Location, Branding & Terminal Archetypes

In Location Settings (/admin/location-settings), you configure both your branch’s operational metadata and the visual identity (Branding & Theme) applied across every Kiosk, Service Desk, TV Display, and Mobile Ticket at that location.

1. Location Profile & Timezone

  • Location Name & Address: Branch name, street address, postal code, city, and country.
  • Timezone (TimeZone): (e.g., Europe/Berlin, America/New_York, Europe/London). Setting the accurate local timezone ensures your Weekly Operating Hours and Automated Daily Queue Resets fire at the exact local time.

2. Brand Color

Pick your primary Brand Color using the visual swatch picker or by entering an exact Hex code (e.g., #55868C).

  • EntraLane automatically computes WCAG-compliant foreground contrast colors and tonal container tokens from your brand hex.
  • Changes broadcast immediately over SignalR to all connected terminals without requiring a page reload.

3. The 8 Terminal Design Archetypes

Every physical space has its own architectural personality. EntraLane includes 8 curated Terminal UI Design Archetypes that transform typography weights, corner radii, surface contrast, and card geometry across your kiosks and TV displays:

1. EntraLane (Editorial Tonal — Default)

Warm Ivory (#F5F2E8) in light mode and Obsidian Slate (#111315) in dark mode, pairing Plus Jakarta Sans typography with borderless tonal layering.

2. Swiss Modern

Uncompromising grid precision, razor-sharp typographic hierarchy, and maximum contrast — ideal for municipal offices, hospitals, and transit hubs.

3. Scandinavian

Airy, daylight-first surfaces with soft corner radii and calm organic tones tailored for clinics, pharmacies, and wellness centers.

4. Japandi

Minimalist tranquility combining warm stone and timber neutrals for boutiques, showrooms, and hospitality lounges.

5. Industrial

High-visibility technical numerals and rugged structural framing built for repair centers, hardware stores, logistics counters, and warehouses.

6. Soft Tech

Contemporary consumer-tech aesthetic with generous pill radii and subtle depth for electronics retailers, telecom stores, and modern service hubs.

7. Architectural Monochrome

Timeless grayscale palette for law firms, financial institutions, galleries, and corporate reception lobbies.

8. Neo-Brutalist

Bold 2px structural borders, crisp offset shadows, and expressive display typography for events, festivals, and pop-up retail.


4. Custom Logo Upload & Wordmark Detection

Upload your company logo in PNG, SVG, WebP, or JPG format (up to 5 MB).

  • Automatic Wordmark Aspect Ratio Detection: When you upload an image, EntraLane automatically measures its width-to-height aspect ratio. If the image is wide (≥ 1.8 : 1), EntraLane automatically enables the “Logo includes company name (Wordmark)” toggle.
  • How It Affects the Terminal Toolbar:
    • Icon / Emblem Logo (Square or Round): Renders your logo mark alongside the text title of your Location or Waiting Area.
    • Wordmark Logo (Wide): Renders your full wordmark at a wider aspect ratio and hides the redundant text title next to it so your brand name isn’t duplicated.
  • Live Toolbar Preview: Preview exactly how your logo and title combination will look on terminal screens right inside the Location Settings page before saving.
