This project goes well beyond traditional signage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Visitors encounter a variety of custom displays exploring subjects ranging from the construction of Hoover Dam and the growth of Boulder City to mining, tourism, transportation and the development of railroads throughout Nevada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Large wall graphics establish the backdrop for the exhibits, while freestanding displays combine historical photography, dimensional components and interpretive information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Among the installations are exhibits highlighting \u201cBuilt by Rail,\u201d \u201cTransformed by Trains,\u201d \u201cHauling to Hoover,\u201d steam and diesel power, and the continued role of rail transportation in Nevada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One of the most striking aspects of the project is the variety of fabrication methods incorporated throughout the space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
YESCO’s work included large-format graphics, dimensional lettering, custom exhibit structures, suspended graphic elements, wall-mounted displays and other visual components that turn historical information into an engaging physical environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Several freestanding exhibits incorporate railroad-inspired details directly into their structures, while overhead elements including railroad imagery, signals and destination graphics add another visual layer above the museum floor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Oversized wall graphics help establish a sense of place throughout the museum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The \u201cMoving Nevada Into the Future\u201d installation stretches across a large section of wall and combines a Nevada landscape and freight train image with dimensional lettering. Other displays use archival railroad photography, maps and historical imagery at architectural scale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
These graphics allow historical photographs and documents to become part of the surrounding environment rather than simply appearing on traditional museum panels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The project also incorporates informational and directional elements, including a Boulder City display featuring a regional map and a numbered list of nearby destinations such as Hoover Dam, the Boulder City-Hoover Dam Museum and historic railroad trails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Together, the exhibits demonstrate how signage, graphics and custom fabrication can serve more than an identification purpose. They can help organize information, establish a visual theme and create an environment that supports storytelling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Project:<\/strong> Nevada State Railroad Museum The completed space combines historical imagery with modern fabrication to create a museum environment filled with visual details at nearly every turn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n From expansive wall graphics to dimensional freestanding exhibits and suspended displays, YESCO helped bring Nevada’s railroad story into the physical environment of the museum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n YESCO provides custom signage, environmental graphics, dimensional displays, large-format graphics, fabrication and installation services for businesses, museums, public facilities and organizations throughout Las Vegas, Boulder City and Southern Nevada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Whether a project calls for a single identification sign or a complete visual environment, YESCO has the fabrication and installation capabilities to bring complex concepts into the built space.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This project goes well beyond traditional signage.
