WHY SIGNJIVE?
"Failing to plan is planning to fail." - Benjamin Franklin
SignJive was born from the belief that signage, landscaping, lighting and irrigation for multifamily properties don't have to be disconnected.
Creating a plan for how these elements should work together helps us to achieve the best results for our customers.
We promise to design the most unique property entrances in the market today, with each project meticulously planned and executed.
From signage to landscaping to irrigation and lighting, we design, plan and execute or coordinate on your behalf.
Our expert designers and planners work with your architect early in the planning process to eliminate the chance of a disconnect between the architect's blueprints and the ultimate execution. When your signage, landscaping, irrigation and lighting plans are still in development, they're submitted to the city for review. We don't wait until the plans are final because too much time and translation may be lost.
That's the advantage of working with SignJive. We've been doing this awhile and know how to circumvent common project challenges as we deliver your project on time and with the innovation you expect.

HOW IT WORKS
From complete sign packages to landscaping, lighting and irrigation, we design and help execute every aspect of your project.
We get involved early in the process while your architect creates plans for submission to the city, or as they are submitting revisions. Our signage designs, landscaping, lighting and irrigation plans are part of the early submittal.
By staying ahead of the project timeline, we eliminate the chance of a disconnect between the architect's plans and the ultimate execution.
Q&A
Q: Who supplies the signage?
A: SignJive designs, manufactures and installs the signage portion of each project we work on — including installation. Your finished product is 100 percent turnkey.
Q: Who supplies the interior property signs like pool rules, unit numbers, future resident parking, etc.?
A: SignJive handles every stage and aspect of your project. We do it all.
Q: I have a landscaper. Can they do the landscaping and irrigation portions of the project?
A: Yes! We would design the landscaping and irrigation plans and then hand it over to your contractor or landscaper to execute. We want to supervise the landscaping installation, so it matches our plans and meets our standards. The same example holds true if you have an electrical contractor.
Q: Can I have my sign company make the sign portion of the project?
A: Yes! We will work with your existing team if that works best for you. Ask our account manager for our rate card.
Q: I don't have a landscaper, lightning or sign company. Can you take care of all parts of the project?
A: Yes! SignJive handles everything if that works for you.
Q: Will you plan the landscaping, lighting and irrigation for my entire project?
A: Yes! If you want us to do this, we will look at your plans and come up with a strategy that works best for you.
SIGNAGE
"Design is not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works." - Steve Jobs
SignJive designs signs to get noticed and work as intended.
Your entrance is one of the most effective forms of advertising when executed properly. Everyone who drives by will see it. Its design should get attention day and night.
Our unique approach to design is like no other. We aim to reinvent the way multifamily property entrances are designed and planned. We promise to create a one of a kind artscape that is functional, beautiful and unique.
LANDSCAPING
"Gardens are the result of a collaboration between art and nature." - Penelope Hobhouse
Landscaping around the entrance of your sign is a high priority when you want to complement your signage. Most times, the landscaping around a sign is adequate at best, and this below-standard treatment takes away from a sign's appeal. SignJive delivers a landscaping plan that includes colorful plants, layering to exact varying heights, and positioning low-maintenance species to allow for proper sun and visual appeal.
WE CHOOSE UNIQUE SPECIES DESIGNED
TO COMPLIMENT YOUR ENTRY SIGNAGE
"Give light and people will find the way."
- Ella Baker
Lighting for multifamily entrances is usually a missing part of a building's design plan, or it is inadequate or non-existent. In many cases, an entry doesn't take advantage of the power, and the low cost it takes to light it properly. SignJive creates a lighting plan that will enhance your property's night appeal. We light the signage, trees, walls and ground to fashion a dramatic entrance your competitors will envy.
LIGHTING
WE CHOOSE QUALITY LIGHTING
FIXTURES THAT STAND THE TEST OF TIME
"The grass is greener where you water it." - Unknown
Part of the success of any long-term landscaping plan includes proper irrigation. The right placement of irrigation at your entrance plays an important role in assuring that your signage lasts as long as it should. Often, due to improper positioning, irrigation sprays not only the landscaping but the signage.
If your property uses recycled water, hard water, or water containing rust and your sprinklers point at your signs, the signage will fade or discolor.
Inaccurately placed irrigation means your beautiful landscaping will also not grow optimally, or it may die, which costs you more money in the long run than if you had stationed everything where it needs to be.
SignJive plans ahead to devise an irrigation plan that takes these issues into account, so your landscaping thrives.
IRRIGATION
PUBLIC ART &
HARDSCAPE PLANNING
"Public Art can Tell the story of community spirit." - Venue Arts
Public art and hardscapes do not fall under the same municode guidelines as signage and are in many cases are allowed with few restrictions. SignJive will do advance research to see what your local municipality will allow so that we fully understand what we can do to maximize your properties curb appeal.
Public art is not an art “form.” Its size can be huge or small or call attention to the environment it’s placed in. Its shape can be abstract or realistic (or both), and it may be cast, carved, built, assembled, or painted. It can be site specific or stand in contrast to its surroundings. Public art can express community values, enhance our environment and transform a landscape. Public art is a reflection of how we see the world - the artist’s response to our time and place combined with our sense of who we are as a community.
