The Process
Exterior Building Signs
For this project, we were tasked with creating a non-illuminated exterior sign for a building that stands over 20 meters high and spans a large area. Given the size of the sign and the height of the installation, we initially proposed a design that included a back panel to secure all letters in place before lifting it to the installation point. However, this design was not approved by the landlord, who preferred not to have panels attached to the building’s exterior.
With this requirement, we needed to find a way to install each letter directly onto the building’s existing corrugated cladding. Since the surface was uneven, we used custom-sized spacers for each letter to ensure they aligned uniformly. Each part of each letter required different spacer lengths to create an even appearance across the corrugated surface.
To achieve this precision, we first created a large template with detailed markings indicating the exact positions for each letter and spacer. We temporarily affixed this template to the building in the correct position, labeled all drill points, and carefully drilled the necessary holes. Once the template was removed, we installed the spacers individually, ensuring they were properly aligned. Finally, we mounted each letter piece-by-piece until the entire sign was securely in place.
The custom spacers not only allowed for a secure installation but also provided a unique dimensional effect from ground level, giving the sign a striking visual impact.
Reception Sign
For the reception sign, we began by carefully measuring the wall and creating a detailed proof that previewed the logo’s appearance in its intended space. Once the client approved the design, we moved forward with fabrication, cutting each letter precisely on our CNC router. The letters were then coated with a satin-finish, white 2K paint to ensure a durable and refined look.
To create depth, we added standoffs to the back of each letter, providing a subtle separation from the wall. Using a printed template, we marked the exact placement for each letter and ensured perfect alignment. After securing the template, we drilled the necessary perforations and installed each letter and logo element one by one.
The result was a sleek, dimensional sign that beautifully enhances the reception area, combining durability with visual impact.
Totem Signs
For the totem sign, we constructed a durable aluminum frame with panels on both sides and reinforced legs designed for secure installation. To ensure longevity and a high-end appearance, we wrapped the sign in premium polymeric vinyl with a matte laminate, giving it an elegant, professional finish.
On installation day, we drilled two precise 80 cm holes at the designated location. We set the sign’s legs into these holes, aligning it perfectly, then poured concrete to secure the structure. The result is a well-branded, rock-solid totem sign that will stand strong for years to come.
Wall Graphics
For this project, we were tasked with designing a custom map of Dublin to wrap an entire wall in the canteen. The design process was intricate, involving several hours of tracing Dublin’s network of roads. The wide dimensions of the wall allowed us to incorporate the company’s logo on the right side, along with illustrations of Dublin’s most iconic buildings along the bottom.
The client was thrilled with the design and approved it immediately. We printed the final graphic on high-tack premium polymeric vinyl with a matte laminate for durability and an elegant finish. Installation went smoothly, and the result was outstanding. The wall graphic quickly became a conversation piece, sparking discussions as employees pointed out where they live and where they grew up, adding a warm, communal touch to the space.
