Let the sign extend the walk.
Maps and planting information.
In a park or garden, a QR can add planting information or a route to a sign. Clearly identify the location and keep wayfinding instructions on the ground.

A well-prepared project.
Link each sign to its specific content
Use a page identifying the planting, area or route stop. Check the text with the person maintaining the content. A page that keeps its address can change with the seasons while the printed sign stays in place.
Create a webpage QRValidate the outdoor sign
Keep the four-module clear margin and strong contrast. Test the material and its covering with the shade, sun and reflections found on site. Place the QR where visitors can stop without blocking the path or entering a planted area.
Prepare the QR for printing
The final details
Before sharing the display.
A QR code decoded on screen is a first check. Also verify the destination and the material actually used.
- Keep the main map and safety instructions visible without a connection.
- Check mobile coverage at the sign.
- Check signs after severe weather and route changes.
Good to know
Before getting started.
Does seasonal content need a new QR?
Not if you update the page at the same address. If the encoded address changes, replace the QR on the sign.
