To make signage stand out in a crowded area, I’d use bold, contrasting colors, clear and concise text, and large fonts for easy readability. Including intuitive icons and strategic placement at eye level would also ensure visibility and quick comprehension.

Incorporating symbols or icons for universal understanding can enhance recognition. High-visibility materials, like reflective or illuminated elements, along with strategic placement at eye-level or overhead, would ensure the signage captures attention even in busy environments.
