Pylon Sign with Digital Display

A Complex Problem

Dr. Anne Anderson High School and Community Centre in Edmonton serves both educational and community functions, requiring an effective way to communicate events and notices to students and local residents. The challenge was to design a signage solution that not only fit the aesthetic and functional needs of both the school and community center but also allowed for easy updates and clear visibility of information.
 

A Simple Solution

Hi Signs tackled this challenge by designing and implementing a double-sided digital display integrated into a pylon sign, utilizing cloud-based programming for easy content management. The solution included handling all aspects of the project from permit applications and engineering to structure design and the actual fabrication and installation of the sign. Additionally, Hi Signs provided comprehensive commissioning and software training to ensure the staff could manage the sign effectively, along with offering ongoing service and maintenance.
 

The Result

The installation of the pylon sign with a digital display at Dr. Anne Anderson High School and Community Centre significantly enhanced the way the institution communicates with its community. The digital sign allows for real-time updates, ensuring that both students and residents are informed about upcoming events and notices efficiently. This new system has not only improved communication but also strengthened the community’s engagement by keeping everyone well-informed and involved in local activities.
