Great looking logo signs using brushed metal and dimensional letters

Posted on September 22, 2011 | Posted by Murray Johns

There are many high-quality, attractive materials available to use in creating a great-looking logo sign, and one of the better looking combinations (in our humble opinion!) is that of brushed metal and painted acrylic dimensional letters.

Because solid metal panels can be relatively expensive, we frequently recommend an aluminum composite panel (ACP).  The core of the ACP is a solid black plastic, and the faces of the panel are skinned with thin layers of aluminum.  The aluminum is available in a variety of colors included brushed and speckled natural finishes.

The Hobbs & Associates sign shown above was fastened to the wall using architectural hardware - aluminum standoffs - that create a gap between the sign panel and the wall, thus adding another interesting layer of dimensionality to the sign's character.

In contrast, the Neuro Biologix dimensional logo sign was fastened to the wall with hidden hardware (a "French cleat").  As a smaller sign, the Lindsey Docherty logo sign was held in place with double sided tape for a temporary display.

The dimensional acrylic letters are typically cut by a laser that leaves the edges in a polished condition, and corners are nice and "crisp" in accordance with the original artwork.

Acrylic letters and logo pieces can also be painted in custom colors in order to satisfy a brand's logo mark specifications.
