A Giant Out­door Sign for a Giant Slide

Iowa State Fair

This sign is big, bold, dou­ble-sided, and proud­ly hon­ors the Reichardt Fam­i­ly. An in-house design in col­lab­o­ra­tion with the Blue Rib­bon Foun­da­tion, this sign mea­sures near­ly 30’ wide, 5’4” tall, and 2’ deep. The alu­minum cab­i­net sign was fab­ri­cat­ed in two sec­tions for eas­i­er (and more cost-effi­cient) instal­la­tion due to the install loca­tion being 50’ in the air. Dig­i­tal­ly print­ed graph­ics on alu­minum for the back-side and the same graph­ics CNC-cut and illu­mi­nat­ed on the slide-fac­ing side. There will be no mis­tak­ing the loca­tion for any fair­go­ers of this his­toric slide.

Glass Build­ings Need Chan­nel Let­ter Sig­nage Too

Den­ver Health

Installing sig­nage on glass brings the sign pro­duc­tion and install plan to a whole new lev­el. Adding to that is the install loca­tion is 7 sto­ries high and there’s anoth­er logo that needs to be installed on brick. Chan­nel let­ter sig­nage like this takes great col­lab­o­ra­tion from all teams. This glass-mount­ed logo is 38 feet wide and required coor­di­na­tion with the GC to install knife plates between the win­dows dur­ing the build. The sign was then fab­ri­cat­ed with a tube struc­ture that could be sup­port­ed on these knife plates for a suc­cess­ful installation. 

Hear our sign expert, Justin Halver­son, explain how this was done and see all the sig­nage on the Den­ver Health cam­pus now.

Sim­ple Brand­ing Sig­nage Makes a Big Impact

Car­son Group

Seems sim­ple enough, a logo on your build­ing. But the com­bi­na­tion of the lines of light adds a new dimen­sion to a rather sim­ple sign con­cept. This 26-foot wide logo uses a dual film that allows it to illu­mi­nate white at night while it over­looks the inter­state in Oma­ha, Nebraska.

This sign is just one small part of this new head­quar­ters, learn more and see the cor­po­rate his­to­ry wall here.
