The Brief
Clayton Church Homes required a coordinated signage refresh across its aged-care and community facilities. The aim was to establish a consistent brand identity across different locations while improving building visibility and helping residents, visitors and staff navigate each site.
Signs SA was engaged to manage the signage requirements across the sites, from initial surveys and production through to installation.
The Challenge
Delivering a consistent signage program across multiple facilities requires careful planning, particularly when working around occupied aged-care environments.
Each location can have different building layouts, access requirements and installation conditions. The challenge was to coordinate the work safely while ensuring the new signage maintained a consistent appearance across all sites.
The Approach
Signs SA planned the work by location, coordinating site surveys, approvals and installation access before manufacturing the signage.
Producing the branded elements through a central production facility helped maintain consistency across the program, while location-based planning supported a coordinated approach to installation.
Signage Production
The project incorporated several signage formats to support identification, visibility and communication across the facilities.
The scope included building identification signage, fabricated and illuminated signs, an LED screen and supporting rebrand elements. Together, these components helped carry the updated identity across different buildings and site environments.
Multi-Site Coordination
A multi-site signage program requires consistency without overlooking the practical needs of each individual location.
Signs SA coordinated production and installation requirements across the sites, allowing the signage to follow a consistent brand direction while accounting for different building conditions and access requirements.
Installation and Delivery
Installation was planned around the needs of each location, with attention to approvals, site access and safe work practices in occupied care environments.
By coordinating the work by location and managing production centrally, Signs SA supported a consistent signage refresh across the Clayton Church Homes network.
The Outcome
The project brought together building identification, illuminated signage, digital display and supporting brand elements across multiple South Australian sites.
The coordinated approach helped Clayton Church Homes apply a consistent identity across its facilities while supporting visibility and navigation for residents, visitors and staff.
What This Project Demonstrates
Multi-site signage projects require more than consistent design. They demand coordinated production, careful scheduling and an understanding of the environments where signage will be installed.
The Clayton Church Homes project demonstrates Signs SA’s approach to managing signage across multiple locations, bringing together site surveys, centralised production and coordinated installation to deliver a consistent brand experience.
