A Special Project with Think Box Media
- Exciting Collaboration: SignWorks was thrilled to work with Think Box Media once again, this time on a project in Berkeley for their client, Outfront. The goal was to install an illuminated interior logo lobby sign that would grab attention and elevate the look of the space.
- A Small Hiccup: Although the transformer for the sign wasn’t shipped with the initial order, our installer made a second trip to ensure everything was installed correctly. In the end, the sign was up and running without any issues, and the client was very happy with the result!
Why Illuminated Lobby Signs?
Eye-Catching and Professional
- Stand Out: Illuminated lobby signs do more than just display a company’s logo. They create an upscale, modern, and professional look that catches the eye of anyone walking into the space.
- First Impressions Matter: The lobby is the first place clients and visitors see when they walk into a business. A well-designed, lit sign can make that first impression memorable and give off a sense of professionalism and success.
Branding with Style
- Brighter Branding: These signs literally make your brand shine! The illumination makes the logo visible from across the room, even in dim lighting, drawing attention to your company’s name.
- Upscale Feel: An illuminated sign gives the impression that your business is forward-thinking, modern, and takes its branding seriously.
The Installation Process
Planning and Precision
- Getting It Right: Installing an illuminated sign requires careful planning. The design needs to be precise, and the installation process needs to ensure that the lighting elements are connected and working properly.
- Attention to Detail: At SignWorks, we make sure that every detail, from the placement of the sign to the wiring of the lights, is perfect. This guarantees that the sign not only looks great but also works flawlessly.
Value as a Marketing Tool
Visibility and Recognition
- Increased Visibility: A well-lit sign helps increase the visibility of your brand, especially in areas where lighting may be low. Even when the lights are dim, an illuminated sign ensures that your brand remains front and center.
- Brand Recognition: Repeated exposure to your brand in a professional setting builds recognition. The more people see your illuminated logo, the more likely they are to remember it.
Drawing Attention
- Grabbing Attention: Whether it’s for a corporate office, a retail space, or a lobby, illuminated signs are eye-catching and make people stop and take notice. This is especially valuable in busy environments where standing out is important.
- Example: Think about walking into an office building and seeing a sleek, glowing sign with a company’s logo—your eyes are naturally drawn to it, and it leaves a lasting impression.
