Four Seasons Hotel > From concept to creation

Objective
In the fall of 2005, a design client came to us with a unique challenge to produce a very specialized, yet complicated, sign system for a soon to open Four Seasons Hotel in St. Louis, Missouri. The opening date was just five weeks away. Due to the time crunch it fell upon Creative Impressions to work out all the fabrication details.

Strategy
Creative Impressions' first hurdle was to create a three dimensional mock-up from a two dimensional drawing provided by the design client. Our design also included fabrication of various sign types; fine cabinetry, laminating of specialty overlays, recessed acrylic lettering and LED lighting. At the same time we were planning mounting and installation solutions.
Results
By remaining flexible our designers and fabricators were able to, in essence, work on the fly, by fine-tuning the design and fabrication processes. We transported all the required signs some 800 miles, installed, hung, and mounted them to meet the very limited deadline. Our design client received kudos and raves for their project.
