Your company needs custom building signage in Tucson. How do you choose the type best suited to your brand, location, and overall building design? Your building sign questions – answered!
How Important is a Company’s Location When Considering an Outdoor Business Sign?
Your company’s location is one of the most important considerations when choosing a building sign. Businesses located along busy roads need different signs than those located in a shopping center. For example, if your location is near a busy Tucson street, you would benefit from larger lettering. In a business park, standard three-dimensional lettering (with or without illumination) could be a better option.
How Does Custom Exterior Signage Communicate Your Brand?
Brand recognition is crucial for any company. Interestingly, your commercial building sign can build brand recognition through material selection alone. Professional offices do well with acrylic or metal wall letters. Medical offices typically opt for cabinet signs or illuminated letters. Channel letters are ideal for restaurants and retailers. If you represent a luxury brand, we recommend halo-lit lettering.
What Role Do Tucson Sign Regulations Play?
Without a permit, you cannot display building signage in the city. Our office team regularly helps clients with signage permitting, so we know what works for your location. We can help you choose signage and adjust your setup to meet zoning regulations.
Do You Need Day and Nighttime Visibility?
A non-illuminated building sign is a good option for businesses that operate during regular office hours. In contrast, hospitality businesses, medical facilities, and service businesses often do better with LED channel letters or internally lit cabinet signs.
How Does the Building’s Architecture Influence the Choice of Building Signage in Tucson?
The wall design of the building your business is in plays a vital role in choosing commercial signage. If you do business in a historic building, choose style elements that complement the architecture. Underscore the building’s architectural features rather than cover them up. Halo-lit channel letters could be a good option. For stucco, brick, and overall modern architecture, consider precision-cut, 3D acrylic or metal building letters.
Case Study: Suzuki Law Offices
Suzuki Law is a returning client. Our team had previously assisted the law firm with an acrylic panel lobby sign. For this latest project, the client asked us to refresh their building’s signage. After consulting with the management team, we designed, fabricated, and installed flat-cut acrylic letters with a glossy finish. The black color complements the window trim while contrasting beautifully with the cream-colored walls.
