SCOPE OF WORK: LOBBY SIGN AND INTERNALLY ILLUMINATED EXTERIOR SIGN FACE LIT LETTERS WITH HALO DIAMOND AND STARS
After working with Signature Inn’s corporate offices out of Denver, Colorado for six months we created signage that met their design criteria. The “Signature” portion of the sign needed to be installed on top of the sign design elements of one diamond and two stars. The lobby sign was made from 1/4" and 1/2" thick aluminum. The stars and diamond were mounted with 1/4" spacers and the “Signature” was mounted with 3/4" spacers. Designing and installing the lobby sign in this way gives it more of a three dimensional look. The exterior signage is designed in the same manner as the lobby sign. The diamond and stars are rear lit internally illuminated with a 1/8" thick white aluminum reflective surface. The “Signature” letters are internally illuminated face lit letters.
