Selecting the right signs for your restaurant, store, office, or service establishment can get complicated when you try to think through the entire package all at once. Our graphic artists have the solution for choosing the ideal interior signs in Lake Bluff IL.
Start with the Lobby Logo or 3D Letter Signs
We always recommend that clients start their signage selections with the marker that goes into the reception area. Logo boards combine sophistication with the opportunity to add artistry to the mix. For example, transparent panels featuring imprinted letters and logo style elements make sense. Mount these boards to the wall with brushed aluminum standoffs. For illuminated lobby signs, select a color for the panel that hides the LEDs. Three-dimensional letters let you take advantage of a larger space. Typical material choices include metal, acrylic, PVC, and foam.
Follow up the Selection with ADA Signs
Required by law (Americans with Disabilities Act), ADA-compliant signs must meet stringent standards that include mounting locations, heights, and display rules. Our experts know the approved fonts and can help you find color contrasts that let you integrate corporate colors into the design. We also help you with the symbol choice. When you want to include your logo for branding, there are ways to accomplish this simply by muting the display of the symbol. By choosing ADA designs after your lobby sign, there will be no visual conflict in the display of these products.
Put Together User-friendly Directories and Wayfinding Signs
Nothing is more frustrating than getting lost in a facility. Even a standard office building can get confusing to traverse if rooms are not labeled and a directory is either incomplete or outdated. There are several types of products available. We recommend choosing one that leaves some empty spots when you finish filling in the blades for suite numbers and tenant names. Room for growth prevents confusion later on. Wayfinding products partially fall under the ADA signage heading. That said, consider additional directional markers such as floor graphics, ceiling-mounted blade signs, and similar products.
Create the Right Mood for the Setting with Wall Graphics
Are you thinking of having the office’s décor fit with a specific theme? Wall graphics highlight this theme and tie together interior décor elements. Graphics can also inform. Medical offices routinely rely on wall graphics to provide directions to patients who may be visiting for the first time. Restaurants like to use graphics to display popular dishes, which might help guests make up their minds or try something new. In a conference room, display the company’s logo as well as a tagline for branding.
Etched Vinyl Privacy Film Puts an End to the Fishbowl Experience
Open floor plans, glass-enclosed offices, and windows opening up vistas to storerooms or the backs of shelves can be problematic. Etched vinyl privacy film puts an end to undesirable visibility. Choose a frosted product in the light gray color that is so typical of the material, or opt for a more colorful display, and then ask our artists to etch out the company’s name and logo. Other etchings include geometric shapes or niche-specific images.
