2 Rivermeade Design & Rivermeade Signs Rivermeade Design is a wayfinding and sign design consultancy. It is a trading division of Rivermeade Signs Limited a private limited company registered in the UK.

Our website contains images and details of many recent projects. For many years Rivermeade Signs has been involved in wayfinding and sign design consultancy originally only for hotels but more recently also for architectural projects.the creation of Rivermeade Design as a separate trading division of Rivermeade Signs recognises the increasing importance of our consultancy work. We believe that the close relationship between the consultancy and manufacturing parts of our business benefits our consultancy clients. It enables us to stay firmly grounded in manufacturing reality we will not propose sign designs that cannot be made and it also allows us to monitor costs and budget projections as a continuing part of the design process. When Rivermeade Design is employed as consultants we ask that Rivermeade Signs be included within the list of companies invited to tender for the manufacture and installation of the sign package. Rivermeade Design provides wayfinding and sign design consultancy services to many leading hotel operators, architects, interior designers and procurement companies. Recent consultancy projects within the international hotel sector include: Kempinski Gold Coast Hotel Accra for Zachem Construction Shire Hotels external rebranding project Shahdag Resort Complex Azerbaijan for Zoo Communication Al Houara Resort Complex Morocco for WATG Alfonso XIII Hotel Seville for Starwood Hyatt Regency Churchill Hotel London for Hyatt External rebranding at Sheraton Heathrow and Sheraton Skyline for Starwood Hilton Hotels: Cape Sierra, Terminal 5, Wembley, Liverpool, Reading & Manchester Westin Golf Resort & Spa Abu Dhabi for TDIC Waldorf Astoria Syon Park for the Ability Group Park Hyatt Abu Dhabi Al Rasheed Hotel Bagdhad for Harlow International Buccament Bay Hotel & Resort St. Vincent for Harlequin Hotels
