When businesses are set farther back from a busy roadway, visibility becomes a major part of the customer experience. A well designed monument sign can help direct traffic, improve tenant recognition, and elevate the overall appearance of a commercial property at the same time.
For Courtyards of River Heights at 1580 Taylor Ave. in Winnipeg, the goal was to create more than a standard tenant directory. This custom LED lit monument sign was designed to give the property a stronger visual presence during both daytime and nighttime hours while keeping the layout clean and easy to read.
The sign features illuminated tenant panels paired with a bold vertical architectural element that helps the structure stand out from passing traffic along Taylor Avenue. Warm integrated lighting adds visibility after dark while complementing the modern look of the development.
Projects like this highlight how commercial signage can become part of a property's identity rather than simply functioning as a list of tenant names. The result is a sign that improves wayfinding while contributing to the overall presentation of the site.
This monument sign was fabricated and installed by Electra Sign Ltd. in Winnipeg, Manitoba.

Electra Sign Ltd. fabricated and installed custom LED-lit channel letter signage for ProActive Massage Therapy at 567 St. Anne’s Rd in Winnipeg, MB.
While the finished signage appears clean and straightforward, projects like this often involve thoughtful refinements behind the scenes. When translating a logo into illuminated channel letters, certain design elements sometimes need adjustment to maintain readability, balanced illumination, and long-term fabrication performance.
For ProActive Massage Therapy, subtle refinements to portions of the logo helped preserve the personality of the brand while improving visibility from the street during both daytime and evening conditions. The darker outlines and clean white LED illumination created strong contrast against the building’s warm exterior finishes, helping the storefront stand out without feeling overly bright or aggressive.
The signage also reflects the atmosphere ProActive Massage Therapy aims to create for clients. Their clinic focuses on honest treatment, supportive care, and helping people move and feel better in a welcoming environment. Carrying that approachable feeling into the exterior branding was an important part of the overall project.
In addition to the building signage, the project also included updated illuminated pylon signage for the property, helping improve visibility for both vehicle and pedestrian traffic along St. Anne’s Road.
Projects like this are a good example of how effective signage combines branding, lighting, fabrication, and architectural integration into a single finished product.

Clear wayfinding plays a bigger role in commercial spaces than most people realize. At Terracon Business Park, a large multi-tenant campus on the east side of Winnipeg, well-designed directory signage helps keep daily movement simple and efficient.
Electra Sign Ltd. fabricated and installed a series of non-lit monument directory signs at 1 Terracon Place. These signs were designed to guide tenants and visitors through the business park with clarity, using clean layouts, clear typography, and logical unit ranges such as 78 to 106 and 30 to 58. Directional elements were carefully planned to align with internal roadways and access points, including connections to Dugald Road.
Terracon Business Park spans approximately 105 acres and includes over 400,000 square feet of flex space for office and light industrial tenants. With multiple buildings, landscaped grounds, and a steady flow of traffic throughout the day, intuitive navigation is essential. These monument signs contribute to a more seamless experience across the property.
From a fabrication standpoint, the focus was on precision and durability. Each sign was built with sharp detailing and consistent finishes to complement the clean, professional look of the park. While the signs are non-illuminated, their visibility and readability were carefully considered to ensure they perform effectively in natural lighting conditions.
Wayfinding signage is often one of the first touchpoints visitors have with a property. At Terracon Business Park, these monument directory signs support the overall environment by making navigation straightforward and stress-free.
Electra Sign Ltd. continues to design, fabricate, and install custom commercial signage solutions across Winnipeg and Manitoba, with a focus on long-term performance and practical design.
