Matching room signs for an engineering office

The challenge

A GTA engineering company wanted proper signs for the rooms in its building, including a clean room, a research lab and customer service. They had to carry the company logo and look like one matching set. Some doors still carried plain paper labels, like the one on the door next to the finished sign.

Our process

1. Designed one sign layout: a white plate with a raised border, the room name in raised navy letters, a red line under the name and the company logo in the corner.
2. Matched the lettering to the navy of the company's logo.
3. Kept the layout and colours the same for every sign and changed only the room name, so the signs read as one set.
4. Printed each sign in white, navy and red, with the lettering, line and logo raised above the plate.
5. A finished sign was fitted to the upper glass panel of an office door.

The result

The company received a matching set of room signs with lettering in the same navy as its logo, a raised border and a red line on every sign. The photos show one fitted to a glass office door. Because every sign shares one layout, new rooms can be added later by changing only the name.
