Case Study: Spin Master Corporate Campus Signage

Project Overview 

Spin Master partnered with Starfish Signs & Graphics to turn its new corporate campus into a workplace that feels as creative and expressive as its brand. Through a mix of signage, graphics, decorative films, and wayfinding elements, we helped create an environment that inspires employees and welcomes visitors alike. 

The Task

As Spin Master expanded into a new workplace environment, the company needed signage that would: 

  • Strengthen exterior brand visibility 
  • Improve navigation throughout the facility 
  • Maintain ADA compliance 
  • Create privacy where needed without sacrificing natural light 
  • Reflect the creativity and innovation of the Spin Master brand 
  • Tie together multiple buildings, departments, and workspaces under a unified visual identity 

The solution required balancing functional signage requirements with creative customer-provided environmental graphics designed to enhance the employee experience.

Starfish Solution

Starfish Signs developed and installed a coordinated signage package that blended branding, wayfinding, and workplace design.

Exterior Branding 

The exterior scope included:

  • Dimensional building signage
  • Monument sign updates 
  • Parking monument branding 
  • Site identification enhancements 

These elements increased visibility from surrounding roadways while creating a consistent first impression for visitors arriving on campus.

Interior Signage & Wayfinding

To improve navigation throughout the facility, we installed:

  • ADA-compliant room identification signs
  • Departmental wayfinding signage
  • Directional and informational graphics

The result was a more intuitive experience for employees, guests, and visitors.

Environmental Graphics & Workplace Branding

One of the most distinctive aspects of the project was the use of environmental graphics throughout the workspace. Installations included:

  • Custom vinyl overlays
  • Department-branded glass graphics
  • Frosted privacy film
  • Specialty dichroic window film
  • Large-format window graphics

These elements transformed ordinary glass surfaces into opportunities for storytelling, branding, and workplace engagement.

A standout feature was the specialty dichroic window film, which creates a vibrant, color-shifting effect that changes with light and viewing angles. Selected to create a bold, dynamic design element while preserving the environment’s openness, the film adds energy and visual interest throughout the workspace.
