Sign System Design for a creative, compliant and crafted result
Give us floor plans and a hint of a design direction — some space images and inspo – and we do the rest. The result is sign location plans, message schedules, and a full sign family that elegantly balances stunning design with checking all the boxes of local codes and federal laws.
Let's get started with renderings
Our expert experiential graphic designers dive in to provide full sign system renderings with sign types, finishes, and functionality all called out. These color drawings feature every sign type for now –and the future. It's the extended family of room IDs, directional signs and other sign types, with all code signage included. Want stunning branded signage for the lobby or reception, perhaps wall and window graphics? Great, we love creating those, too.
Everything in its place with location planning
Our experienced programming group assembles a full location plan. Based on floor plans submitted during the design process, our location plans detail the exact locations and appropriate sign types for your project. And don't worry, we take full responsibility for life safety, ADA and code signage thanks to our deep, specialized knowledge. TakeCharge, our digital platform makes it easy. Over time, expansions, updates and maintenance are simple and efficient, too, because the full system is readily accessible.
Proofing makes perfect
As a final step before production starts, our meticulous layout group assembles a full set of proofs within TakeCharge. It shows every sign with the actual copy laid out, including pictograms, evacuation maps, graphics, and more making approvals easy.

The End-to-end difference
By doing it all, we can do it all better. Faster and more cost efficiently. One point of contact from the start. Then when it's done, we offer top notch ownership support.
Design + engineering
Plan and design everything. Design and planning are everything. The approved look will be engineered for function and marry your story with the space. A project manager coordinates and communicates everything — from planning to problem solving — and keeps your best interest, time line and bottom line in mind.
Manufacturing
We do almost everything ourselves, because we can do it better. We enhance what already exists and create the products missing from the market, and we even take on sourcing. Materials and techniques assure aesthetic quality and long-term performance in equal measure.
Field services
From a clean slate to a smooth finish. Each space is carefully and thoughtfully prepared — and repaired — and every sign is identified and confirmed. Installation is handled exclusively by vetted crews we’ve carefully trained and certified in the Takeform method.
Ownership services
Even after it’s done, we’re not done. A rigorously documented complete sign system manual includes renderings, drawings, location plans and message schedules. Insert templates help keep your sign system up to date. Our ownership support program and all-inclusive 5-Year Guarantee — good for all parts, all labor — is unrivaled in the industry.
