Signage development
Following workshops with the design team and the portal fabricators, we developed a specification that really pushed current fabrication methods, to create a rimless letter form with edge-to-edge illumination. The characters stand at 2.4 metres tall and span over 17m wide with illumination controlled via the building’s Simmtronic control system.
We dealt with all the coordination, health and safety, structural design and to ensure the lettering met expectations, provided a full-size illuminated prototype, elevated at 10m to reflect the final look and feel of the product. The sampling process demonstrated that the design was feasible and that it integrated well with the other architectural elements.
