As we kickoff 2019, we reflect on the numerous times that we speak to business owners at the beginning of the year. They are usually looking to start the year off by achieving new business goals for their company that include their business branding, signage, or new locations. In many cases this involves creating new looks for their brand, new wayfinding signage, or even just getting quotes for potential projects during the new year. So, we thought we would compile a list of 5 ways for any of our clients to freshen up the look of their business without significant investments. 1) Put that Paint to Work Simply putting on a fresh coat of interior paint can transform your office space for both customers and employees. New paint can enhance the color of your existing interior sign and give your office a polished look. If you have wall graphics that […]

In the middle of the Atlanta Historic District, The Healey Building has been a fixture since 1913. This property has undergone a few renovations during its more than a century existence but it is most known as the towering high-rise with old-world character and grand windows. The building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and underwent renovations in 2005 to move from commercial space to condominiums. Every inch of the building speaks to class and luxury. Most recently, the building has undergone another renovation to the 50,000 SF of commercial space at the base of the tower. The shift of focus to the commercial space created a need for new signage and branding for the property. Equitable Management, who represents the property, contacted Pinnacle Custom Signs in July of 2018 to assist with their new signage needs. They were looking for a vendor who could fabricate and […]

As the owner of a company, you need to take a few minutes to learn the reasoning and requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Understanding ADA signs helps your business to meet the rules and avoid costly fines or possible lawsuits for non-compliance. Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) The ADA act prohibits discrimination and guarantees that people with disabilities have the same opportunities as everyone else to participate in the mainstream of American life — to enjoy employment opportunities, to purchase goods and services. So, what does that have to do with signs?  The ADA also regulates signs to ensure that Americans with disabilities can access and navigate in public buildings.  It covers things like readability for both those who can see and not see.  For instance, ADA signage rules require that characters have high contrast, tactile letters and braille. How that affects our clients Although there are […]

Seasons come, and seasons go, but it sure felt like it took forever to finally see Summer make its way out of the picture this year. So, in honor and celebration of the changing of the seasons – here are the ten SIGNS that fall is finally here: 1. The Word “Pumpkin” From the announcement that the Pumpkins Spice Latte, it seems that everything these days contains the word pumpkin.  This year we have seen pumpkin spice wings, pumpkin spice ice cream, and even pumpkin spice margaritas. The jury is out on whether this is good or bad, but it is definitely a sign of the season. 2. College Colors on Everything It’s that time of the year when kick-offs become sacred, traditions become a necessity, and occasionally controversy boil over into everyday life.  It is rampant across the country.  From feuding neighbors to weekend tailgates, one of the biggest […]
