L.A. Live's Nokia Theatre changes name to Microsoft Theater with New Signtech Installation

Signtech unveiled a new signage installation for the Microsoft Theater at the 7,100-seat concert and special events venue at L.A. Live. Signtech fabricated and installed the Microsoft letterset as phase one of a multiphase rebrand project to transform the dining and entertainment hub’s 40,000-square-foot outdoor plaza into “Microsoft Square”. All signs for the Microsoft Theater and Microsoft Square rebrand were designed, engineered and fabricated 100% in-house at Signtech’s San Diego facility and our in-house crews installed the signs to provide complete turn-key service.

Signtech’s design expertise was crucial in achieving the true color of Microsoft’s logo. The 10’ logo faces had to be constructed of the right material and have a precise lighting temperature to accomplish Microsoft’s signature colors. A custom bracket system was created to hang the 6’1 Microsoft letters over edge of the theater to appear as if they were floating.

The balance of this multiphase projects includes blade signs, box office signage, VIP entrance signage and an oversized roof logo. In order for the logo to be seen by cameras in helicopters flying over the venue during events the Microsoft logo had to be 50’x50’. To ensure safety, the theater’s structural engineer was consulted to approve that roof can hold the oversized logo and that the attachment methods were could withstand high winds. A large crane will be used to hoist the 50’ logo onto the roof to set them in place. Once the roof signs is installed the multiphase project will be complete and the Microsoft Theatre and Microsoft Square rebrand will be complete.

Swing stages were used to attach the letters to the building.

Dignity Health - Mercy Medical Center

This 36” lettersets were installed on a nine-story medical center. The medical center provides acute care medical services. Buildings with acute care services require extra precautions due to the patients’ lack of mobility in the event of an emergency. To ensure patient safety, Signtech was required to submit their install plan to the Office of Statewide Health Planning & Development (OSHPD) for review. OSHPD reviewed the plan to approve the letter attachments and confirm that the power would not be disconnected at any point during the install. Signtech successfully got OSHPD’s approval and smoothly completed the install.
