About the County of Los Angeles Sign Project

The County of Los Angeles oversees thousands of facilities, from administrative offices and courthouses to public service buildings and community centers. Each one needs signage that communicates professionalism, accessibility, and civic pride.

Over the years, Landmark Signs has delivered a wide range of solutions — including Directional and Wayfinding Signs, Monument Signs, Lobby and 3D Signs, Directories, and High-Rise Building Signage — all tailored to the county’s diverse locations and audiences.

Each project brings its own set of challenges — navigating strict permitting requirements, ensuring ADA compliance, and adapting to a variety of architectural styles. Our team handles each stage with care, from design and fabrication to installation, guaranteeing that every sign meets both practical needs and visual goals.

By focusing on functionality, consistency, and long-term performance, we’ve helped the County of Los Angeles maintain a strong, unified image across departments — one that communicates reliability, efficiency, and civic pride.

Project Goals and Challenges

The County of Los Angeles needed signage that could do more than identify a location — it needed to serve the public, reflect authority, and stand the test of time. Each sign had to contribute to a seamless public experience while upholding the professionalism of the county’s image.

Here’s what we focused on:

Clear Communication: Directional and wayfinding signs designed for intuitive navigation, ensuring visitors reach their destinations with ease.
Civic Identity: Monument and high-rise signs that project trust, authority, and permanence, reflecting the integrity of government institutions.
Accessibility: ADA-compliant designs that support inclusivity and accessibility for all visitors.
Durability and Performance: Materials and finishes chosen to endure daily use and California’s diverse weather conditions, minimizing upkeep.
Consistency Across Sites: A unified visual language applied to all locations ensuring a cohesive public identity.

Each installation was a collaboration between form and function, meeting the county’s practical needs while enhancing the professionalism and visual impact of every space.

Public Signage Features & Design Approach

Our design approach for the County of Los Angeles focused on clarity, consistency, and civic presence. Every sign was created to both inform and inspire confidence, contributing to an environment that feels organized, accessible, and welcoming.

Exterior Signage: Presence and Professionalism

Monument Signs mark key entrances with permanence and distinction, giving public buildings an unmistakable presence.
High-Rise Building Signs ensure visibility and recognition across the skyline, representing government institutions with confidence and integrity.

Each sign is built for long-term performance and designed to reinforce the county’s image as organized, professional, and accessible to all.

Interior Signage: Guidance and Experience

Lobby and 3D Signs create polished, professional spaces that help staff and visitors feel supported.
Directories and Directional Signs simplify navigation through large, complex environments, ensuring residents, jurors, and guests reach their destinations quickly.

Every interior element was designed with clarity, consistency, and accessibility in mind — helping transform large civic spaces into environments that feel approachable, efficient, and well-organized.

Transforming Public Spaces Through Signage

Every public building tells a story — about service, accessibility, and community. For the County of Los Angeles, that story is one of trust and civic pride. Our signage solutions helped shape that narrative through clarity, craftsmanship, and consistency.

Inside, lobby and 3D signage made spaces feel approachable and organized. Outside, Monument and High-Rise Signs projected confidence and authority. Each installation reflected a county committed to professionalism and public trust.

Together, these elements have transformed public spaces into cohesive, user-friendly environments that enhance both function and perception. Visitors now navigate with ease, while employees benefit from improved organization and visibility — a true reflection of the county’s dedication to serving its residents effectively.

The Role of Signage in Public Service

In government environments, signage isn’t just a design element — it’s a communication tool that builds trust. Clear, consistent signs help residents feel confident and informed while navigating complex public systems.

From directional signs that simplify courthouse visits to monument signs that symbolize civic authority, every piece contributes to a smoother public experience. High-quality signage reassures visitors that they’re in capable hands and reflects a government’s commitment to transparency, service, and community.

At Landmark Signs, we take pride in designing signage that serves both form and function — helping public institutions communicate with the people they represent.

Lessons Learned and Lasting Takeaways

A decade of collaboration with the County of Los Angeles has taught us that clarity, durability, and consistency are the pillars of effective public signage.

Each sign type, whether it’s a Directional Sign in a busy hall or a High-Rise Building Sign visible across downtown, contributes to the same mission: making public service accessible, professional, and efficient.

The key takeaway? When signage is done thoughtfully, it becomes more than a label — it becomes a lasting expression of trust between an institution and its community.
