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.

Not every signage project comes with ideal conditions. Some require a bit more problem-solving—and that was exactly the case at Prairie Trail Physiotherapy on Taylor Avenue in Winnipeg.
Working within a compact bulkhead, this project involved integrating a detailed logo and clean typography into a limited footprint without sacrificing legibility, especially at night. With LED-lit channel letters, achieving even illumination across intricate shapes can be a challenge. Too much light and finer details wash out. Too little and clarity is lost. This one required a careful balance.
From fabrication through installation, the focus was on precision. Each letter and logo element had to be proportioned and lit in a way that maintained consistency across the entire sign face. The result is a clean, readable installation that holds its presence after dark without overpowering the building façade.
Prairie Trail Physiotherapy is known for its hands-on, active approach to recovery, focusing on movement, education, and personalized treatment plans. Their team works closely with patients to help them understand injuries, build strength, and prevent future issues through guided care and exercise.
That same attention to detail is something we aim to reflect in the signage we build. In this case, it meant ensuring that every part of their brand, from the wheat icon to the letterforms, remains sharp, balanced, and visible at any time of day.
Located at 1190 Taylor Ave, the finished sign fits naturally within the architecture while still standing out where it matters. It is a strong example of how thoughtful design and precise fabrication can turn spatial constraints into a refined final result.
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.
