Signs in High Places

The Baird regional headquarters, located in Louisville, Kentucky needed a complete restoration, with the project consisting of a multi-elevation, full facade restoration and three enormous wall signs on a prominent city high-rise. With the building located in the heart of downtown Louisville, there was no margin for error and everything from the survey, the restoration of the facade, to the final product was done with precise and sound execution.

Wall Restoration

Throughout the rebrand, Identiti maintained a meticulous quality control program which focused on wall restoration for each site. With each location came a different unique challenge in terms of the materials that were to be restored such as: drywood, marble, wood, wallpaper, etc. We worked with our GC’s to maintain a high level of restoration to like new conditions from painting to install repairs.

“We needed a partner for a corporate rebrand project that included our regional headquarters, which featured high-rise signage that required significant restoration. From code research and permitting to building access and special safety requirements, Identiti made the process easy by coordinating every detail and making sure there were no surprises. They were a true partner from beginning to end.”
