Hartbrights Signage Gives Disco 54 Night Fever
The glitz and glamour on show at the launch night of London’s hottest new venue, Disco 54 at Cafe de Paris, was a spectacle, aided in no small part to the external and internal signage provided by Hartbrights.
We were commissioned by CT Creative to produce an illuminated external sign for above the entrance, two illuminated internal signs for the balconies and other illuminated décor to complete the interior – all designed to match the vibe of the disco-themed club.
Here’s how we went about it…
- First, the design stage…
- …then the tools of the trade.
- 3D lettering and numbering cut and sprayed.
- Every sequin on this sign was individually placed by hand. The 3D letters contain the LED lighting within.
- Capped with gold sprayed lettering.
- Designed to mimic the 54 glitter balls that feature in the club.
- One internal halo lit sign comes together.
- The other internal sign features a mosaic mirror background.
- Inlays for the 3D lettering in the same mosaic mirror finish.
- When it all comes together.
- Again, mimicking the glitter balls.
- Almost complete, one of our team is pleased with the finish.
- UV printed onto acrylic, these ‘fans’ provide the finishing touches to Disco 54.
- Finished and ready to mount around the venue.
Before we transported the signage for installation we conducted a thorough test to ensure everything was working correctly and we’d achieved what we’d set out to do. We think we nailed it:
The proof is always in the pudding, of course, and so it was launch night where all our hard work would, we hoped, pay off. We think it did – what about you?
