Dimensional letters add interest to a company logo sign

Posted on October 14, 2010 | Posted by Murray Johns

A 2D sign can look great, but the additional of dimensional letters to enhance a company logo sign can really make a strong visual impression.

What are dimensional letters and dimensional logos?  Typically, they are three dimensional components of a custom sign design that have thickness as well as height and width.

In some cases, the dimensional letters are a composite sandwich of two or more materials.  Putting different materials together can be done for visual interest and design effect or for cost purposes (such as using a metal laminate on top of a less expensive material).  The dimensional letters in this outdoor business sign were routed from PVC and then painted to achieve the customer's logo colors.

In the case of the sign at left, the dimensional letters were made from black acrylic in two different thicknesses.  We recommend that smaller text be cut from thinner material.  Otherwise, the shadows from the letters make them more difficult to read when viewed at an angle.
