Project Overview

Hospice of South Texas, the region’s oldest local nonprofit hospice, provides compassionate care that helps patients live beyond their illness. As part of fostering normalcy and community, the Dornburg Center of Compassion inpatient facility includes a movie theater for residents and families. To highlight the theater entrance, a custom wooden marquee sign was installed, framed by MQ2504 Recessed Marquee Lighting in White Powder Coat. The bright white fixtures outline the sign, creating a bold, welcoming glow that enhances visibility and celebrates the theater as a focal point for residents and visitors.

Why the MQ2504 Recessed Marquee Lighting?

The MQ2504 Marquee Series provides precise, high-quality illumination that works perfectly as a framing element. In this project, the white powder coat finish creates a strong visual contrast against the wooden sign, making the theater entrance highly legible and aesthetically bold, while the recessed mounting keeps the fixtures neatly contained within the sign’s edges.

Key Benefits

• Framing Effect: White fixtures highlight the perimeter of the wooden sign for a clear, defined marquee look.

• High Visibility: The bright, low-glare illumination draws attention and welcomes visitors.

• Durable Finish: White powder coat ensures long-lasting performance in an indoor/outdoor entry environment.
