 Non-Illuminated Signs Architectual Signs
"Architectural signage" is a broad category covering displays more appropriate for a corporate campus, residential subdivision or any other place where a sign should have a more refined look. Just about any kind of business can choose this more "high brow" style of signage. Ultimately, all architectural signs have the same goal: provide a visible message while maintaining a balance of harmony with the environment and surrounding architecture.
The traditional single pole, box cabinet sign does not typically fit the term "architectural." Low profile monument style signs are popular in attaining the architectural look. Other types of architectural signage can include way-finding directional signage, informational sign directories, routed individual letters, banners using unique materials and techniques in decoration and more.
Architectural signs can use a wide variety of materials. Routed metal faces and cabinets are common to this category. More traditional face types, like flat Lexan or Panaflex can be made to appear architectural with the right handling of graphics. Brick and other masonry work can be incorporated into face backgrounds and support structures. Signs may be interior lighted with neon, fluorescent lamps or even exotic items like fiber optic cable.
Non-illuminated "commercial" signs are popular and can feature dimensional looks via routed materials like high density urethane.
Finally, architectural signage doesn't have to cost a fortune. If your signage project requires an understated, tasteful yet still visible appearance, then this is the right category for your sign.
