Welcome and leaving signs
Presentation prepared by: Julia Jackson

design options
These are the design options for the welcome and leaving signs, with two choices for each.
The options 1 on the left can be considered a pair, and the options 2 on the right as another pair.
That said, everything in these designs is fully customizable—if you prefer elements from different
options, we can mix and match to create the perfect combination for you.

Option 1: No Welcome Option 2: Welcome

Mockups
Border options
These mockups illustrate potential border options for the sign: no border, top-only, three sides,
or all sides. I will be using the no border option for the remainder of the presentation, but this
is something to consider for the final installation.

Production
During my research, I came across a company called Art Sign Works that has produced a variety
of indoor and outdoor signage including city welcome signs like the one in Coos Bay, Oregon.
Here’s some information from their website:
“We make custom carved 2.5-D, 3-D and engraved dimensional signs and plaques. These are
fabricated from High-Density-Urethane (HDU) wood composite; extremely tough engraved
High-density Color-Core Polyethelene (HDPE); wood (cedar, redwood, mahogany, oak, maple,
cherry; metal-coated HDU (brass, bronze, copper, silver-nickel, stainless steel, and aluminum;
and gold- and silver-leaf gilded HDU. Text, numbers, logos, art and borders can be higher than
the background or engraved (carved into it), or both.
OUR SIGNS HAVE LONG LIFE & MINIMAL MAINTENANCE. We use the very best materials and
manufacturing processes to create signs which have a very long life (20+ years for HDU Signs)
and require very little maintenance. We provide a warranty of 2 years, and we expect our HDU
and indoor wood signs to last for several decades. We use exclusively Ultra Low VOC Matthews
automotive-type 2-part polyurethane acrylic paint and clear-coats , which are UV and graffitti
resistance, so there is very little fading when the sign is exposed to direct sunlight, and graffiti can
usually be cleaned off with acetone. Matthews paints cost $200/gallon, compared to house
paints which cost $30/gallon that most other sign companies use. Matthews MAP will last
20 years or more before repainting. We use 1-Shot Low VOC Oil-Based High Gloss Lettering
Enamels for text and artwork. 1Shot is simply the best (and most expensive) lettering enamel
in the world. It costs $250/gallon.”
Entrance Sign for the
City of Coos Bay, Oregon
We made two of these very large
(12 ft high) entrance signs for the
City of Coos Bay, Oregon. They were
carved in 3-D relief from 20 lb/ft3
High-Density-Urethane (HDU).
The sign was prime coated and
painted with Matthews and 1-Shot
sign enamels, using an airbrush
and artist brush. The entire sign
was then coated with 2 coats of
long-lasting Matthews polyurethane
acrylic clear. This plaque will last over
a decade in the marine climate
without the paint fading.
Complimentary Image Upgrades
To create a more cohesive and professional look across your entire branding, I’ve redesigned
the images you currently use for email signature and website. I’ve also provided additional layouts,
with and without the city slogan, to ensure you have versatile options for future use. This is included
as an additional courtesy at no cost to you. I understand that, as a city, there may be times when
budgeting for a professional graphic designer isn't feasible, but this rebrand is important to me—
not just as the designer, but as a local who sees the real-world impact. I'm always happy to lend
a hand free of charge, within reason, to help maintain consistency and support your efforts.

The updated black text version may appear unchanged, but there was a minor alignment issue with
the original image. While I prefer the color version with 'City of' to maintain consistency, both options
are included for your consideration.

These additional layouts are designed for situations when the main website image is too rectangular

Final thoughts
Thank you for the opportunity to provide input on the design for Shady Cove’s welcome and
leaving signs. My preference is for the color Option 2 for both. I believe they stand out and would
create a strong visual impact, something that people would be excited to take a photo with. For
material, I recommend a carved or 2.5D/3D painted outdoor sign like those from Art Sign Works,
as I feel it would provide the right durability and aesthetic for the project.
Please note that all material and production company recommendations provided are for
guidance only. I am not responsible for any legal, financial, or operational issues that may
arise from the choice of materials or the company selected for the production of the sign.
It is the responsibility of the client to conduct their own research and due diligence when
selecting materials and production vendors.
Next steps include providing your feedback and letting me know if you’d like any changes.
I’ve included the files for the design options, as well as the additional complimentary image
upgrades. I’m happy to make any reasonable adjustments so that the final result makes
the best first impression for those entering Shady Cove.
thank you
