Working with our wholesale partner, Identity Group, SignWorks completed the project and delivered revised 4th floor evacuation maps to our client, The CORE Group. They are a Santa Clara based building contractor who made some additional renovations to the 4th Floor of the 75 Hawthorne building in San Francisco. Since our company was the original sign vendor when Turner Construction renovated the building in 2017, we were asked to replicate the evacuation maps we had done recently for other floors of the building. Our client sent us the revised 4th Floor core drawings and ordered four revised evacuation maps one sized at 19” by 39” and the others sized at 15” by 33”. The approved artwork was sent to identity group in mid-September and they shipped the finished maps directly to our client about 10 days ago.
San Francisco Fire Department has very strict guidelines regarding the lettering size, as well as corridor and symbol sizing criteria. These factors ultimately dictate the minimum size of the smaller stair maps. The client was given full sized and scaled art to make the paper copies (two sets of 11” by 17” scaled) as needed by the Fire Department for review and approval.
Identity Group provided custom thermal molded ADA (Americans with Disabilities) signs for this project. Their custom ADA signs feature braille/tactile as an integral part of the actual sheeting material making the finished product very unique. Because we are not installing the signs we’ll need to post the actual pictures after the fact and the client sends them to us. We’re including a sample of a previously fabricated map so you can see what the finished signs look like.
