Public and Commercial

We make signs for a wide variety of public and commercial projects from offices, banks and public spaces to television studios and research laboratories. Recent projects include: Battersea Power Station, Bloomberg London, Apex House, The Hub, and Manchester Library & Town Hall.

Education

Our education signage work covers universities, colleges, schools and libraries throughout the UK. Recent projects include: London Business School, The Catalyst Staffordshire University, Royal Academy of Dance, University of Greenwich and University of Winchester.

Arts & Heritage

We have many years of experience working on museum signage and heritage signage such as historic buildings and arts venues. We know the details about the sensitivity of wall fixings and excavations. We can advise on what materials will be suitable and be approved by Historic England. Recent projects include: Stonehenge, Witley. Court, Castle Howard, Clivedon, Haddon Hall and Salisbury Cathedral.

Sports and Leisure

Sports venues have specific signage requirements. The signs must be vandal resistant and durable. Sports signage must also be designed at a scale that can be seen from a distance to assist the movement of large crowds. We have made complete sign schemes for 2012 London Olympic Stadium, Wimbledon AELTC, Emirates and Etihad Stadiums, The Oval, Twickenham, Sir Chris Hoy Velodrome and Oxford University Sports Centre.

Retail

An important change in the design of retail signage is the requirement that signs must be durable but easy to update. Recent advances in digital printing technology and printing materials have made this easier to achieve. Landmark projects for Rivermeade include the signing of Harrods, Sotheby's, Mailbox, the Bullring, Westgate, the Oracle and Coal Drops Yard in King’s Cross.

Residential

Buyers of luxury residential developments expect signs to match the standards found in an international 5* hotel. We have provided signs for many major developments including Chelsea Barracks, Battersea Power Station, Gasholders, Richmond Bridge, Knightsbridge Gate and Tapestry Building in King’s Cross.

Health

We design and make signs for hospitals, private clinics and surgeries. Recent health signage projects include: The Oak Cancer Centre, Anavo Group Care Homes, Fetal Medicine Research Institute and Schoen Clinic.

Hotels and resorts

Rivermeade has a long history of working in the hospitality market. We understand exactly what hotel signage is required to assist guests and staff and what needs to be provided to meet international safety codes and accessibility standards. Recent projects include: The Peninsula, The Beaumont, Art'otel Battersea Power Station, Corinthia, Adare Manor, L’Oscar, The Langham and Belmond Cadogan Hotel.

Museums and galleries

With years of experience in designing and manufacturing museum signage, Rivermeade has developed a deep understanding of what it takes to create signs that meet the unique needs of cultural institutions. Museum signage requires a balance of durability, clarity, and aesthetic appeal, as each piece not only guides visitors but also complements the surrounding exhibits and architecture. Over time, we’ve built strong expertise in choosing the right materials, finishes, and design techniques to ensure every sign is both visually engaging and long-lasting. This experience allows us to collaborate effectively with museum teams and designers, delivering signage solutions that enhance visitor experience while standing the test of time in high-traffic environments. Rivermeade has provided signage for some of the UK's most renowned museums and galleries, including the National Portrait Gallery, Victoria & Albert Museum, The Box, Science Museum, Natural History Museum, Wigmore Hall, and The Fitzwilliam Museum.

Safety

We deliver high-quality safety and wayfinding solutions that emphasise maximum visibility, resilience, and longevity. Every sign is produced to meet the highest standards, ensuring clear guidance and reliable performance in all conditions. Our commitment to quality means each solution is designed to withstand heavy use environments, providing dependable safety and wayfinding support where it’s needed most.
