Milwaukee Muscle Exhibit at Discovery World Museum
Discovery World Museum came to us looking for a way to create a large scale entrance for its Briggs & Stratton corporate
exhibit. They wanted a 6’ tall wall that was free-standing and could withstand the wear & tear from continuous tour
groups. Especially important would be durability as they wanted the kids visiting the museum to be able to play on the
sign. The objective: design and build something as strong as a fence post, but that has the look of an exhibit sign.
Our solution was an aluminum channel letter (12” deep), contoured to match a spiral staircase in the museum that the
letters are mounted to. The “Milwaukee” part of the sign is mounted on tubes to match the spiral of a staircase. The
“Muscle” part is attached to the floor. The sign features a Matthews acrylic clear coat paint finish, aluminum welded
construction and a CNC machined profile. We did the design, manufacture and install. This project was particularly
enjoyable because it was different than your standard flat building sign and was fun to design.

2. Exterior Building Signage for Milwaukee Police
The intricate detailing on a Milwaukee Police officer’s badge is a work of art. When that badge becomes an 11 foot,
custom-built sign, it’s truly amazing! It was an honor to be asked to build this highly visible symbol for the Milwaukee
Police Department and install it on their downtown administration building at 7th and State Street.
Fred Zabel, the newest member of our Account Management team, was a natural fit to work on this project because of his
in-depth knowledge of the area in which it was installed and his high level of familiarity with the contractor, Beyer
Construction. Fred has worked with a lot of contractors throughout Milwaukee and has developed a great rapport with
them.
L.E.D. LIGHTING
Light Emitting Diodes are a familiar light source that have found their way into many new and extraordinary places for all
the right reasons. When an electric current passes through a tiny stack of gem stone chips, a light is emitted. Because
L.E.D.s are low voltage, usually 12 volts, they consume a fraction of the energy required for other light sources. Neon, for
example, may require as much as 10 times that of L.E.D.s. Colored L.E.D.s are often warrantied by their manufacturers for up
to five years or 100,000 hours of continuous operation.
Color changing L.E.Ds or RGB L.E.Ds are easily controlled in terms of color and brightness.
RGB’s can be used to set mood and feel to a structure, building, or room. This might also include the feel of temperature.
Warm colors feel warm and cool colors feel cool which can be directly related to energy savings in climate control areas. (AC
in the summer and/or Heat in the winter) Using DMX controlled L.E.D.s, we can achieve many different colors and brightness
levels to help set the feel for your environment.

OUTDOOR MONUMENT SIGNS
Monument signs are freestanding signs typically wider than they are tall. Monument signs are allowed in communities with
more restrictive sign codes and are often limited to an overall height of 10' or less. Some communities require the
monument sign to use the same building material as the building it represents. This allows for continuity between building
architecture and the sign. Sign Effectz can help you with the design, fabrication, installation and maintenance of your
company's monument sign.
