W elcome to Gilb ert |
Tracy commented about people who didn’t take the time to do
their job well.
I considered who would have been the decision makers
regarding this signage for the city of Gilbert.
There was probably a meeting of the city council or chamber
of commerce. They talked about the budget and where they could place the
signage in the community.
The entire design was probably left to someone who
specialized in creating signage of this nature. I question how much thought was
even put into the type style by the decision makers.
Assembly was probably completed by tradesmen who specialize
in brick installation. They followed the drawings presented, which probably spaced
the support bars for the letters evenly without consideration for the spacing
of the letters. There may have been a city official or a photographer in
attendance at the installation.

What it boils down to is, this is something no one sees. Or
at least they don’t realize what they are seeing. It is up to the designer to
be meticulous when it comes to these details.
