Located at 1200 East California Boulevard in Pasadena, the California Institute of Technology, also known affectionately as CalTech, serves a student body that specializes in the exploration of science and engineering related subjects. When this school needed a lobby sign that would perfectly embody its branding message, the administration of the procurement department contacted the experts at Superior Signs and Graphics.
This lobby sign immediately catches the eye!
Our graphic artists discussed the design of the signage with the procurement department’s representatives. Since the lobby wall entrance was recently remodeled, the new sign would become part of the location’s overall atmosphere. Textured wall panels beautify the space, which could enhance the look of the finished product. We were initially asked if there was a budget-friendly way to design and manufacture a backlit aluminum sign that we would then install with spacers on a panel.
While this was not possible at the proposed budget, we had a much more affordable option for the school. The use of half-inch-thick PVC with a brushed metal face and silver-painted sides creates the illusion of metal usage without the steep price tag. Rather than installing a light source, we discovered that it would be far more economical for the school to use ceiling-mounted accent lighting. The new reception area sign now beautifies the space while delivering the school’s essential branding message with chic and sophistication.
The logo as a focal point makes this sign pop!
Money-saving sign design tips are plentiful. Although we routinely work with clients who do not bat an eye at commissioning inch-thick metal signs manufactured from bronze or brass, other companies work within tight budgetary constraints. Here are some workarounds that save money and have your lobby look like a million bucks.
