the overall guest experience. Whether it's a large-scale mural depicting a mesmerising landscape, custom-designed signage showcasing the establishment's brand identity, or innovative installations that engage the senses, we can create the perfect visual elements that make guests want to stay for that extra drink or immerse themselves in the ambiance.

Hospital and Healthcare

Hospital and Healthcare

Clear signage from the car park to appointment rooms or emergency departments plays a vital role in hospitals and healthcare. Directional signage showing the way is essential for patients, outpatients, whanau, visitors and medical staff. It saves valuable time, improves the customer experience, frees up administration staff, and eases stress for those visiting a loved one. Through collaborating with project teams and architects we design, manufacture and install wayfinding systems that provide the key information needed for effortless navigation of large healthcare settings. We turn sterile spaces into pleasant environments with additions like wall art, vinyl graphics, window adornments or frosting that provide space separation and privacy. We can brighten up areas like children’s, maternity or cancer wards with signage and art that makes these areas feel more homely. With all our wayfinding designers and crafters under one roof, we are able to create solutions to meet any budget and brief. “The team at Wise Studios collaborated with our team to ensure that we had a consistent look with all of our new offices throughout New Zealand. Their project management and professionalism provided an excellent result.” Irene Bates, EAP Services Ltd
