airport sign
Gate direction indicator
Airport sign refers to the distinctive typography and wayfinding design found in airports—clean sans-serif lettering, pictograms, and directional arrows meant to guide travelers quickly across language barriers.
The term often describes this aesthetic when applied elsewhere: The new office has that airport sign vibe—all Helvetica and arrows.
