Our work is rooted in the conviction that great signage design is essential to the success of all projects, regardless of budget or prominence.

Whitney Veigas works thoughtfully and strategically to create custom signage solutions that meet your unique needs. We partner with you to design beautiful and functional signage systems that support and reinforce your brand while complementing your architectural space. When your program needs implementation, we can bring it to life through our detail-focused, custom fabrication and installation process for a complete turnkey solution, ensuring that your project stays on budget and on schedule.

Turnkey Solutions

Whitney Veigas holds a unique position in the sign industry as a true design-build firm that places equal emphasis on design quality and efficient implementation. With our turnkey process, you receive high-quality signage that is delivered at a lower total cost, in less time, and with fewer headaches than with traditional methods.

Design Services

Design is at the heart of what we do. Our multi-step approach involves research and discovery, navigation and site analysis, conceptual design, and construction documentation. Throughout this process, we balance each project’s aesthetic, cost, and functional requirements to achieve a thoughtfully designed solution that reinforces your brand and complements your architecture. Whether it’s a single sign or a comprehensive program, good design is essential to its success.

Large Format Graphics & Experiential Design

Whitney Veigas has decades of experience designing custom murals and large-scale graphics. With a thoughtful balance of typography, imagery, color, and form, these elements will enliven your spaces, enhance your brand, and animate your culture.

Branding

Our design work goes beyond signage—we create cohesive brand identities that leave a lasting impression. Our design team specializes in crafting visual identities that reflect your brand’s essence, ensuring consistency across all touchpoints. From logo development to full-scale signage systems, we blend creativity with strategy to design solutions that reinforce, enhance, and strengthen your brand presence. Whether you’re building a new identity or refreshing an existing one, we will bring your vision to life with thoughtful, impactful design solutions.

Master Planning

Wayfinding programs are a complex system of verbal and visual communication that require a thorough understanding of the project site, the built environment, and user psychology. Our master planning efforts analyze your site experience, identify the unique challenges and opportunities therein, and create a strategic program designed to eliminate confusion, increase confidence, and create a cohesive user experience.

Donor Recognition

At Whitney Veigas, we have decades of experience working with advancement and development teams to create holistic donor recognition programs. Our design team will collaborate with you to find the right recognition solutions, whether large, small, traditional, or cutting-edge. Regardless of the size, complexity, or prominence, our solutions are designed to celebrate the timeless spirit of human generosity.

Installation

Our implementation team has the skill and experience to handle the most challenging field conditions. We also know that working on job sites requires more than just a ‘nuts-and-bolts’, technical understanding of the construction process. Attention to detail, accuracy, communication, and safety are all benchmarks of success at Whitney Veigas.
