Signage Project Spotlight: Rebranding the Seattle Convention Center Arch

Plumb Signs Inc. is proud to have been a key part of transforming the Seattle Convention Center. This special project highlights our commitment to creating custom signs that connect with the community. Previously called the Washington State Convention Center, this well-known building is now named the "Arch" to reflect Seattle's changing identity. This project marks an important step in architectural signage, capturing the city's lively spirit. The convention center now features two main areas—the well-loved "Arch" and the new "Summit."

Key Achievements

The signage project for the Seattle Convention Center unfolded in two thoughtfully orchestrated phases, reflecting Plumb Signs dedication to crafting exceptional exterior and wayfinding signs.

Phase 1

• Building Signs: We made and put up eye-catching signs that help people recognize the brand.
• Door Signs: We installed modern and stylish door signs to keep the branding consistent throughout the building.
  
  

Phase 2

• Parking Garage Signs: We created and installed easy-to-follow signs to help guests find their way and have a better experience.
• Building Exterior Signs: We made sure the building's outside signs perfectly match its new look.
