Community Gateway Signs
Community gateway signs are signs or features located at the entrance of a community or neighbourhood. They proudly display the name of the community, its emblem or logo, and other identifying information, such as its location or population. These signs are often designed to reflect the style and character of the community, and to serve as a visual welcome to visitors and residents alike. They also help to establish a sense of place and identity, and to promote a sense of community spirit.
Hi Signs worked closely with the Town of Hardisty council, with the intention of designing entry signage which reflects their values and heritage. Located in the central part of Alberta, Hardisty is known for it’s hard working residents, and primarily known for its agriculture, oil and natural gas industries. Through design cycles, we landed on an entry feature which pay tribute to black gold (oil), industrial metal work, and wheat. All the elements combined represent the community of Hardisty with integrity.
