About the sign:   Developed by an internal creative team, Brown Shoe Company’s new logo was designed to take on a 3 dimensional “sculptural” look when transferred to these stunning lobby signs.  Through the use of a combination of materials and finish techniques, Landmark Sign Company helped to achieve the vision for the new logo by using vertically brushed, custom cut stainless steel dimensional letters and logo fastened to starfire glass panels.  The edges of the stainless logo pieces were given a slight curvature to allow light to hit those edges and create the look of a sculpture.  Plywood was installed behind the walls to help hold the signs – each weighing over 100 pounds – which were mounted on brushed stainless standoffs to give these signs a truly magnificent look!
