Colorado IKEA Sign Gains Local Applause The Highland Ranch (CO) Herald reported that trendy furniture purveyor Ikea stirred debate with its 92-ft.-tall sign that will identify its 415,000-sq.-ft. Centennial, CO, store that’s slated to open this fall. Centennial’s mayor, Cathy Noon, said, “I believe that sign is green[backs] for the south metro [Denver] area, and for the state of Colorado. It won’t just be our citizens coming to Ikea. [it will draw] customers from Wyoming and Kansas will be driving here … and staying in hotels.” She said the city’s ordinance prescribes specific sign guidelines for retailers with more than 225,000 sq. ft. of space. They’re granted exemptions that allow signs commensurate with their facilities’ large footprints. The Herald reported that a Facebook page, devoted to advocates of reducing the sign’s permissible size, attracted only eight fans.

Fueling the Madness
PA Borough Relaxes Sign Code On March 29, the Hamburg (PA) Borough Council voted unanimously to enact an ordinance that would allow backlit and internally lit signs in two Hamburg districts: on Third and Fourth Sts. between Franklin and Maple Sts., and on State St. from Franklin to the Schuylkill River bridge. Code-enforcement officer John J. Leonforte said the current ordinance was too restrictive and unfair to businesses.

Surf Board Bbi Display Systems (Malibu, CA), which holds the patent and manages global distribution for an inflatable-sign system that’s installed over bodies of water, reached an agreement with Concepción, Chile-based Grupo Big, an out-of-home marketing firm that serves South America. Bbi produced a 36-ft.-tall, floating billboard (installed in Pucon Town, Chile’s Villarica Lake) to promote Entel, a regional telecommunications conglomerate. A small boat pulled the billboard near the beachline. Concurrently, another 24 x 14-ft. bbi inflatable that promoted Movistar, a division of Telefonica, a Spanishbased, international phone-service provider, was pulled along the coast in Salina, Ecuador, a tourism mecca near the Galapagos Islands. According to bbi, it now operates its display systems in 60 countries.

Anosognosia Russian proverb: It’s good to know the truth, but healthier, at times, to live the lie.
W riter Errol Morris, in a June, 2010 New York Times column, described a person with limited thinking as “Anosognosic.” Morris wrote of McArthur Wheeler, whom he believed suffered from sundry “Anosognosia” symptoms because Wheeler, who robbed a Pittsburgharea bank in broad daylight, was videotaped barefaced by security cameras and, within hours, identified and arrested. Precisely, “Anosognosia” describes a person’s failure to recognize a personal medical condition, even though the condition may be patently obvious to others. The word usually applies to people who are unaware of a schizophrenia or bipolar disorder, but you can also loosely apply the word to describe people unaffected
by their own bothersome traits. Like teenagers who persistently jiggle their knees. Or, unintelligent people who think they’re intelligent. Unintelligent and easily identified Wheeler was the size of a Smart car – 5 ft. 6 in. tall at 270 lbs. Morris’ Anosognosia perspective came through Pittsburgh Post-Gazette journalist Michael Al Fuoco who, just after the arrest, reported, “... When arrested, Wheeler was completely disbelieving. ‘But I wore the juice,’ he said. Apparently, he [Wheeler] was under the deeply misguided impression that rubbing one’s face with lemon juice rendered him invisible to video cameras.” Cornell University social psychology professor David Dunning, upon reading of Wheeler’s misad-
Adobe Illustrator’s Align and Distribute Tools By Theresa Jackson
Adobe Illustrator’s Align tool quickly and accurately way aligns and distributes objects in your layout. The easiest access is via the workspace Control Bar (across the top). Turn this on at Window>Control (the bar’s options change with the active tool). Select one or more objects in your layout, and the Align tools will display in the Control Bar. Click on the first icon for Artboard, Selection or Key object options. The next six icons align objects, and the last six icons distribute them. Another access method is via the Align Panel (Window>Align). The Align Panel provides access to Distribute Spacing (see Part 3). Part 1 Align or Distribute Objects Relative To The Artboard Use Align-to-Artboard to align objects relative to the artboard. Center to Artboard works great when the artboard dimensions match the final print dimensions. Try this: Choose the Align-to-Artboard option, and select one or more objects. Click the Horizontal Align Center (second icon from the left) to center objects vertically. Click the Vertical Align Center (fifth icon from left) to center objects horizontally. 12 SIGNS OF THE TIMES / JUNE 2011
venture, quipped, “If Wheeler was too stupid to be a bank robber, perhaps he was also too stupid to know that he was too stupid to be a bank robber.” Dunning and Cornell graduate student Justin Kruger soon published a related research paper: “Unskilled and unaware of it: How difficulties of recognizing one’s own incompetence lead to inflated self-assessments.” In varying degrees, the Anosognosia trait lives in all of us. It appears to blossom in government. For example, on April 21, the U.S. national debt was more than $14 trillion. Your share, mine – everyone’s – was $47,134. At that time, China owned $1,154.7 billion of our debt; Japan owned $885.9 billion, and the U.K. owned $278.4 billion. Other debt
You can center a collection of objects – a row of logos that need the center position on a layout, for example – by grouping them first. Select the logos and go to Object>Group (the Align tool treats grouped objects as one) and then use the Align-to-Artboard tool to center the grouped logo on your layout. The remaining Alignment options relocate objects to the artboard’s edge. Align-to-Artboard, Distribute Objects will cause selected objects to distribute evenly across the artboard (edge to edge), vertically or horizontally. The extreme, left-hand item will align to the artboard’s left edge, and the extreme, right-hand will align to the right edge; the remaining objects will distribute equally between the two. Part 2 Align or Distribute Objects Relative to the Selection Align-to-Selection aligns or distributes selected objects relative to their bounding box. Try this: Choose the Align-to-Selection and select two or more artboard objects. Choosing the first icon will vertically align all selected objects to the extreme, left-hand object’s left edge. Conversely, the third icon will vertically align all selected objects to the extreme, right-hand object’s right edge. Interestingly, this tool works great for three, diverse objects – but, for four or more, the objects must be similarly sized.

holders follow, with lesser, but still significant amounts. Three days previous, on April 18, Standard & Poor’s (S&P), an independent provider of credit ratings, warned the U.S.’ coveted AAA credit rating could fall if legislators didn’t take action on the nation’s $9.7 trillion (Treasury Securities) debt. S&P’s website said, “We believe there is a material risk that U.S. policymakers might not reach an agreement on how to address mediumand long-term budgetary challenges by 2013; if an agreement is not reached, and meaningful implementation is not begun by then, this would in our view render the U.S. fiscal profile meaningfully weaker than that of peer ‘AAA’ sovereigns.” Moody’s Investors Service and Standard & Poor’s Corp. presently rate the U.S. at AAA, their highest credit rating. Boomberg News, on November 11 last year, reported that China’s Dagong Global Credit Rating Co. had reduced the U.S. credit rating, to A+ from AA. The China agency cited the “deteriorating intent and ability to repay debt obligations
after the Federal Reserve announced more monetary easing.” It said the Federal Reserves’ plan to buy government debt would erode the value of the dollar [thus, causing inflation] and encroach on the creditors’ interests. If Standard & Poor’s reduces the U.S. government’s credit rating, long-term interest rates would climb, and this, in turn, could slow the country’s economic growth. In 2009, writer Ambrose EvansPritchard, in the U.K.-based Telegraph newspaper, reported that America’s Federal Reserve policy to print money to buy [its own] treasury debt threatened to initiate a serious value decline in the dollar and, thereby, compel China to review its own foreign-reserve policy. He said an international money-policy group had agonized over the Fed’s action, because it would lead to inflation and a serious decline in the dollar’s value. Devalued (“weak”) dollars lessen American-made product prices when they sell in other countries. However, in theory, devaluing increases U.S. manufacturers’ overseas orders, and
Distribute Objects places equal distances between the object’s center, or edge, depending on your icon choice. (see Part 3, Align or Distribute to Key Object, to evenly balance the space between objects.) Try this: Select three or more objects, and choose the Vertical Displace option (distribute icons 1-3) to see the top and bottom objects remain in place, with the between objects distributed evenly. Or, choose the Horizontal Displace option (distribute icons 4-6) to see the extreme left and right objects remain stationary and the between objects allotted evenly. Part 3 Align or Distribute Objects Relative to a Key Object Align-to-Key Object aligns or distributes objects around a chosen object. The Key Object stays in place while all the other objects move into alignment or distribution around it. Try this: Select three or more objects, then click on the key object. It will transform to a more dense color. The Align-to-Key Object automatically turns on in the Align Control Panel. 14 SIGNS OF THE TIMES / JUNE 2011
creates more jobs, but such turnaround measures also increase American buyers’ import prices – those you pay for cars, trucks, gasoline, tools and sign supplies. Anosognosia? Financial pros know money – value changes affect interest values, and this adjustment closely relates to international markets, loans – and inflation. Inflation isn’t predictable. It’s the loose cannon to both finance planners and the common man. When loan makers foresee exceptional inflation, they initiate higher interest rates, to offset any probable purchasing-power loss over the loan’s duration. Not surprisingly, they aim high. As the U.S dollar value declines, and interest and inflation increase, American signshops and their employees will pay even more for all goods. Similar theories govern business investments. Owners and managers must weigh their firm’s purchasing power, in earnings, against a declining dollar. They must also somehow forecast the affect of loose-cannon inflation against any planned, nominal-return rate. n
This tool also allows you to evenly gap between selected objects; thus, it distributes dissimilar objects evenly. Distribute Spacing is found in the Align Panel, not the Control Bar. Try this: Select three or more objects, and tag the Key Object. Go to the bottom Align Panel’s center and input the gap space measurement. Click on the first Distribute Spacing icon to control the horizontal, between-object gaps and the second icon to control the vertical, between-objects gaps. Final Notes Alignment works on all objects, including text and linked images. Text inside a text box aligns to the box edge, not the text edge. Text without a text box will align to the text edge. Masked items align to the mask’s bounding box.

VINYL APPS
“From banners to channel letters to monument signs, vinyl prevails as a sign-decoration staple due to its versatility and durability.”
By Steve Aust
A Veritable Vinyl Cabaret Sign-contest submissions emphasize vinyl’s diverse possibilities.
S ince its mass introduction to the sign market during the mid 1980s, vinyl has become nearly as all-encompassing as death and taxes. From banners to channel letters to monument signs, vinyl prevails as a sign-decoration staple due to its versatility and durability. Every year, International Sign Contest entries emphasize the broad cross-section of projects that require the material. Although the following projects didn’t capture awards, they gave clients vital exposure – thanks, in large part, to vinyl’s staying power.
HyVee’s Arrowhead Heat
Limber Signage ARTfx Signs (Bloomfield, CT) fabricated this corner-mounted sign for a yoga studio. The base comprises welded, 0.125-in.-thick, plate aluminum that’s encased in 15mm, green argon. The circular logo, outlined in 155m, clear-tube, gold argon, features a white-argon-backlit, stencil-cut, 0.125-in.-thick, aluminum face with push-through acrylic decorated with Gerber Scientific Products’ translucent vinyl. The three, acrylic cabinets, which serve as backdrops for the sign’s verbiage, were also decorated with Gerber translucent media. For these components, fluorescent lamps provide the backlighting. 16 SIGNS OF THE TIMES / JUNE 2011
HyVee, a West Des Moines, IA-based retailer with more than 200 locations in seven states, sponsors the Hot Zone at Kansas City’s Arrowhead Stadium, home of the NFL’s Chiefs. Located in the stadium’s Northwest entry concourse, the Hot Zone features live music that brings a tailgating atmosphere into Arrowhead’s confines. Dimensional Innovations (Overland Park, KS) fabricated the sign program, which includes a perforated-metal backdrop with internal gas pipes that fuel 12-in.-high, propanefed flames that heat up live performances; LED strands that provide custom, light-pole displays; and seven, 55-in.-wide, LCD screens. Although perhaps less flamboyant than other program components, vinyl plays a key role in identifying the space. 3M™ Controltac™ repositionable film covers the interior vertical walls of the enormous pole’s spirals, as well as aluminum channel letters, which project from the pole’s corrugated-concrete section.

Standing Tall at the Plaza Gordon Sign (Denver) fabricated this series of monument and pylon signs for an office park in Cherry Creek, an affluent Denver suburb. Brick planters were rebuilt with inserted support structures and fortified masonry to accommodate signs. Gordon developed a custom paint finish to mimic Cor-Ten patina-finish steel. The shop decorated the waterjet-cut, ½-in.-thick acrylic faces with white, translucent vinyl. Fabricators coated the aluminum surfaces with Matthews’ brushed-aluminum, blue and gray acrylic-polyurethane coatings. SloanLED modules illuminate shallow tenant cabinets, and SloanLED Colorline border tubing provides accenting, cabinet-face downlighting that complements the T-12 internal lighting.
On the Horizon Construction sites no longer need be eyesores thanks to fence or barrier messages that tout the future business. Creative Sign Designs (Tampa) fabricated this 300-ft.-long, mesh-banner windscreen to promote a forthcoming assisted-living facility. The shop designed the program using CorelDraw X5, SAI’s FlexiSign 8.5, AutoCAD 2007 and Adobe Creative Suite 5. Creative Sign Designs produced the lengthy graphic in 15 sections on Key Banner’s 9-oz., mesh material using the shop’s Graphtec solvent-ink printer. To create the borders, fabricators used a hem-and-grommet machine. 18 SIGNS OF THE TIMES / JUNE 2011

Changes in Latitude, Changes in Attitude Jimmy Buffett’s music tends to elicit strong reactions, both positive and negative. But, his commercial success is undisputed, as is the attractiveness of this neon sign. Signature Sign & Image (Niagara Falls, ON, Canada) and several other companies produced the sign; exposed-neon channels render his name, and frontlighting and halo-lighting illuminate Margaritaville, his restaurant chain’s moniker. The palm trees, sun, surf and the parrot comprise 6-in.-deep, channel boxes that feature digitally printed 3M Scotchcal vinyl and exposed neon installed over the boxes. E.J. Hannes Co. Ltd. built the can letters; Commercial Digital Print (St. Catharine’s, ON, Canada) output the graphics; and Jiri Sir, also of St. Catharine’s, fabricated the neon.

Rick wanted the 10 x 14-ft. space on his shop’s exterior wall to grab the passersby’s attention. O’Neal, himself a drummer, considered depicting a band playing a song’s opening note. Local photographer Steve Stoltzfus captured the backlit image; Conestoga DPI designer Justin Moyer refined the design using Adobe® Photoshop® and developed the printing set-up using the Colorburst® 7.1 RIP.

By Jeff Petersen
Pier Into the Future A team of sign and lighting companies repurpose a popular NYC waterfront destination.
Tcruise-ship o boost NYC’s profile as a destination, NYCruise and the NYC Economic Dev. Corp. (EDC) commissioned the development of a brilliantly lit façade for Piers 88 and 90, the primary docks at the Manhattan Cruise Terminal. The piers were originally built in the 1930s to accommodate cruise ships, but hadn’t been updated
since the 1970s. The facades previously conveyed an industrial, almost sterile, appearance, with painted numerals on the entrance elevations. Clearly, these didn’t provide the face the NYC tourism industry wanted visitors to see. Although several cruise lines use the Terminal, the Carnival and Norwegian lines are its primary
American Signcrafters (Islip, NY) fabricated the signage components for a bold entry statement installed at Piers 88 and 90, the main points of entry for cruise ships that stop in NYC. NYCruise and the NYC Economic Development Corp. commissioned the project. Two Twelve Associates (NYC) crafted the original design intent, and Focus Lighting (NYC) developed the lighting program. It features various Philips Color Kinetics LED-illumination products.
An animation controller creates various lighting effects, such as this replication of a sunset’s colors that runs every evening. The system displays various color programs, as well as branded content for the Norwegian and Carnival cruise lines, whose ships are the pier’s primary occupants. 26 SIGNS OF THE TIMES / JUNE 2011
customers. Understandably, such a highprofile, large-scale project required close collaboration. Two Twelve Assoc., an NYC-based, environmentalgraphic-design firm, developed the original design intent with the project’s architect, Bermello, Ajamil & Assoc. Two Twelve also specified the lightsource and materials. American Signcrafters produced the construction drawings and worked with our engineering firm to create engineering drawings. We reported to Turner Construction, the general contractor, during the project. Focus Lighting (NYC) developed the lighting system, which WSP Flack + Kurtz engineered. Having been in business since 1979, we’ve undertaken such highprofile projects as Miami’s Dolphin Mall and numerous bank-sign changeovers – Wells Fargo, TD Bank and Capitol One, among others. NYC-based King Displays and Eagle Master Signs contracted us to build the sign components and manage their installation. Both pier signs measure 30 ft. long, and the vertical sections average 13 ft. 4 in. tall. The letters and numerals comprise 3⁄16-in.-thick, white Sheffield Makrolon® polycarbonate, which we specified because it’s more forgiving to the letters’ required twists and bends as they follow the canopy’s surface. We fabricated the faces on our Gerber Scientific Products AR-600 CNC router, and detailed the shapes with rubber mallets, pliers, snips, cordless drills and screwdrivers. Building the 3-D radius contours in the letterforms created the project’s greatest challenge. We worked within very tight tolerances; the forms had to fit the canopy support structure that was fabricated by another vendor. To do this, we manufactured custom, wood and plywood forms that were based on

the steel canopies’ structure. Then, we shaped the letters as they were constructed to their contours. Onsite, it was challenging to install the forms over the canopies. Because we were the last layer of construction, we had to wait for Karman Iron Works to finish fabricating the steel canopy, and not obstruct Girandola & Suskind’s aluminum-sheathing process. Turner did a great job coordinating 28 SIGNS OF THE TIMES / JUNE 2011
the whole project. According to Michael Cummings, Focus Lighting’s project designer, in addition to the easy maintenance, LEDs’ color-changing capabilities made the technology the natural choice for the project. NYCruise and the NYC EDC tasked WSP Flack + Kurtz with finding a firm that specialized in LED and kinetic lighting, and they recommended Focus Lighting.
Focus Lighting developed four layers of illumination for the signs; all use Philips Color Kinetics products. On the face of the perforated-steel panels, ColorGraze™ Powercore, a narrow-profile, linear fixture, provides surface lighting. ColorBlast, an RGB floodlight illuminates the structure behind the sign. iColor Flex SLX LED strands illuminate the individual letters and provide an addi-

the Hudson River, which morphs into a branded show that promotes NYC Cruise and the Manhattan Cruise Terminal. Every hour, the numerals’ colors morph to replicate
a lighthouse beacon’s bright-white illumination, and, at the bottom of every hour, it transitions into a blue, aquatically themed program. To create the intricate animation

By Dr. Nisa Khan
LEDs, Are They Expensive or Inexpensive? Why and Why Not? Overstatements can confuse expectations.
M ore and more, LED lamps have captured global attention in science, industry, government and the general population, as applications increasingly light up buildings, billboards, entertainment zones, signs, decorative lights and even television screens. The related excitement is so overpowering that, Samsung, a few years back, labeled one of its TV models as “LED TV,” but, frankly, the sets were mere LCD TVs with LEDbased backlighting. Unfortunately, such overstatements often generate misleading expectations. Many expect LED lamps will soon replace many everyday lamps, if not all of them. Others argue LEDs’ costs limit this predicted prevalence, but, in contrast, inexpensive – cheap – LED offers crowd the Internet. So, are LED lamps too expensive? The answer is yes and no. And, because reducing costs and energy consumption, and protecting natural resources is an imperative task for all, a grasp of the high costs’ underlying reasons is essential for LED manufacturers, resellers – and end users. Core challenge Currently, high-brightness and highquality LED lamps are too expensive for wide-ranging use. At heart is the binning issue, which arises from the wide-ranging light and electrical characteristics produced from the same wafer during manufacturing, especially when compared to the much smaller (and accepted) variations experienced in other lamp-building technologies. Such LED lamp variations result from a complex set of issues that encircle semiconductor-material growth, processing and fabrication, which also affects the interdependent optoelectronic and thermal properties. The laborious process of consistently binning LED chips, with a required degree of light parameters 38 SIGNS OF THE TIMES / JUNE 2011
for different applications, comprises large and expensive testing equipment and significant manual intervention. The latter is necessary to measure such light parameters as luminance, flux, color, directivity and power consumption. This complex gauging determines the suitable bin. Also, because the parameters are temperature- and drive-current dependent (which also affect LEDs’ lifespans), these matters become more complicated. The solid-state lighting (SSL) industry’s standards group member – National Electrical Manufacturers Assn. (NEMA) – provides specific testing procedures for each parameter. Compared to their electronic counterparts, semiconductor technologybased optical and lighting performances are subjected to notorious yields. A further actuality is the fundamentally different– and rarefied – science that underlies optoelectronic and electronic technologies. The divergence is because photons (light particles) have vastly (a factor of 1,000) larger wavelengths than electrons that function at the same energy level; hence, the materials’ imperfections, processes and fabrication affect light parameters much more than what manufacturers experience with electrical parameters. Further, most electronic devices are digital, and a binary decision is the only basic-level function from which other binary decisions follow, which produce, finally, many complex functions. In contrast, most optical and lighting devices are analog and require many different types of light parameters to function simultaneously. An exception, however, is an indicator light’s binary function – the light merely needs to be “on” when a gadget is on. Further, the light’s color and intensity aren’t important as long as it’s visible and comfort-
able to the human eye. Therefore, LED indicator lights provide a basic, binary function. Because of this fundamental simplicity, they’re abundant, cheap and quite reliable. Binning requirements For high-end lighting applications, manufacturers carefully bin LED lamps to meet the required criteria. The object is to meet the light sources’ dual onset and lifespan demands. Because numerous, same-batch chips fall below some requirement standards, manufacturers’ implement in-process, optical testing, to ensure accurate binning. The reject level may be up to 90%, so, clearly, such scrutiny increases the cost of high-quality LED lamps. Note, however, that rejects aren’t discarded. Instead, they’re sold to many different vendors who package and sell them at discounted prices. These inexpensive, “reclaimed” LED lamps are likely to perform poorly and lack the lifetime claimed by an unscrupulous distributor. To cite the cost of high-quality LED lamps, manufacturers must improve their lamps’ quality and life. Quality improvements require further material, fabrication and processing developments. Lifespan lengthens through performing more optical tests at the wafer level, rather than the die level, where the majority of the binning occurs today. Wafer-level “step-and-repeat” testing is faster and less labor intensive. Validation testing is important because LED lamps are temperature, drive-current and installation-configuration sensitive; thus, various supplychain stages can affect the optical parameters. Currently, the tests commence with wafer probing, followed by testing bare and mounted dies, but it ends with packaged LEDs. However, I believe testing should continue

LED UPDATE after post-processors implant the lamps in displays, luminaires or other fixtures. Finally, the end users – signmakers, for example – should also test lamps for optimal, light-source usage in the end environment. Binning standards LED chips are processed in the initial wafer, and then diced to the
die stage, where they are sorted or binned (using such test equipment as integrating spheres and spectrophotometers) for light-output level and color parameters. In truth, the industry awaits further specifications of NEMA binning standards; so, now, the selection process varies among manufacturers. (NEMA did announce its first SSL
standard on April 13. The SSL 3-2010 High-Power White LED Binning for General Illumination standard, produced by NEMA’s Solid State Lighting Section, provides standardized categorization areas [bins] for “white” LEDs used for general lighting.) For many white LED lamps, which comprise blue LED chips and phosphors, such binning cannot be completed at the die stage, because phosphor is often added at the packaging stage. Part of the lens-encapsulation system, it occurs after the wirebonded die is attached to a substrate or heat-sink material. Such binningmethods variances alter the cost of different manufacturers’ LEDs. Along with flux, other deliberated, binning parameters comprise dominant wavelength, correlated color temperature (CCT), chromaticity and color-rendering index (CRI). Ambiguity Ambiguity also exists in lifetime’s testing. Because LEDs usually don’t fail catastrophically, as do standard incandescent lamps, lifetime rating predictions are problematic. Rather than determining the lifetime or output degradation, the IESNA-LM-80 standard defines certain lumen maintenance of LED lamps over time -when an LED lamp’s output will drop to 70% of its initial light output, for example. Determining lifetime requires testing an LED lamp for up to 10,000 hours, at multiple temperatures, including 85°C (185° F). As the industry matures, many of these binning tests, including lifetime testing, should move to the wafer level, where they’ll incorporate sophisticated sampling and equivalencies that essentially guarantee the same optical-parameter results as those lamps presently tested at die and packaged levels. Such critical materials as phosphors and sapphire substrates also affect LED lamp costs. Some phosphor materials require rare-earth elements -- yttrium, cerium, terbium and europium. The LED epitaxial growth method, known as MOCVD (Metal-Organic Chemical Vapor
40 SIGNS OF THE TIMES / JUNE 2011
LED UPDATE
Deposition), also requires another critical material, trimethyl gallium, as metal-organic foundations. Although not all are expensive materials, the demands are rapidly increasing and, presently, the industry is experiencing a supplies shortage. Critical-materials management is crucial to reducing LED cost; it also helps ensure an adequate supply for future needs.

Commitments Although elemental differences exist between optoelectronics and electronics technologies, many of the material and testing challenges discussed here relate to what the electronics industry is also exploring. Attribute the electronics triumph to vigorous competition among various companies. For example, the current, hottest, Smartphones include chips made by Qualcomm, Nvidia, Marvell and Intel, although the latter came in late. These companies battle for market share in the same way Intel battled Applied Micro Devices in the ’80s and ’90s. Further, Samsung and Texas Instruments compete to improve processor speed, energy-efficiency and other performance facets that will produce the Smartphone market’s fastest application processor. Clearly, the committed players want substantially improved technologies and lower product costs and are willing to obtain this by first consigning substantial R&D and manufacturing costs. These types of commitments were absent in the optoelectronics industry’s past and, now, also, appear only offstage in the LED lighting industry. Unquestionably, however, it’s a tougher bet to forge ahead with LED lighting – which isn’t nearly as exciting as Smartphones – and still a struggle to oust its salient incumbents – incandescent and fluorescent lamps in particular, for general lighting applications. n To read related articles on this subject, visit www.signweb.com/EDS and www.signweb.com/lighting.

Onyx ProductionHouse Version X10 Best features? Simplified profiling and improved cut-file handling. Key Information Onyx 6915 South High Tech Dr. Salt Lake City, UT 84047 (801) 568-9900 www.onyxgfx.com Company Profile: Onyx Graphics strives to improve bottom-line results by reducing printing costs and increasing productivity. Onyx Graphics develops and markets commercial-printing software and solutions for the digital, color-printing marketplace by combining color science, image processing and print-production knowledge. The company’s RIP products include Onyx ProductionHouse™, Onyx PosterShop® and Onyx RIPCenter.
O ur shop derives its funds from pushing the envelope. Meaning, we provide (and charge more for) extraordinary service, and this separates us from average shops. Our policy is to make the shop printers work for us, not the opposite. Further, we like the comfortable feeling that correct color is a shop norm, not an isolated incident. Formerly, we scrambled various ICC profiles onto test prints, while questioning our eyesight, or, worse, having others say, “I don’t know … it does look close.” Real printers know what we’re talking about. We’d already decided to migrate from our old trusty Windows 2000 RIP station when we learned that Onyx Graphics had improved its profiling system and made numerous other important additions and changes. Like most shops, we had various machines and software, and a simple inventory convinced us to upgrade an in house system, to accommodate the ProductionHouse Version X10 system requirements for the new RIP station. We chose Vista’s Home Premium system and upgraded
Fig. 1: A really cool feature – you can read ink levels directly from the RIP. 44 SIGNS OF THE TIMES / JUNE 2011
At a glance: With its ProductionHouse Version X10, Onyx Graphics has added advanced, ease-of-use tools and fully integrated contour cutting into its RIP software. At press time, it also announced the Production House X10.1 version upgrade that features grayscale profiling and other useful tools. Contact: Sales Department 800-828-0723 sales@onyxgfx.com to Windows 7 Ultimate (the only possible path, without implementing a clean install – or purchasing two upgrades). This ate our over-time cost savings. RIPs are essential to process large files into wideand grand-format printers and, even though social networks have lessened the average viewer’s perception of acceptable image quality, all bets are off when an image appears on a printed page or sheet. There, image quality derives from huge data parcels, and you need high-performance software and gear to carry the incoming data, make prepress changes and send it to a print machine. Truth is, computer speeds and media capacity have increased, as has file size and printer ink types; colors, white ink, coatings and printheads; associated technology upgrades and the feeding of multiple printers with, perhaps, different ink types. How, truly, does one manage such a menagerie? With a production-environment RIP station. Operating system ProductionHouse Version X10 requires a compatible operating system. You must have the latest service pack for Windows XP Pro® 32-bit or 64-bit; or Windows Vista® Business/Enterprise 32 and 64-bit with, again, the latest service pack; or Windows 7® Professional, Enterprise, and Ultimate, 32-bit and 64-bit with, once
more, the latest service pack. The CPU should be an Intel Core i7 3.2 GHz processor, memory 6GB DDR3 (3 x 2 GB) (min 2GB), 1066 Mhz fully buffered ECC RAM, with enough harddrive disks for storing the application. You need a drive each for your printers (up to four) and one for temporary data processing. You can get by with one storage disk at 50GB [we recommend the serial advanced technology attachment (SATA) drive]. Additionally, you’ll want a 1280 x 1024 16-bit, color video card, an open USB port and a DVD slot. Version X10’s User Interface is similar to previous versions, but the new software is packed with surprises. Look top right, for example, for the “i” button (next to the green status button), and click on it to access such information (Fig. 1) as ink levels and job accounting information, plus per-job media and ink usage. The cutting edge The Cut-Server is a fresh, likeable tool with an independent menu that works directly with the printers/ cutters. Via Quick Sets, the Cut-Server allows you to quickly build workflows for print-and-cut jobs. Further, you no longer need to reopen the design application to fix cut-path errors or manage multiple-cut styles and you can also store cut parameters. To us, the software’s epic feature is the Color Profiling workhorse. Because of this automated, frustration-free, color-correcting feature, many once-nightmarish processes are now easy. For example, two years ago, we bought a printer that, supposedly, implemented the task via an on-board spectrophotometer. Long story short: it only worked with the PostScript® version printer. Unfortunately, we already had an Onyx Graphics RIP and didn’t need PostScript. Today, while testing the profiling software via its “Wizard” system, we learned the printer and on-board spectrophotometer worked automatically. Cool. During the process, we sat back and thought we could read the newspaper. No. In just minutes, it brought up the new, evaluation-ready – or not – color table (Fig 2). No worries, either, if you prefer a handheld measuring instrument. And, if you’re an advanced user who wants to evaluate and tweak curves, choose the Black Diamond section (Fig. 3). Great work, Onyx Graphics. Grayscale features The simplified profiling and improved cutter support alone make X10 a fabulous upgrade or new purchase, but imagine our surprise when Onyx Graphics telephoned to tell us of the soon-to-be-released Version X10.1 build. It will add new features for both the professional and novice. For example, Onyx Graphics recognizes that professional print houses are applying balanced grayscale,
Fig. 2: The Media Manager will prompt you on printing the target swatches and measuring their values. After scanning, it displays the measured values.
Fig. 3: Onyx software employs a new “Black Diamond” to indicate advanced user options to override software-selected values. Here, clicking the Black Diamond allows you to tweak the ICC Profile options.
in order to produce pleasing images. In reply, Onyx Graphics’ X10.1 RIP software provides the hooks to work with CHROMiX’s Curve2 calibration software, which eases grayscale calibration. JDF features Another Version X10.1 announcement is its first-phase support of Job Description Files (JDF). A JDF file describes the customer’s needs and supplies machinespecific instructions, to ensure proper rendering and finishing of a job from start to finish. Onyx Graphics’ first phase will introduce acceptance of JDF in the workflow and use of the JDF metadata within the job queue. ProductionHouse Version X10 is a super upgrade. The simplified profiling and improved cut-file handling make it a bargain. If you’re already an Onyx user, or are looking for a RIP, explore Onyx software. The upcoming X10.1 up displays that Onyx Graphics listens -- and reacts -- to its customer’s needs. n SIGNS OF THE TIMES / JUNE 2011 45

Trecently he American Sign Museum welcomed two 1950’s-era area signs to the collection, thanks to a pair of Wolverine State signshops. The story actually began more than 10 months ago when the museum received an e-mail from Dave Lindenbach, project manager for RWL Sign Co. (Kalamazoo, MI). He explained how they were getting ready to take down the Oasis Liquor sign in nearby Paw Paw, and asked if the museum would be interested in it. He’d already approached the owner, Larry Larson, about donating the sign to the museum. Thanks to sign sleuth Debra Jane Seltzer, and her vast Flickr collection of vintage sign images, I was able to view the sign’s illumination in its better days. A local icon, this represents of the type of locally manufactured, custom neon signage the museum and its visitors treasure. Lindenbach spoke with RWL owner Robert Leet, who agreed to store the sign and hold it for a few months until the museum could pick it up. Of course, that was back
in Summer 2010. Several planned trips to Michigan never materialized, but RWL continued to store the sign. Then, another Michigan-area sign company, Higgins Signs (East Lansing), removed another vintage, neon sign, and asked if we were interested. Thanks to Jamie Higgins, and his wife, Susan, we have more documentation about the sign’s history. The sign was manufactured in 1952 for Moose Lodge #288, which closed some years later and donated the sign to a second area lodge, #2291. The second lodge could no longer afford to maintain the sign, and sought a good home for it. Higgins intervened and told the fraternal group about the American Sign Museum. Ironically, Higgins had actually refurbished the sign 25 years earlier while working for another sign company. He even had slides documenting the work, and a handwritten, but thorough, list of various repaired neon units, which included color and tube diameter.
(Above) Higgins Signs employees Pat Burkhardt (left) and Jamie Higgins help carry the Moose Lodge sign, which was originally built more than 50 years ago, to Tod’s truck. (Right) RWL Sign Co.’s Frank Combs helped Tod rig the signs on his truck. 46 SIGNS OF THE TIMES / JUNE 2011
Higgins called in January, and I finally hit the road for Michigan in April. First, we visited East Lansing, and then ventured west 100 miles to Kalamazoo. When I arrived at Higgins Signs, I was surprised to encounter Lansing State Journal reporter Laura Misjak and photographer Rodney Sanford. Moose Lodge #2291 representative Russ Nisse was also there, and he filled us in on the sign’s history. The next morning, the Journal published a story about the Moose Lodge sign donation. We very much appreciate the press. I offer sincere thanks to Jamie and Susan Higgins for all their work in making the acquisition happen, and to Jamie and Pat Burkhardt, who strapped the sign down that morning. I’d also be remiss if I didn’t mention the dozen cookies Susan baked for me. Thanks also go to Lindenbach, who made the Oasis Liquor sign donation possible, and especially to RWL’s Frank Combs, who taught me a few new signrigging tricks that afternoon. n

A Face for Any Space A gallery of exhibit graphics conveys the broad array of possible solutions. By Steve Aust
Tof the he past few years have been rough on virtually all facets event industry. Declining discretionary dollars have reduced travel budgets for companies of every stripe, which has decreased traffic on tradeshow floors and in museum galleries. Couple this with the advent of video-conferencing services like GotoMeeting.com, and face-to-face meetings encounter several challenges. The Center for Exhibit Information Research (CEIR), the market-research arm of the Intl. Assn. for Exhibit and Events (IAEE), a Dallas-based organization, reports, although attendance increased 2.4% in 2010, revenue declined 8.4%. CEIR’s report states, as a silver lining, “Historically, total attendance has closely correlated with overall, non-farm payroll employment. However, attendance continued to rise as employment fell. Therefore, as employment grows over the next three years, attendance should pace exhibition interest. Month-tomonth, net-job creation is the indicator to watch [in 2011].” Terri Phillips, senior manager for IAEE and CEIR, said more than 14,000 events sold 710 million net sq. ft. of exhibit space in 2010. Contrastingly, in 2005, a similar number of events only generated 530 million net sq. ft. of space. Thus, despite the social-media revolution’s overall connectivity, in-person events remain vital for creating event buzz or extolling a brand, service or organization’s value. This broad sample of tradeshow, institution and museum exhibits emphasizes what forward-thinking designers and fabricators can achieve when, to paraphrase poet Emily Dickinson, they dwell in possibilities. 60 SIGNS OF THE TIMES / JUNE 2011
An Exclamatory Statement The Consumer Electronics Show (CES) annually displays hot, trendy electronic hardware and applications for tech-savvy consumers. With brash upstarts arriving annually, established cyberspace stalwarts like Yahoo! must present a fresh face to the approximately 140,000 who attended CES 2011 in Las Vegas – among them very scrutinizing bloggers and tweeters ready to broadcast the slightest real or perceived imperfection. Rainier Industries (Seattle) produced the structures, displays and graphics for Colt Group Inc., Yahoo!’s marketing agency. The 40 x 40-ft. exhibit space featured a 750-sq.-ft. backdrop of dye-sublimation printed graphics, which Rainier constructed using Fisher Textiles Symmetry stretchable fabric, which the shop printed with an EFI-VUTEk 3360 dye-sublimation printer. Roughly 200 sq. ft. of complementary digital graphics were produced on the shop’s Durst Rho printer. Selwyn Sampson, Rainier’s account director, said tensioning the 39-ft.-long fabric backdrop along the angled support frame was most challenging because making it perfectly taut required slow, gradual, manufacturing progress. To provide additional booth identification, Rainier fabricated two sets of dimensional, pan-faced channel letters using CNC-routed, lightweight aluminum. Colt Group Inc. also installed a rear-projection system to convey the iconic brand across the tradeshow space.
Meet the Mets The New York Mets, who are playing their 50th season as a Major League Baseball team, are celebrating their legacy with 7,844 sq. ft. of exhibit space inside Citi Field, their home stadium in Queens, NY. Brian Mirakian, an architect for Populous, the Kansas City-based firm that handled the stadium’s design/build, approached Nashville, TNbased 1220 Exhibits about fabricating the exhibit and graphic packages. Working for the Queens Ball Park Co., 1220’s staff teamed with Steve Griffin, an editor and writer, to develop a story in conjunction with Populous, which also designed the graphics. Because of the project’s compact turnaround time – it kicked off during the Christmas holiday season, with a strict Opening Day deadline – 1220 enlisted several contractors to assist. Mega Media Concepts (Sparta, NJ), Vomela (Minneapolis) and AAA Flag & Banner (Los Angeles) produced different digital-graphic aspects, and Endless Edge Graphics (Nashville), Falcon Fabricators (Nashville) and Signs + Decal Corp. (NYC) fabricated various 3-D exhibit components. Anna Cage, 1220’s marketing director, said Mets officials considered recycled-material usage. She said all soft-sided graphics incorporated recycled materials, as did all aluminum components and MDF parts used for signage and casework. Similar thinking led to specifying LEDs to light the exhibit. The shop fabricated wall-mural and suspended-ring graphics using 3M Scotchprint material, which was printed using a 3M Scotchprint 2000 electrostatic printer. For the central pennant pylon, Endless Edge printed it on brushed-aluminum Formica® laminate mounted to Dibond using an Agfa Anapurna MV UV-ink, flatbed printer material. 1220 Exhibits produced the digital graphics for all casework on an Océ LightJet 500XL photo-laser printer using FujiFlex photographic media, and mounted them to various substrates on a GBC Orca III laminator. 1220’s AVI department developed the electronic-display program using custom-built, kiosk computers; ELO touchscreen monitors; BrightSign video repeaters and interactive content, which Silver Oaks developed.

Enlivening History Southwest Museum Services (Houston) produces exhibit graphics for various regional institutions. Its portfolio included the Buddy Holly Museum (Lubbock, TX) and the Dallas Holocaust Museum. Charles Houser, a Southwest graphic designer, said the economy didn’t significantly impact the company because project funding had been procured in most cases before conditions worsened. The company produced a comprehensive, permanent exhibit program for the Fort Randolph and Fort Buhlow State Historic Site in Alexandria, LA, that recounts the forts’ roles during the Civil War. Using source materials supplied by the site’s managers, Houser and exhibit designer Juan Diaz composed the program using Adobe’s Creative Suite 5, as well as FlexiSign Pro to design vinyl-graphic elements. “One of my favorite parts of the project was photographing the Red River and using the image to develop a 75-ft.-long mural that spans an entire exhibit section,” Houser said. “The combination of vinyl graphics and physical artifacts proved interesting and required careful layout so one element didn’t overpower the other.” He said Southwest fabricated the 62 SIGNS OF THE TIMES / JUNE 2011
vinyl components using Oracal’s 631 exhibit-grade, calendered film because it would provide the best backdrop to complement overlapping graphics. It printed the graphics on an Encad Novajet 850 60-in. printer. For the featured graphics, the shop printed Lexjet’s 7-mil Universal Fine Photo Satin Plus paper protected with Lexjet’s 3-mil, satin-finish laminate. Southwest installed the prints
on 0.125-in.-thick Komatex® PVC backers. Houser offered advice applicable to all signage and graphic designers: “Get involved with the production process and learn what can and can’t be done. When you understand how to properly use materials, your designs will flourish because you more effectively envision the end result.”
An Historic Identity Paul Levy, executive director of Philadelphia’s Center City District, approached Cloud Gehshan Associates about developing a signage and interpretive-graphic system for the Benjamin Franklin Parkway, a major thoroughfare that serves as the city’s western gateway and an epicenter for the city’s museums. The program includes 36 panels, which are fabricated in two sizes, as well as 18 sculpture panels. Jerome Cloud, one of the firm’s co-principals, said, “The interpretive panals focus on the rich and compelling stories associated with the planning and development of the Parkway and its institutions.” Alice Dommert of Dommert Phillips (Philadelphia) developed the content through interviews with stakeholders and historical research. According to Cloud, finding a balance between highlighting history and focusing on the institution’s contemporary missions proved vital. In keeping with the Fairmount Park signage system, of which the Parkway is an extension, Cloud Gehshan maintained a
broad color palette – bucolic and historic yet urbane. It was important for the project to unite the Parkway’s urban setting with the more pastoral Fairmount Park System and the Delaware Riverfront Greenway. The firm specified the sign program’s materials, which included fired porcelain enamel for the interpretive panels, that Cloud Gehshan specified because of a porcelain enamel’s durability and vibrant color. For changeable map components, they implemented phenolicresin panels. For the primary signs, Urban Sign (Vineland, NJ) fabricated aluminum panels that are coated with PPG’s Coraflon fluoropolymer metal coatings. “One of the most daunting challenges was the sheer scope of a big project that required approvals from a diverse group of stakeholders,” Cloud said. “It’s a tribute to the Center City District officials that they maintain their vision and make the project happen.” The project’s success spurred city officials and agencies to use the Fairmount Park and Parkway graphic systems to pursue similar projects throughout Philadelphia.

Mendeleev Reimagined Periodic-table inventor Dmitri Mendeleev probably couldn’t have imagined such a colorful appropriation of his creation. Design360 (NYC) devised approximately 4,000 sq. ft. of environmental graphics for the American Institute of Graphic Artists (AIGA) NYC headquarters for 64 SIGNS OF THE TIMES / JUNE 2011
its 365 event, at which the organization annually bestows awards for graphic-design excellence. Jill Ayers, Design 360’s creative director, termed the project design “a designer’s laboratory.” The individuals and processes that entailed each entry were featured as elements in this over-
sized, stylized treatment of the periodic table and corresponding displays and fixtures. Elements included “Design Firm,” “Client” and “Binding Method,” among others. The color-coded components carry through all components. To conserve resources, she said Design 360 retrofitted AIGA’s existing work tables to simulate a lab environment.

ISA’s Sign Expo 2011 –
Digital-Print News and Highlights A compilation from the Las Vegas show floor
By Darek Johnson
P rior to ISA’s Sign Expo 2011 tradeshow, ST contacted numerous digital-print manufacturers and requested product information on their Sign Expo exhibits, to publish in this issue. The following pages – which comprise an overview of digital-print, newproduct news – summarize their return information, along with notes gained from our firsthand visits to the Las Vegas exhibits. Because not all digital-print manufacturers replied to our request, this is an extensive, but not inclusive, list. ST, by tradition, welcomes manufacturers’ news and new-product press releases, with photographs, to publish editorially in the magazine and on signweb.com.

ADA Changes Loom Recently implemented ADAAG guidelines require significant changes. Photo courtesy of Mike Santos, Nova Polymers
By Steve Aust
O n March 15, updated Americans with Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines (ADAAG) took effect. These govern the construction, alteration and identification of ADAcovered facilities – commercial facilities, state- and- local-government buildings and other entities that provide public accommodations. The regulations occurred through a joint consensus reached by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), the International Building Code and the ADA Advisory Council. Currently, facilities may observe either new or previous ADAAG requirements. However, on March 15, 2012, all facilities must comply with the new standards. Transportation facilities (airports, train and bus depots), which are administered by the Department of Transportation, and federal property, which the General Services Administration or the Department of Defense oversees, already comply with ADAAG standards. Recently, I attended a workshop that pertained to ADA regulations at Cincinnati’s Michael Shuster Architects. Craig Berger, the Society for Environmental Graphic Design’s (SEGD) director of education and a member of the ANSI board that developed the standard, and Dixie Graphics’ sales executive Matt Williams led the program. The following is a summary of the key ADA regulations Berger outlined, as well as common ADA-sign materials and production processes. To read the DOJ regulations’ entire treatment of ADA signs, go to www. ada.gov/2010ADAstandards_ index.htm and read Chapter 7, “Communication Elements and Features.” 70 SIGNS OF THE TIMES / JUNE 2011
Effective March 2012, all facilities must accommodate new ADA-sign guidelines. Key changes impact the sign height, typeface height and width, and specific spaces between characters.
Typography requirements According to Department of Justice (DOJ) statistics, approximately 2.5 million Americans are legally blind. This means, even with corrective lenses, the person’s visual acuity is less than 20/200, or line of vision measures less than 20°. Millions more suffer with limited vision brought on by such conditions as glaucoma and macular degeneration. Although braille has historically been perceived as a visually impaired person’s means of receiving information, the DOJ reports only 5% of visually impaired people use it to read. Rather, most read tactile copy. Therefore, the typeface, character width and color contrast, among other factors, represent key elements that ADAAG regulations address. Here’s a summary of some of the new rules’ key components. 1. All tactile copy must be raised at least 1⁄32 in. above the substrate’s surface. Also, these characters must be sans serif, not italic or decora-
tive. The stroke’s width on the typeface’s uppercase “I” must not exceed 15% of the letter’s height. Roughly, that equates to a ratio of 1 in. wide for every 6.5 in. tall. Also, the width of the font’s “O” (generally the widest letter) must measure 55 to 110% of height in relation to the typeface’s “I.” Thus, several fonts popular with environmental-graphic projects, such as Times Roman, Garamond and Goudy, which include significant serifs, aren’t permissible under new ADAAG guidelines. Berger noted the considerable number of effective sans-serif fonts, such as Helvetica, Fruitger and Arial – with more constantly being developed or adapted. 2. To ensure uniform character spacing that doesn’t confuse or frustrate the visually impaired, characters must be at least 1⁄8 in. apart, but not more than four times the characters’ stroke width, at the closest points between adjacent
le-Tac Advance Brail Kathy Wilson, of Photo courtesy
characters. Copy height must range from 5⁄8 to 2 in. 3. However, when ADA signage incorporates a separate set of characters, designed to create visual contrast that makes the sign recognizable to those with limited vision, tactile characters may only vary from ½ to ¾ in. tall, with no contrast requirement. 4. Signs with multiple lines of raised copy must have a space between lines that’s at least 35%, but not more than 70%, of the height of the typeface’s letter “I,” from the top of the lower line to the bottom of the upper line. 5. The distance from the floor to the bottom of a sign’s tactile characters must be at least 4 ft., but can’t exceed 5 ft. 6. Braille characters (Grade II Braille is required) must be placed below tactile components, and they must be rounded in shape and raised 0.025 to 0.037 in. above the sign’s surface. 7. Overhead signs (designated as those that are perpendicular to a wall, and ceiling-mounted or cantilvered off a wall, and more than 80 in. above the ground) less than 10 ft. above the ground must have characters at least 2 in. tall. Those more than 10 ft. overhead require characters more than 3 in. tall. One discarded proposal would’ve required a color-contrast ratio of 70%, as proposed by some advocates for the visually impaired. The ratio is measured by subtracting the numeric light reflective value (LRV) of the color from the higher-LRV color, and dividing it by the higher value. “We fought hard to keep this from becoming law,” Berger said. “This would have greatly limited the number of colors ADA-sign designers and fabricators could use. And, this requirement does not have a real correlation with visual perception and could pose very serious implications for the design of interior signage for public buildings.” He acknowledged that, unfortunately, many handicapped-accessibility projects skirt, if not outright flout, ADA guidelines. For legal protection, Berger advised that any

party involved get a letter in writing that the client, designer or fabricator intends to disregard ADA regulations. “If someone sues over ADA noncompliance, it’s not likely that the instituion will be found liable,” he said. “Blame will roll downhill.” Materials and methods 1. Raster™ Braille, which works with other engraving and routing machines and software to insert Raster spherical dots into the desired location. Plastics don’t require adhesives because friction secures the characters in place; metals and other materials require clear adhesives. Because Raster Braille is fabricated within such minute tolerances, coatings aren’t recommended for this process because they’re likely to make the Braille dots too shallow or misshapen, and therefore non-compliant. 2. Chemical etching entails printing graphics and braille on metal sheets – according to Berger, any metal except aluminum accommodates the process – with a powerful UV light that’s filtered through a film negative. The flat sheet is then placed into a caustic bath of nitric acid, water and an oil-based additive. Imaged areas remain raised while the bath eats the remaining panel portion. The process creates copy and Braille dots with a slight angle, and the tops of the Braille dots are sanded. The fabricator uses a special pen
tool to dome the dots to make the surface ADA-compliant. Berger emphasized the importance of buying from an established vendor instead of attempting the process in-shop: “A signshop in Manhattan suffered an explosion because they used the wrong proportions of volatile chemicals. Don’t take that chance.” 3. Photopolymer panels comprise a light-sensitive, synthetic compound. A clear, high-resolution photopolymer sheet may be applied to various base surfaces. Computer-generated artwork is printed on a film negative and placed on the sheet. Exposure to ultraviolet light hardens the raised area. Braille-translation software designed for photopolymer may be used to create ADA-compliant characters. A 2mm-thick, satin-finish clearcoat or acrylic-polyurethane paint is required to protect the surface. 4. Sandblasting etches braille characters or raised letters into a glass panel using a non-silicate abrasive. 5. Encapsulated polycarbonate (PC) is manufactured using a multi-layer process that covers it with a 1⁄32-in.-thick, non-glare sheet. Tactile copy and graphics, raised 1⁄31 in., include Grade II Braille. All letters, numerals and graphics must contrast with the background. The PC layer may be applied to acrylic, metals, glass or wood, among other materials. n SIGNS OF THE TIMES / JUNE 2011 71
ADA Signage for Las Vegas CityCenter’s Vdara Hotel California’s Wolfpack Sign Group spent a year on this $250,000 program. By Ryan Meyer CityCenter is a three-hotel/casino, 67-acre, seven-building, nearly 17-million-sq.-ft. urban complex that includes the Vdara Hotel & Spa. The foundation was poured in June 2006, and the Vdara was first completed entity with a December 1, 2009 grand opening. The overall project, a joint venture of MGM Resorts Intl. and Infinity World Development Corp. (a subsidiary of Dubai World), with a $9.2 billion price tag, is the largest, single, privately funded development in U.S. history. The Perini Building Co. was the lead contractor on the project, with Tishman Construction Corp. serving as the executive construction manager. Ryan Meyer, vice president and general manager of Wolfpack Sign Group (San Marcos, CA), explains how his company received the contract to handle $250,000 of ADA signage for the Vdara Hotel.
W e manufactured and installed the permanent code and wayfinding plaques for the 57-story Vdara Hotel & Spa -- the ice/vending, miscellaneous-amenity, stair IDs, hallway directionals, elevator maps and evacuation-plan signs – a total of just under 2,500 signs. These signs were spread out over 53 stories. We had 72 SIGNS OF THE TIMES / JUNE 2011
an eight-month lead time, which was shortened to roughly two months of manufacturing time, due to a delay in receiving some specialty materials. Overall, we were involved for approximately a year. Our portion of the nearly $40 million in signage contracts totaled roughly $250,000. We originally partnered with Mikohn Signs (which went out of business), but, eventually, we transfered our contract to Casino Sign and Lighting (which bought Mikohn’s assets). However, we worked directly with Tishman and MGM to finalize fabrication designs, manufacturing timelines and scheduling for installations. We partnered with Mikohn on the interior-signage portion of their contracts as part of their complete offerings to MGM. They specialized in slot toppers, but added several other
sign contracts to their Scope of Work in order to provide some added value to MGM through a single contact for project management. We worked closely with the designer, Two Twelve Assoc. (NYC), to align their creative designs with our manufacturing capabilities. A few design components required a value-engineering process in order to maintain the forecasted budgets presented by the owner. We knew going in that this project would require special attention from our entire staff in order to meet the tight timelines. This meant juggling last-minute design changes and re-engineering components to stay on track. I believe we accurately evaluated the project, but it certainly created a chaotic juggling act during the last few weeks of manufacturing and install.
These types of projects are typically management/design labor intense at the beginning and then shift to operations management/ install once the designs are turned over. We always take a systems approach to managing such toptier projects. For this particular project, our management/design team probably committed a consistent 25-30% of its time for the duration; manufacturing needed from 20-60% of our labor force, and installation required 100% of our installation staff. This type of interior, architectural sign project differed for us only in terms of quantity. It was one of our biggest-dollar projects at the time, and it certainly
impacted our workflow and labor force more than any other project. Typically 60% of our sales are ADA signage, with an additional 15-20% being signage related to the same projects – wayfinding signs, “rules” signs, marketing signage, etc. This ratio hasn’t really changed. The construction industry obviously took a huge beating and still hasn’t fully recovered, so the projects have thinned out. It’s 100 times harder to land the same number of projects/signs. We developed a marketing strategy long before the “crash” that has helped us gain marketshare over the years, and it’s the real reason for our continued success.
We were aggressively contacting potential clients to set up presentation meetings, regardless of whether they had a current project with signage needs. This generated a huge potential client list for us to track and maintain contact with, so, as they started projects, they contacted us for the signage. I was certainly impressed by how Perini and Tishman worked together to pull off the management and construction of CityCenter. This was the single, largest, private, building project ever completed on U.S. soil, and the jobsite was enormous. During the final months of construction, which was when we’re onsite for any project, the jobsite was a warzone. Every trade
ADA Sign Fabrication Details We used specialty materials to fabricate all of our Vdara ADA signs. We divided them into six categories, although the fabrication process was the same for all: ice/vending, stair IDs, hallway directionals, elevator maps, evacuation plans and miscellaneous amenity. The common components were: • Face panels made from recycled resin substrates, from 3form USA (Salt Lake City); www.3-form.com • Custom mounting pins, from Alvarado Micro Precision, Inc. (Vista, CA); www.alvaradomicro.com • Fused, nickel-silver backer panels made from recycled designer metal sheets, from Forms+Surfaces (Pittsburgh); www.forms-surfaces.com • Graphics, produced in-house We start by CNC-routing the recycled resin panels, and shearing down the metal sheets, to the specifications for the various sign types. Some sign types – typically directional signs, ice and vending signs -- require the recycled-resin panel to be back-painted a solid color; this process is completed prior to routing. Each piece is then cleaned and prepared for one or more graphic-application processes: screenprinting, painting and applied tactile graphics. If an image is repeated more than 20 times, it’s probably screenprinted. Some one-off elements were screenprinted to match a spec. Once the paints/inks cure, we move the pieces into our CNC department, where the rotary engraver applies the raised, tactile graphics and raster braille. Every directional sign had unique copy, which presented quite a challenge. Once all the graphic elements have been applied and fully set up, we move all the pieces into our assembly department. On large projects, we take an

assembly-line approach, which provides efficiency gains through labor specialization. For Vdara signs, assembly steps included fastening the custom pins and standoffs to the panels, and panel-to-panel assembly with VHB tape. Each directional sign had a 1.5-in.-long metal stud that stuck out in back. So, we had to develop a special packaging solution to prepare the signs for installation. We mobilized two crews of installers – all of our installers, with a foreman and 2-3 jouneymen – over several weeks, which included a final trip for punchlist items, and a final quality check by the owners’ rep and construction company. SIGNS OF THE TIMES / JUNE 2011 73
was scrambling to complete its contracts and keep up with the ever-growing punch-list generated by daily inspections. The Vdara Tower was probably the closest to completion, and we were fairly lucky with regards to our work area being fairly clear of other trades, but navigating the jobsite to get to the tower was quite a daily challenge. We proactively communicate with our partners, and I believe this was key to our successful execution of the contract. Interior signs aren’t subjected to local sign codes, per se, but they’re subject to federal ADA regulations, as well as state and local fire and building codes. The designs for this project’s signage underwent several design reviews by authorities having jurisdiction, and we were given the go-ahead just prior to fabrication. Our specialty is manufacturing all our ADA components in-house, and this project was no different (see sidebar). We purchased specialty materials to meet certain LEED Certification and design requirements, and we installed every sign we fabricated. We’ve been making ADA signs for 10+ years, so none of the necessary techniques were new, but taking on this project was a necessary step in our growth to becoming a large architectural sign manufacturer. 74 SIGNS OF THE TIMES / JUNE 2011
We maintain a strict set of guiding philosophies designed to keep every employee in line with our core values and turn obstacles into relationship-building opportunities. After we completed this project, we certainly took a long look at it to see if it was the type of project we’d like to continue to pursue. Having
spent the last few years chasing such projects, we’ve found the market flooded with low-bidders and companies just trying to keep their doors open. This has eroded the margins, and we subsequently set our sights on other markets during this ongoing downturn. Despite this, a few great companies still out there understand the value of partnering with their sign company to achieve a mutually beneficial goal. We pursue those leads aggressively. We learned this size of a project requires focused planning and contributing team members. We believe we’re really good at both of these, and we’ll leverage them in negotiating contracts. As for Vegas, there’s no way around it; it has its own way of doing things. We enjoyed working in an environment that is constantly pushing the envelope and focused on attaining a grandiose goal, safely, but as quickly as possible. The experience has made us a better company, and certainly better sign professionals. n
About Wolfpack Sign Group Wolfpack Sign Group (San Marcos, CA), a full-service architectural sign company, specializes in high-end ADA, code and amenity sign design, fabrication and installation. The original company, purchased by current owners Peter and Carolyn Wolf in 1995, quickly shed its mom-and-pop roots to become a well-known sign fabricator in San Diego County. The name change occurred in 2000 to support sales and marketing efforts in the building industry. The company has since completed thousands of multi-family/multi-unit, housing-signage projects. With contractor licenses in California and Nevada, and membership in appropriate labor unions, the company handles its own installations statewide. The company strives to be an expert in understanding federal, state and local building/fire codes that regulate interior signs. It also endeavors to partner with large, national, electric-sign companies that need assistance with custom-fabricated ADA interior signs.

– have filed a lawsuit in response to a Dallas sign ordinance that restricts commercial signage to 15% or less of windows or glass doors, or more than 25% of a building façade. The ordinance also limits commercial signage to the bottom third of windows and glass doors. Dallas Mayor Dwaine Caraway said the ordinance has “absolutely not” significantly affected small-business revenue. In fact, he claimed it has helped small-business owners in his district, where an over-proliferation of alcohol, tobacco and soda advertisements prompted concern about city signage. Caraway said the regulations were intended to improve aesthetics and prevent crime, though some small-business owners have circumvented this goal by using paper to cover offending signage. The ordinance shocked signshop owners like April Gilliland, a Fastsigns owner and plaintiff in the case. A sign inspector informed her of the new regulations weeks after the ordinance was passed in June 2008. “At first I thought he was kidding, just teasing me, but it was true,” she said. “I was blown away.” By November 2009, when the lawsuit was filed, at least 115 warnings or citations had been issued by the city, according to court documents filed by the Institute for Justice, a nonprofit, civil-liberties law firm that spearheaded the
lawsuit. The plaintiffs are seeking $1 in damages, legal fees and a repeal of the ordinance. Texas-chapter Institute for Justice lawyers didn’t return multiple calls for comment on the case, but court documents indicate the case is slated for trial this summer. Many scheduled trials never proceed or are delayed for years in a sluggish court system; Gilliland said the city threatened to back charge her for a year of noncompliance after the lawsuit was filed. The Institute of Justice’s lawyers, who claim the ordinance is a First Amendment violation, found inconsistent ordinance enforcement. In a press release, they noted, “In both Charlie Patel’s and Jaine London’s [two plaintiffs for the case] cases, entire shopping centers were targeted, while businesses just down the street continue to violate the ordinance and were not cited.” Caraway noted the impossibility of enforcing the ordinance equally in every district; enforcement may be “concentrated” in certain areas due to individual council members’ priorities and limited enforcement resources, he said. He conceded that “certain folks are thrown in the middle of the mix until the proper arrangements can be made” and admitted enforcement of new ordinances “can be unfortunate to some.” “They’re just picking on certain areas,” Gilliland said. “They never cited me, but, because I’m part of the lawsuit, they said they’re going
to charge $1,000 a day unless we drop the lawsuit.” She estimated she could owe $300,000. City officials said safety issues and clutter necessitated the ordinance in 2008, according to NBC DFW, a local news station. Later, in 2010, ABC-affiliate WFAA-TV reported that Caraway defended the ordinance, this time stating business owners could advertise in the Yellow Pages or online. Caraway seemed surprised to hear of a proposed six-figure fine for Gilliland. He said he doesn’t control enforcement of the ordinance, and wouldn’t be interested in pursuing such a large fine. Steve Jessup, owner of Fort Worth-based Delta Signs, said the 2008 ordinances add to an alreadyrestrictive sign code. He isn’t participating in the lawsuit, but has seen business suffer due to city sign ordinances: “These people that made these decisions obviously have never been in business for themselves, and they don’t know what impact it [a sign ordinance] has on small businesses . . . you’re just handcuffing the business owner.” Today, Gilliland said some customers are “absolutely terrified, wanting to do the right thing,” while others tell her they’ll take their chances with noncompliant signage. She believes clients are reluctant to commission larger projects, while the ordinance stands, for fear of losing their investment. ■ SIGNS OF THE TIMES / JUNE 2011 75
Across 151 Aprils A sign gallery captures the evolution of historic Civil War towns.
By Steve Aust
Istrife n April 1861, after years of over slavery and states’ rights, secessions from 11 Southern states escalated into war when Conf. Gen. Pierre Beauregard’s forces attacked and seized Fort Sumter in Charleston, SC. At the bloody battle of Bull Run (also known as the battle of Manassas), Gen. Thomas “Stonewall” Jackson’s Confederate forces soundly defeated the Union Army, which demonstrated the rebels’ resolve and affirmed a lengthy conflict. From the Fort Sumter attack until Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee’s surrender to Union Gen. Ulysses S. Grant at the Appomattox (VA) Courthouse in April 1865, more than 600,000 soldiers died. Memorials abound that chronicle the events and carnage. Although these monuments certainly preserve these historical legacies, they don’t define local culture. This gallery marks the 150th anniversary of the Civil War’s onset, but doesn’t focus solely on commemorative signage. While it’s important to honor the past, celebrating the present seems an equally appropriate tribute.

Although its importance as a seaport has waned, Charleston, SC, remains a culturally vibrant city. Galleries and theatres abound, and the Spoleto Arts Festival brings a world-class roster of musical, dance and dramatic performances every spring. Charleston-based Miller Signs has played a key role in helping various gathering places “tell the world with signs.” Miller Signs produced this gleaming exterior blade sign and marquee for a Charleston cinema multiplex. Light-blue neon tubing reflects the baby-blue school color of the Citadel, a nearby military college.
The Battle of Antietam, near Frederick, MD, left more than 26,000 soldiers dead, wounded or missing. Many towns with Civil War legacies have blossomed into tourism meccas with upscale inns, art galleries and restaurants. This sign identifies an upscale Asian bistro in Frederick.
Miller Signs fabricated this pylon and building sign for Mt. Pleasant’s (SC) Liberty Tap Room.
Built in 1927, the Sottile Theatre served as a movie house until the 1970s, when it was donated to the College of Charleston. Today, it’s a venue for collegiate performances and functions. Miller Signs fabricated its sign, which nostalgically acknowledges its big-screen heyday. SIGNS OF THE TIMES / JUNE 2011 77
After the war, Chattanooga remained a vital railway hub for nearly a century – as evidenced by the famous song, “Chattanooga Choo-Choo.” Although the Choo-Choo stopped running in the 1970s, it remains a popular tourist destination. According to Kerry Buckman, marketing director for the Chattanooga Choo-Choo, its neon sign, fabricated in NYC in the late 1970s, was installed by Chattanooga’s Ortwein Signs.
Led by Gen. Ulysses S. Grant, Union forces expelled Braxton Bragg’s Confederate troops from Chattanooga in November 1863. These signs, which were installed as part of Tennessee’s Civil War Trails program, chronicle the city’s significance as a wartime rail hub.

Jim Oliver’s Smoke House and Trading Post has remained popular with Chattanooga’s denizens for more than three decades, thanks to its barbecue, fudge and folksy paraphernalia. Its brilliant neon signs haven’t hurt either. The defeat of John Pemberton’s Confederate forces at the hands of Grant’s soldiers in the Union siege of Vicksburg (MS) in Summer 1863 served as a turning point for the Union. Confederate forces surrendered that July 4. The city reportedly didn’t celebrate Independence Day again until World War II. Regina Gailani, proprietor of Vicksburg’s Art and Soul Gallery, graciously provided this photo of her Vicksburg gallery.
It’s only appropriate to conclude a Civil War gallery with a photo from Appomattox. This traditionally painted wall mural, which graces a downtown Appomattox bookstore, appropriately represents small-town charm. SIGNS OF THE TIMES / JUNE 2011 79

EDITORIALLY SPEAKING
“I suspect ‘normal’ sign companies hold ambivalent views about sign brokers”
By Wade Swormstedt
If it’s not Brokered . . . A look at this barely publicized sign-industry segment One mint julep was the cause of it all. – The Clovers, 1952
I(andreceived one phone call, initially irate, early in April it wasn’t even from a pro-neon freedom fighter). The
caller, who’d received our CAS/Commercial State of the Industry (SOI) survey (the results of which will appear in our August issue), was insulted that we didn’t have a classification for sign brokers. I explained that we actually didn’t want responses from brokers (or wholesalers, for that matter) because that would be double dipping – counting sign sales twice. But much more importantly, he complained that sign brokers receive no media coverage. He’s right. I explained why. We don’t know you. So, I wrote a “Sign brokers wanted” piece to headline a recent, bi-weekly, www.signweb.com newsletter. I explained my plan to conduct a sign-broker survey. Wow. The responses poured in. Immediately. Others must have felt like my caller. Most interestingly, virtually everyone had a slightly different business model. Here’s a sampling of the replies I received. I hope these will elicit even more: “I service the creative needs of some 250 new-car dealerships by designing ad campaigns, web work, window painting and POP materials. I have been at this for 22 years, ever since I left management of a large Chevy store. If someone asked me what I do, one of the last things I would mention would be that I am a ‘sign broker’, but, in all honesty, I guess I am one in that I sub out many sign projects to other sign professionals.” – Preston McCall “I have operated as a ‘sign broker’ for 23 years, although I consider myself more of an architect/GC for custom-electric signs. If the term ‘broker’ implies a middleman who does nothing but sales, it’s inaccurate from my perspective. For example, our scope of work includes surveys, design, sales, project management, pulling permits and collecting money. We are also licensed, bonded and carry insurance, which may make us different.” – Susan Haines “I’ve been an owner/operator in the fabrication and installation of billboards for 34 years. With the industry’s slowdown in the past few years, I recently began brokering used billboards across the country.” – John L. Black “I provide graphic-design services for corporate identification, direct mail, commercial printing and sign design/production. I broker the signface production: sandblasting, digital printing, any custom-metal fabrication, and finishing.” – Jimmy Jones “I have been brokering signage since 1988. I may have sold more custom signs in this city than any other single person during this time. Brokering the fabrication 112 SIGNS OF THE TIMES / JUNE 2011
never hindered me from selling some of the largest on-premise displays in the city. We install and maintain with our own equipment and crews” – Vince Klusty “Brokering gives us the freedom to partner with wholesale fabricators, sometimes several on one job, to use the best fabrication method/material. Our job is to do right by the end customer, by ourselves and by the wholesale partner.” – Wayne Kosterman (formerly worked with Henry Spanjer) “I ‘think’ I am a signbroker, but I’m not sure if ‘web-only’ makes me a further sub-category.” – Andy Gruenbaum “I do all my own design work, and I primarily focus on message centers and the attached signs. I consider myself a message-center specialist.” – Tom Baker “I am a sign broker, but I prefer the term ‘owner’s rep.’ I worked for three sign companies and have sold signs for 30 years. When new management and production strategies created a ‘signs could be by made by monkeys’ mentality, I left. Large clients came to me and asked me to continue running their sign programs. It wasn’t my intent to become a broker.” – Kelly Reid “The question is the inconsistent and broad definition of the ‘sign broker’ business model. We feel we took the best business practices of traditional sign companies, sign-management firms and brokers and melded them into a newer model that brings added value to customers.” – Bill Lockett “Our firm is a pure architectural signage broker. I would say there are fewer than 75 pure brokers in the U.S. that focus on the architectural market.” – Travis Veigas. “We manufactured incandescent-lightbulb message centers from 1984-1996, but when LED message centers came to market, we couldn’t keep up with the Chinese. Since then, we shut down our facilities, downsized employees and now broker almost every aspect of the signage industry.” – Derek Sharpe I suspect “normal” sign companies hold ambivalent views about sign brokers. You like them when you work with them. You dislike them when you compete against them. I suspect few sign companies are neutral about them. I see parallels to the sign franchises. Perhaps similar sentiments hold true. I look forward to presenting a future sign-broker report. n
