The University of Pittsburgh’s Center for Vaccine Research needed our help to brand the entrances on two of their different floors. We worked closely with them to bring their design to life and installed two custom-made lobby signs.
In the photos you can see the unique, multi-dimensional design we created for our client. To see more projects like this, visit our Lobby Signs album on our Flickr page!
The Center for Vaccine Research activities span across basic research on molecular mechanisms of infectious diseases to the development of diagnostics, therapeutics, and vaccines. It supports interdisciplinary research efforts across the University of Pittsburgh and UPMC focused on the tremendous advances in the diagnosis and treatment of many medical conditions and illnesses that remain a major threat in our world today.
To ensure the signage met the standards of our clients, we worked extensively with CVR and a partner fabricator. We presented several options with our client until they were more than satisfied with the design. We were able to fabricate the signs by routing the letters “The Center for Vaccine Research” out of ¼” matte black PVC and placing them in three separate rows. Each row was mounted off the wall at a different depth thus creating a “stepped” effect 
that was unique and eye-catching. The total dimension of the lobby signs was 58” X 26.5”, the perfect size to create an impact and brand the CVR Department.
Our client at CVR was very happy with the entire process and the finished product, commenting that Spark showed, “Outstanding customer service and attention to detail from the initial contact through the installation process. We would highly recommend their team.”
