Overview
This sign makes no attempt at subtlety — a full-bleed red background with bold white text covering the entire panel surface delivers the designation with the visual force of a traffic control sign. Unlike the green-field Designated Smoking Area signs earlier in this series that use color to signal permission and welcome, this red-field version uses color to command attention first and communicate the designation second. The three-line “DESIGNATED / SMOKING / AREAS” layout fills the red field edge to edge, with each word receiving generous vertical space that keeps the typography open and unrushed despite the intensity of the background color.
The use of plural “AREAS” rather than “AREA” is a meaningful policy distinction that separates this sign from its singular counterparts. Properties with multiple smoking zones — a front entrance alcove, a rear patio, a rooftop terrace — need a sign that communicates the existence of a network of designated spaces rather than pointing to a single specific location. This sign functions as a master policy declaration rather than a location-specific marker, making it the right choice for property directories, main lobby postings, facility maps, and primary entrance communications where the goal is to inform visitors that designated smoking areas exist somewhere on the property rather than directing them to one specific spot. For large Los Angeles properties — hotel complexes, entertainment campuses, multi-building office parks — this sign sets expectations at the point of arrival before directional signs take over the navigation task.
