Content

Function and content is design work necessary when you ask how to make signage well. As a sign product has its value, a nice shape, then we have to know where to use it, what function it has, that is, we often say, “good designers think from the content first.”

First, pay attention to the careful use of popular elements (to avoid losing features in the short term), —-how to make signage more attractive.

Many designers use too many popular elements in the design of acrylic signs, but the popular elements sink too fast and will disappear in the eyes of the public over time, so their visual effect is also poor. Designers should be careful to use popular elements in signage design. unique signage design should be popular and avoid risks at the same time.

Second, pay attention to the recognition of signs (increase memory elements)

Like acrylic signage design, it is material mostly using high-catching; this kind of signage design worthy of consideration, especially pay attention to the identification of the signage, the surface is not easy to be too complex, just need to be concise.

Third, Pay attention to the matching of fonts (cater to the design theme)

Because acrylic signage has a wide range of application, and its style can be changed at will with the design route, which is also one of the important reasons why it is widely used, so in professional signage design, special attention should be paid to the matching of fonts and the style attributes of patterns, such as euphemistic style, warm style, and entertainment style.

Proportion 

How to make signage in suitable proportion. When making and determine the size and proportion, we must use “ergonomics” to think about the design, such as corner tilt angle, font size, visual distance, every detail should be carefully considered for the customer, over and over again, this kind of product design can be called “people-oriented”. Understand the size of various materials, material size is one of the design standards, the design should consider whether the designed material has such a size, not too large or too small, it may cause waste and unnecessary losses to the company and customers.

Manner 

How to make signage manner? Style is the character of a system. A set of design that integrates the logo and orientation of the building must be based on the style of architecture and decoration. In addition to the differences in style, the architecture of different periods is also reflected in the details, such as the symbols of elements, the overall architectural style, and details of a project, which are dominated by its cultural background. Understand the style and elements of the project so that you can make what the customer wants. To achieve the logo into the building, as from the growth of the highest state.

Color 

Follow the application part of the VI logo of the customer enterprise, follow the inclusiveness of tone and architecture, and be clear at a glance at a critical moment, there must be a deep and light contrast in color, a contrast between bright and matte, and a comparison between logo and background color.

Attention to not too many colors (to prevent confusion)

In the signage design, one of the important principles is that lack than to abuse, to clip the indispensable elements among them, to remove the unimportant content from the design scope, and to make reasonable use of color in the design. Generally speaking, the color of the acrylic sign only needs black and white, if there is a special need, you can add 1 or 2 colors, but pay attention to not too many colors, so that visitors have a dazzling feeling.

This ties in with our first tip. What might seem obvious to many goes over others? Use contrasting colors in your designs to accentuate parts of the message that may have more importance. Continuing from our first point, we often try to contrast the colors of your design with those found in the environment your sign will be located. If your sign will be moved across a wide variety of environments, we will choose safe and friendly colors that blend with all environments.

How To Make Signage From Detail

Good products, architecture, decoration design, their appearance is unassailable. Therefore, in the design process, we try not to appear screws in the appearance, the gap between the plate and the board, as well as the interface should consider the problem of edge closing and closing. A bad edge may hurt people's skin, which should be taken into account in the design process. Avoid production only to find that does not let cracks, defects to affect the quality of our products.

Keep it simple

Another simple trick to ensure your design gets seen is to keep the message simple. On most signage, you don’t have the same luxury as a magazine or website, where your viewers are looking at your design 1ft away from their screen. Keeping the sign “simple” by listing key services (rather than EVERY service you offer) helps eliminate clutter. This in turn allows you to quickly catch passing individuals’ eyes and better deliver your advertisement.

Material

How to make signage using the right material. In the process of the use of Material materials, we should give full play to the texture of the material itself, understand the different characteristics of each material, find the unique texture of the material, and give full play to the efficacy of the material. Expensive design, its materials are not necessarily the most expensive, the most expensive materials, if the design is not good, it is easy to become vulgar. The two most commonly used materials are metal and acrylic.

Metal signage are available in multiple kinds of finishes like Brass, Copper, Bronze, Stainless steel & Aluminum. They are comparatively heavy, expensive but a commanding option. It is an ideal options for a brands which want to be perceived as experienced and trusted.

Acrylic signage are available in a plethora of color options, very flexible hence scope of creativity is immense. They provide a fresh, new age look to a business outlet. This is the ideal option for brands which want to be perceived as fresh, new-age and offering something innovative..

Installation 

If you are a worker, how to install, how to assemble, can read the drawings, understand the process sequence, if not, must think in place, pay attention to its logic, feasibility. because this is the work of the designer, do not let the workers design and think about the imperfect parts for you, never blame the workers for the construction is not in place, only the design is unreasonable Ill-conceived.

Maintenance 

Maintenance customers who buy our products do not want it to be one time but want to use it repeatedly, so the design process must consider whether the content can be replaced, whether it is convenient for future maintenance and update.
