Brand Your Property with These Dynamic Must-Dos!
Your signage isn’t just informational or code required—it’s a direct extension of your brand. Whether it’s a monument at the entryway or a unit door, every sign is an opportunity to tell your story. Cadena at the Falls’ brand is rustic and embraces nature with Corten elements, wood, and western-inspired elements. Here are 10 essential tips to elevate your branding through signage:
-
Be Consistent
Use a unified color palette, logo treatment, and typography throughout your signage to reinforce brand recognition.
-
Prioritize Readability
No matter how beautiful your design, it must be clear and easy to read from various distances and lighting conditions. It also must meet the code, so all parameters must be considered.
-
Use Quality Materials
Durable, well-finished materials speak volumes about your brand’s credibility and attention to detail. Select materials that work with the interior while considering exterior elements.
-
Incorporate Brand Personality
From playful icons to minimalist geometry, let your brand’s tone shine in the visual details of each sign.
-
Highlight Key Moments
Use signage to amplify high-traffic or meaningful touchpoints—like entrances, amenities, or community features.
-
Blend with Architecture & Interiors
Design signage to complement the built environment. Think of it as an extension of the architecture and interiors, not an afterthought.
-
Use Lighting Strategically
Backlighting, spotlights, or ambient glow can elevate signage at night and set a distinctive mood. Use lighting to elevate the community both day & night.
-
Introduce Patterns and Textures
Add depth and authenticity by incorporating textures or motifs inspired by your brand’s surroundings or story.
-
Find Opportunities to Brand
A logo wall within an amenity space, markers throughout the community, Instagram photo ops, or even custom building elevator floor tiles like Cadena!
-
Tell a Story
Each sign should reflect a piece of your brand’s narrative, making your entire space feel cohesive and intentional.
Done right, signage does more than inform—it invites, inspires, and defines the experience. This one element allows you to brand throughout the community on every door, amenity, and hallway! Let it speak for you, even before anyone walks in the door.
