CITY OF STIRLING - PARKS & RESERVES SIGNAGE - CASE STUDY

5/8/2019

0 Comments

 
Signs & Lines have been working with City of Stirling since 2011. The City has 1,780 hectares of open space for reserves, parks, natural conservation areas and special purpose lands, including over 600 hectares of natural bushland, 26 wetland sites and 6.5 kilometres of coastal dunes and beaches. All these areas require effective signage and this is where we come in...
 
The City's sign strategy for its Parks and Reserves follows a hierarchy of signs of monolith and directional format in varying size, construction and styling. Read our Case Study below that outlines our signage projects.

The design rationale caters for single or double sided plinths or monoliths, with high quality 2 pac painted header section, and a deliberately rusted lower section known as corten. The reverse side of the sign is either painted, or finished in just corten to provide a more rustic, natural effect that blends into the environment and is a low maintenance finish. Corten steel is blessed with atmospheric corrosion resistance which enables it to be used in a paint-less form for many structural/architectural ways.

GREENWOOD'S MAMMOTH DIGITAL BILLBOARD SIGN

11/3/2019

3 Comments

 
Picture
​The installation of the new APN Greenwood digital pylon on the Mitchell Freeway in December 2018 saw the culmination of over a year’s planning for this major WA project. Signs & Lines' digital division, Yap!digital, provided a turnkey solution for this project including the manufacture, traffic management, installation and commissioning of the digital component.

As the first of eight pylons planned by Main Roads along the Mitchell Freeway, this giant electronic billboard is positioned in the most optimal location for maximum exposure for car traffic heading into Perth city.

Main Roads generate outdoor advertising revenue from the dynamic digital creative, which is in turn is used to fund road projects and upgrades.

​Follow the link to read our Case Study on this iconic project.

Signs & Lines and the Yap!digital team were involved from the outset with design and methodology for the build and install of the landmark pylon just after Greenwood Station heading southbound. The 12.5 metre wide sign face is positioned over 5 metres above ground level on a 9 metre header pole for maximum visibility to vehicle traffic. In total, the signboard offers 40 square meters of outdoor advertising brand awareness!
​
Manufacture of the steel structures involved structural and architectural drawings detailing how the Included in the specifications were details about surface treatment, camera support, fall arrest line inside vertical ladder access and aluminium ladder inside sign to access cabinets.

Careful planning of the installation of the pole and header sections was required to minimise disruption to the Mitchell Freeway traffic. Despite the scale of the sign, all elements were pre-made in house and took only 1 day to install. No lanes of the Freeway needed be closed, just the emergency lane had to be closed with bump trucks.

​Whether you need inspiration, design assistance or help managing a new wayfinding signage project, the team at Signs & Lines and Yap!digital can take your signage from drab to fab! Our service includes creating a strategy and integrated plan that will boost brand awareness and enhance your professional image.

HOTEL SIGNAGE SHINES AT THE INGOT HOTEL

11/3/2019

0 Comments

 
With tens of thousands of people coming and going throughout hotels every year, what are the key ingredients to your patrons enjoying the hotel and the hotel engaging with them at the same time? One of the answers to this is wayfinding signage.

When guests are unfamiliar with the hotel space it’s essential that the signage provided is clear and helpful. Our recent works at the Ingot Hotel on Perth's busy airport/city corridor on the Great Eastern Highway, allowed us to demonstrate our expertise in this hospitality environment.​
For Ingot Hotel the signage suite included the following types of signage:

  • Main building sign – the main logo ID for the hotel;
  • Welcome pylon signage – in reception and parking areas;
  • Illuminated bulkhead signage – illuminated over main entrance & restaurant;
  • Internal – wall signage at reception, bars & restaurants and floor directories;
  • Directional room & door numbers – identifying each room, amenities or guest area;
  • Glazing decals – for glass areas with stencil cut out detail;
  • Statutory signage – compliance for fire, doors & braille amenities;
 
This list can be extensively added to through digital signage which offers guests interactive, touchscreen or display information relating to events, special offers, what’s on in Perth, news, weather and a range of other useful information.
