Lobby wayfinding system for residential investment Noho

The Katowice-based NOHO Investment at Nadgórników 14 consists of two modern buildings offering almost three hundred flats. It is a place where art meets design, modernity meets classic, aesthetics meets functionality. 

 

NOHO Investment is a nationwide, Polish developer of the premium segment. The buildings created with their participation are places offering the highest quality, functional and timeless in terms of architecture, design and attention to detail. The N14 investment was no different. It is a venue offering, among other things, unique common areas such as a club room, coworking with a reading room, games room, cinema room, fitness room, sauna and much more. Elegant, toned and detail-focused wayfinding was required for all these structures. Thanks to its fusion with the interior architecture & informative function, it is a perfect extension of the buildings’ design.

 

To match the elegant, yet minimalistic design of the interiors, we decided to choose Radikal font as a basis of our signage project. Radikal by Nootype is a geometric font dedicated to the research of purity. It is characterised by very interesting details. The sharp ends of the letters and the characteristic cut of their ‘bellies’ refer to the shapes present in the architecture of both buildings. The system uses them in a very interesting three-dimensional form (some of them are high-quality 3D prints). An extensive system of pictograms was also created based on Radikal’s glyphs. Thanks to this approach, the icons are proportional and consistent with the rest of the wayfinding system.
