Building Codes vs. Design Aesthetics

Are your designs up to code? Learn how the International Building Code can impact your design choices when developing physical signage.

Jimmy Wayne Stephens is the founder of CODE WIZARD LLC, a building code and accessibility consultancy in the Middle Tennessee area. He will be presenting a discussion of building code issues pertinent to signage design titled Absolutely Everything the 2018 IBC Says About Signage to members of SEGD. A reference document with the same title will be available for attendees.

A graduate of UTK College of Architecture + Design, Mr. Stephens specializes in the interpretation of code language and development of code strategies for architects and designers. After 11 years as a Plans Examiner for Metro Nashville, Mr. Stephens founded CODE WIZARD LLC to assist in the design process prior to submittal for permits, limiting worry, time and money spent on deficiencies in code compliance.

This Nashville Chapter event has free registration thanks to our sponsors Identity Group and Gresham Smith.

PixelFLEX Tour

Join us in the newly created showroom at PixelFLEX to discover new ideas for incorporating LED displays into the built environment. The fine folks at PixelFLEX will have their latest products on display, and they will be on-hand to talk through various applications--from artistic to all-weather. This tour will also be a great opportunity to get a first hand look at the installation, maintenance, and content considerations you should keep in mind when proposing LED as part of a solution.

Want to learn more about PixelFLEX? You can some of their past work right here on the SEGD web site.

 Be sure to let us know you are coming. Free registration on Eventbrite.

SEGD BNA Nashville Chapter Events

SEGD BNA : Holiday Hang

No year is complete without a holiday mixer. Come out after work on December 20th for a little holiday hang out with the best graphic designers, space planners, architects, technology integrators, and fabricators in town.

Our friends at Smith and Lentz will graciously save a few tables for us, and attendees will be responsible for purchasing their own holiday libations.

We hope to see you there! Speaking of which, be sure to let us know if we should save you a seat. Free registration

SEGD BNA : Bridgestone Arena Tour

It's time for another SEGD BNA event! This time we're heading to Bridgestone Arena where the Big Visual Group will talk about the environmental graphics of the Predators facility.

Everyone should park in the 6th Avenue garage and use the call box to gain entry. Just let security know that you are attending the Big Visual Group tour. If you arrive on foot (or late), use the SoBro entrance on Demonbreun Street.

Before the tour, the Nashville Civic Design Center will share this year's plans for PARK(ing) Day 2018.

Following the tour, we'll look for a nearby watering hole for some casual socializing and an informal review of the SEGD national conference.

Register for free, and we look forward to seeing you soon!

Special thanks to Big Visual Group for sponsoring this event.
