ANOTHER DIMENSION
3D built-up letters
Give your name depth with individual dimensional letters, considered finishes and a distinctive physical presence.
A great fit for: Retail fascias, reception areas and branded interiors

Illustrative design concept - your sign is made around your artwork.
Made around your business
Built-up letters have a three-dimensional face and return, giving a business name or logo depth and a stronger physical presence. They can be mounted individually, onto a sign tray or onto a discreet support system. The letter size, stroke width and chosen material determine which construction and lighting options are practical for your artwork.
A choice of character
Explore painted aluminium, stainless steel or acrylic constructions, with the finish selected around your brand and setting.
Light through the face
Front-lit letters use illuminated faces to make the wording visible after dark. Halo-lit options create light behind the letters.
A considered installation
Mounting method, cable routes and the fixing surface are considered alongside the letter design, rather than added at the end.

Before you enquire - a few good questions
What is the difference between flat-cut and built-up letters?
Flat-cut letters are cut from a sheet of material. Built-up letters have fabricated depth, creating a more substantial three-dimensional form. Share your artwork so the appropriate construction can be discussed.
Can very small lettering be illuminated?
Small letters and narrow strokes can limit the space available for lighting and fixings. The artwork needs to be reviewed before illuminated construction can be confirmed.
Can I choose between front and halo illumination?
Yes. Face lighting illuminates the letter front; halo lighting washes light onto the surface behind. Your wall finish, viewing distance and desired effect help determine the better option.
