In busy cities like Los Angeles and Santa Monica, it can be difficult for drivers to effortlessly find their destinations and ample parking. Signs make it easier for drivers to safely find and arrive at their desired location. Over the years, the Curcio team has designed custom signage for clients like the Citadel Outlets, Old Pasadena, the Los Angeles Dodgers, Staples Center, and more. This week, we share a few pictures of our favorite signs and remind facility managers of their importance.

Yellow has come to symbolize a great many things across cultures – meanings that are often conflicting in nature. Across Europe and North America, yellow is associated with amusement, gentleness, and spontaneity in contrast to other popular meanings, including deception, jealousy, greed, and cowardice. In Asia, yellow is the color of happiness, wisdom, and harmony and in Iran, disease, but also connection.

When drivers are navigating through your parking lot, you want to make arriving at their destination and securing a parking spot the easiest part of their drive, especially if they’ve been sitting in rush hour traffic on the 405 freeway on a Thursday afternoon. At Curcio, we believe that safety is a key element in our business. We’ve created a checklist to guide you through ensuring your parking lot exudes the right amount of safety.
