Case Study: Production & Signage Design

Work for Sunset Memorial, Run Digital, and Sign World

overview

Production design experience across memorials, commercial signage and dimensional displays, with a focus on precision, fabrication requirements and practical problem solving. Projects involved preparing production-ready artwork and coordinating with manufacturers, installers and vendors through final production.

  • Created production-ready artwork for sandblasting, laser engraving, layered signage, vinyl, glass and stencil-based fabrication, with careful control of size, layering and detail.
  • Coordinated with production teams, installers and vendors to confirm feasibility and maintain accuracy from digital artwork through final installation.

production-ready vector artwork

Using references and supplied imagery, custom vector illustrations are created and refined for sandblasting production. Each design balances meaningful, personalized details with the line widths, spacing and simplicity required for successful stencil production.

Extensive collaboration with the family helped ensure every detail reflected their vision. The front artwork was created as detailed vector work and prepared for multiple levels of sandblasting, requiring careful planning of depth, linework and production sequencing.

highfield dimensional signage

I developed the production plan for translating Highfield’s existing brand into dimensional signage using layered acrylic, brushed aluminum, vinyl and printed elements. Production considerations included applying matte vinyl with bleed to the routed “H” and hand-trimming it for a clean finished edge, while the horse detail was given a metal outline to protect the printed surface from chipping.

midpark directory signage

A new tenant directory was designed around a manufactured sign base, with fixed address elements and removable tenant panels to simplify future updates. Horizontal brushed aluminum was selected so vinyl could be removed with less risk of scratching the surface, making the system easier to maintain over time.
