Helping people find their way and read a space — room and door signage, wayfinding systems, and architectural signage that match the interior instead of fighting it.
From a single sit-stand desk to a fully integrated private office, the desk is personal infrastructure. We specify height-adjustable bases, executive casegoods, and reception stations — chosen as the best product for the job, not the cheapest base on the marketplace.
Questions, answered.
About Signage & Wayfinding
Why plan signage with the furniture and finishes?
Because signage that’s added last rarely matches the space. Planned alongside the interior, it uses the same palette and materials and reads as part of the design — and it actually helps people navigate a floor that changes.
How does signage keep up with a flexible, reconfigurable floor?
Changeable and reservable-room signage lets room names and assignments update as the floor shifts, so a space that moves stays easy to navigate.
Can signage carry our brand, not just directions?
Yes — lobby and feature signage is a branding surface. We coordinate it with the interior so wayfinding and identity work together.
Working with Applied Ergonomics
What types of projects does Applied Ergonomics work on?
We work on projects of all sizes, from single-office setups to multi-floor corporate buildouts. Our services span workspace strategy, interior design, furniture specification, procurement, project management, and installation across healthcare, education, corporate, industrial, and hospitality environments.
How does the consultation process work?
We start with a conversation to understand your goals, challenges, and timeline. From there we develop a tailored approach that may include space planning, product recommendations, and a detailed proposal. There’s no obligation, and we’re happy to answer questions at any stage.
Do you work with architects and interior designers?
Absolutely. We regularly partner with architects and interior designers as a technical and execution resource, translating design intent into specific, high-performing solutions.
What geographic areas do you serve?
We serve clients nationally. While we’re headquartered in the Chicago area, our project management and installation capabilities extend across the United States.
Do you support ongoing facility needs after a project is complete?
Yes. We remain a consistent point of contact beyond project closeout—handling warranty coordination, reconfigurations, internal moves, modular system relocation and reuse, redesigns, and more. Our goal is continuity, not re-procurement.
