Unique Restaurant Signs and Graphics for A Unique Restaurant

What makes a restaurant unique? What if I told you there was a restaurant where you could get some of the best food and beverages in town and adopt a pet all in one trip! Sounds like fun right? Well the place to go is Bark A Rescue Pub. Bark in partnership with the Spokane Humane Society have created that place. Bark owners Josh Wade & Katie Holmes contacted us early on in the project to help them create the unique signage needed to create a unique ambiance for such a unique restaurant. The project included a wide variety of indoor and outdoor signs. It also incorporated a wide variety of environmental elements to create unique ambiance the owners desired.

Environmental Graphics

We created seamless wall logo wrap incorporating their iconic logo for sections of the interior of Bark, A Rescue Pub. These graphics can be installed on a variety of different walls and locations. We worked closely with existing branding to ensure all colors matched precisely as needed.

We created an acrylic dimensional fire-hydrant which was cut on our CNC machine. This was installed onto the customer’s wall with studs and spacers.

At the main entrance we added logos to the front doors and on the patio entrance we created and installed a stud-mounted white acrylic logo which hangs over the side entrance to the restaurant. This was made on our CNC
machine utilizing 1/2″ white acrylic. We are able to install signage even onto uneven surfaces such as brick and stone walls!

Design Renderings

We created a large steel pylon sign to attract attention from the main road near the restaurant. We created realistic concept renders to help visualize what the completed sign would look like. We worked with the city of Spokane to ensure all requirements were fulfilled prior to finalizing the sign. We used plot-cut reflective vinyl on the steel arches to help visibility of the logo – even at night.

Mesh Stage Banners at the Riverfront Park Pavilion

Large Mesh Banners for Concert stage at Spokane Riverfront Park Pavilion, mesh stage banners

Mesh stage banners at the Riverfront Park Pavilion add world class effects to this entertainment venue. Recently, we’ve seen restoration and re-imagining happening at Riverfront Park. The Pavilion underwent a massive renovation. It was originally designed for Expo ‘74, the first environmentally themed world’s fair. After the fair, it was an open air structure that housed kiddie rides in the summer and a skating rink in the winter. Now the space has been re imagined and brought back to its former glory.  

The new covering features 479 programmable illumination blades that light up the structure and are capable of performing dazzling light displays.  From the shaded grassy area and amphitheater seating to the panoramic views, everything was thought out to be inviting and accessible to the community. We were able to help in the redesign process by creating giant mesh stage banners that frame the stage.

Mesh banners are wind resistant and durable for outdoor use. The tiny perforations in the material allow air flow so gusts of wind won’t send these giant banners flying during an event. Best of all, full color artwork is still vibrant. The large logo artwork on these stage banners are beautiful and crisp. They offer an impressive welcome to locals and visitors alike.

Lighted Lobby Signs Add Professionalism

lighted lobby signs spokaneA lighted lobby sign adds professionalism to any business or office. We recently created this lighted lobby sign for Fellowship Financial Planning in Spokane.  An external lighting source illuminates and casts dramatic shadows to make this wall display really stand out.  The dimensional letters and logo mounted to a wood-clad wall look amazing with the additional lighting.

There are many ways to add lighting. External lighting, halo lit signs, and backlit signs are a few options.  External lighting uses an outside source to shine light on a sign or display. Halo lighting creates a glow or halo effect against the wall or backing that the sign is mounted to. Backlighting is just like it sounds –the light source is behind the sign. The sign material, usually acrylic or Lexan, filters light through the printed graphics to achieve an even glow. Though you often see backlit signs outside, we’ve created indoor backlit signs for retail, airports, sports arenas and casino locations.

Lighted signs are eye-catching, whether indoors or out. Millie McCoy at Balance Eternelle noted, “I just want to say that I love the backlit sign and I have been getting walk-ins ever since it went up.”

What does your dimensional lobby sign convey to your clients and prospects visiting your office? We can help with design, fabrication and installation to create the perfect first impression.

FlexiBRITE LED Tubing vs Neon

surf shack burgers flexibrite LED sign looks like neon signIs that Neon? No, it’s FlexiBRITE LED tubing! Neon signs have long been used to attract customers and set businesses apart. FlexiBRITE LED Tubing signs offer the same vibrant lighting as neon in a variety of colors, and best of all, it costs much less to operate than traditional neon. 

Most people know LED lights boast numerous benefits. For example, LED lights require less energy to create a brighter image. They can even be seen in daylight, whereas neon would fade into the light.  LED lights also have a longer lifespan, lasting 25 times longer than incandescent lights and thousands of hours longer than neon.

FlexiBRITE LED Tubing offers the added bonus of flexibility in its LED lighting.  The bendable tubing is durable, and can be molded to create patterns, contours or lettering.  It would be great as a border or accent stripe, but the flexibility allows it to easily transform into shapes and fonts as well. In addition, FlexiBRITE tubing offers a streamlined appearance and a lightweight display that is easier to maintain and tailor to your indoor or outdoor space.

Speaking of outdoor, LED is UV stable and won’t fade over time. It is waterproof so you can install outdoors even without a protective awning. Surf Shack Burgers used the FlexiBRITE LED tubing to create their eye-catching storefront sign. It’s a throwback look that looks amazing and will last many years.

we used flexible LED tubing to make this custom LED signTo sum up, Flexibrite LED tubing is:

  • Less expensive to operate than neon
  • Easy to install and maintain
  • Longer lasting
  • Weatherproof and durable
  • UV stable
  • Highly flexible and customizable
  • Vibrant color, day and night

Looking for a more efficient and effective way to get the neon look for your restaurant or business? We can help with that!

Custom Standee Cut Outs

custom standee cut outs for Quinn special eventWe had a great time celebrating 80/50 with QUINN last month. It was the Agency’s 50th anniversary and the founder Jerry Quinn’s 80th birthday. The program was excellent. It was awesome to see and hear their story! Our small part was producing some standees for stage props and photos.

Standees are a fun addition to any event, be it a birthday celebration, fundraiser, or promotional event.  You can use custom standees as photo props alongside a custom paparazzi photo backdrop, or as decoration for your special event.  They are also great in storefronts or at trade shows to promote your brand or products.

Materials for Printing Standees

Our custom standee cut outs are made from durable materials like corrugated plastic, polystyrene, or gatorplast.  Corrugated plastic is rigid, water-resistant, and affordable, so producing several standees is easy on the budget. Polystyrene offers a smooth, matte surface for printing, and will hold up for several years. It’s flexible and lightweight, yet rigid, so it’s great for POP standees. Gatorplast is a lightweight polystyrene foam board. Rigid gator does not dent easily, and is great for shape cut signs.  

All standees are easy to move and set up in a variety of ways and can be reused for multiple events.  Standees are weather resistant for outdoor events. In addition, we can create layered images for a three dimensional look.

Use standee cut outs for:

  • Celebrations
  • Anniversaries
  • Promotional Events
  • Fundraisers
  • Graduations
  • Trade shows
  • Advertising in stores, and more!

Shape cut out standees are a fun way to personalize your event.  Let us help you create a custom life sized (or larger than life!) standee cut out.  Signs for Success is a locally owned family business in Spokane, and we strive for excellent customer service, perfect color, and quick turnaround on every project.

Large Promotional Banners to Promote Your Venue!

Ice ribbon riverfront park spokane large promotional banner, custom bannerThe Ice Ribbon at Riverfront Park Spokane is a favorite winter destination. With a 650-foot long pathway with curves and ups and downs, the Ice Ribbon offers a fun and unique ice skating experience.

Large promotional banners are a great way to advertise an event or celebrate a season.  Not only are they outdoor durable and cost effective, but they are also eye catching and create awareness, especially when placed in a busy city center.

Quick Turnaround and In-house Design and Printing

Also in stock we carry heavy duty 18oz material, blackout vinyl for double sided banners, and mesh banner material for high wind situations. Vinyl banner edges are finished by welding, rather than sewing. This gives a stronger edge and a streamlined look.

Custom Facility Signs for Avista’s Jimmy Dean Center

Illuminated channel letterset, custom channel letters for AvistaAvista Corp., the Spokane-based energy company, needed custom facility signs with consistent branding for their new maintenance and repair facility. Officially named the “Jimmy Dean Center,” it includes a 15,100 square foot maintenance building and adjacent compressed natural gas fueling station. The Jimmy Dean Center is named for a gas line worker who died while responding to an outage after hours in the winter of 1996.  

As with any large facility, signs are needed throughout to inform and direct. New signs at the Jimmy Dean Center include:

  1. An Acrylic Lobby Sign
  2. Illuminated Channel Letterset for the outside of the building
  3. Large Etchmark letter “G” on entry glass
  4. Outdoor Aluminum and Acrylic Facility Entrance Sign
  5. Directional Signs, and
  6. A Series of Indoor Wall Murals

  1. The logo lobby sign was created with three different layers on cut acrylic. The first surface is white cut vinyl with the Avista logo. The second surface is etchmark vinyl gives the look of frosted glass, custom facility signsEtchmark vinyl, a translucent film that gives the look of “etched” or frosted glass. Finally, the Etchmark vinyl is backed with a medium gray film.  “Two second surface layers gives it a unique aesthetic,” Signs for Success’ Bryce Morrison said. The dimensional look is enhanced with ¾-inch brushed silver standoffs.

2. On the outside of the building, you are greeted by a custom illuminated channel letterset. By adding blue vinyl and reverse weeding to create the white negative space, we were able to perfectly match their logo.

The graphics cover several sections of glass over approximately 11 square feet.  Avery Etchmark film adds a little privacy and the upscale look of sandblasted glass.

4. The Facility Entrance Sign uses an aluminum cabinet painted blue to match Avista’s branding. “Jimmy Dean Center” is cut from the aluminum face, with half inch white acrylic letters pushed through. The acrylic is illuminated, and creates an overall simple and modern entrance sign.

Each sign is printed on ACM (Aluminum Composite Material) and laminated for added durability.  They are a combination of single and double sided signs, either 24” square or 18” square, and all county compliant.

6. Finally, a series of wall murals adds interest to the interior of the facility.  We installed over 100 linear feet of historical Avista photos and local history. A wall mural “offers great interior graphic options, brings the building’s character to life, and unifies all spaces,” Bryce explained.

We did similar projects at Mann-Grandstaff VA Medical Center and True Hope Church. Need custom signs with consistent branding? How about ADA signs, directional signs, or building signs?

Custom Outdoor Signs Complement New Connections Garden

multidimensional monument sign for Connections Garden in Spokane's Riverfront Park, custom outdoor signsWe were honored to take part in the new Connections Garden in the heart of Spokane.  The Connections Garden is a project funded by the Sister Cities Association of Spokane. Their goal is to showcase

Custom Outdoor Sign - Basalt, steel, acrylic and wood

 Spokane’s sister cities while attracting new and repeat visitors to the historic Riverfront park. 

The new garden provides a space to honor and celebrate the importance of Spokane’s Sister Cities through nature and art. It is placed at the site of the former Japanese Pavilion at the Expo ’74 World’s Fair.  The garden features sculptures from partnerships with Limerick, Ireland; Nishinomiya, Japan; and Spokane. Plans are underway for art from partner cities in Jilin, China; Jecheon, South Korea; and Cagli, Italy.

In addition to one of a kind art pieces placed throughout the garden, custom signs made from natural materials help guide you through the garden.  Using a combination of stone, steel, wood, acrylic and ACM (aluminum composite material), the signs add to the artistry of the area.

The custom outdoor signs are meant to inform and direct without taking anything away from the natural scenery, sculptures, and symbolism.  For example, the blue-green curved pathways symbolize the connections of the Sister Cities’ rivers to the oceans of the world.  To continue the theme, blue and green curved acrylic pieces adorn the signs along the path. The multidimensional signs are mounted to stone monuments.

All of the materials chosen are also outdoor durable and will look great for many years to come.  Do you need unique custom designed signs for an outdoor space? We can help with that!
