Edmonton Design Week 2025: The Lost Opportunity of Design Impact

Every designer wants to make an impact. Great design is everywhere… but too often, it never leaves the page. Ideas stall out, trapped in renderings and mood boards, because nobody asks the hard question: can this actually be built and how much will it cost?

At Hi Signs, we believe the real opportunity lies in bridging imagination with constructibility. This tour pulls back the curtain on how our design-build process captures the upstream energy of design impact and carries it through to fabrication, installation, and reality.

Join us during Edmonton Design Week for a behind-the-scenes tour of our 55,000 sq. ft. facility where ideas are built to create impact. We’ll look at how collaboration between designers and builders unlocks what would otherwise be “lost opportunities.” Experience the sparks, the machines, and the people who transform ambitious concepts into tangible experiences and discover how our design-build transforms “what if” into “what is.”
