Great for general car park information (eg. open and closing times), advertising (ie. what's on in town), safety messages (eg. emergency evacuation drills) and wayfinding (ie. maps to key events), car park signage is a great value-add in car park locations. Looks like there will be a few more of these popping up around the place - watch this space! Our Case Study for this recent project links here!

When is bright orange, not bright orange? This recent project in our workshops emphasized just how much light can influence colour - and reinforced the need to consider carefully your sign location prior to commissioning.
Even in our consistently lit workshops, the difference a day can make is significant. Check out the shots below of the same sign, same position, just on a different day! Our experienced spraypainter has used 2 pac paint for this job to get the finish you would expect on a car - pretty high quality. Colour testing is done in advance of full paint work - matched to pantone references and with client approval to ensure that everyone is happy. This situation below shows just how easy it is to misinterpret colour based on environmental factors such as weather, sunlight, time of day, artificial vs natural sunlight etc. To find out how we can deliver outstanding colour reproduction on your next project, speak to one of our sales team today on + 61 8 9274 5151 or email: mark@signsandlines.com. Neon lettering in a single tube - what a refreshingly simple, yet effective way to brighten up a reception. Nothing glows like a beautiful neon sign.
This ones in construction phrase and rather than the usual computer aided design, it was really refreshing to see evidence of a pen and paper in use to ensure a free-flowing design. Neon is becoming rapidly outdated as a signage product given the efficiency of LEDs and the move towards digital signage. Did you know that Neon is defined as the chemical element of atomic number 10? It's an inert gaseous element of the noble gas group and is obtained by the distillation of liquid air. I predict we'll see a resurgence of neon in retro signage - taking us back to the glamourous 20's or the retro 50's. Loved seeing this 300mm x 300mm x 300mm translucent blue acrylic cube illuminated with LEDs come to life in our workshops this week. Don't be fooled, this is no simple project. What looks simple from the outside relies on all our production departments including design, router, painting, fabrication and assembly.
This picture was taken in the testing phase - just making sure it illuminated correctly before it goes out of the door to a new home. As the wording suggests, this one is bound for a recording studio. We took a step behind the lens this week to record our amazing touchscreen digital display suite in action at Finbar's Sales Office in the city. Utilizing the very best actors, starlets and budding thespians from the Signs & Lines talent pool, we spent a fascinating afternoon in front and behind the lens for our new video. Thanks for Marty for his amazing direction and patience. You'll see the fruits of the shoot very soon ... yes, there's a new dog in town. Watch this space! The trend of converting static signs to digital signage continues. The latest transformation at Waikiki Shopping Centre has shifted the outdated pylon sign into a dynamic, modern digital sales tool. With plenty of opportunity for a return on investment through selling digital advertising (such as the Aldi ad displayed below), the sign immediately starts to pay for itself. A true win, win result for all. Read more about this exciting Digital Signage Pylon project in the free downloadable Case Study below.
All good things must come to an end so after 3 years studying a Cert III Signage apprenticeship, the end of the tunnel is getting very close for Phil T. His last project of the Signage apprenticeship was based on the Art Deco era and here's a run down on what was involved: "My project was made from laser cut 4mm acrylic shapes that i designed using Signlab. In the centre I used a digital print to create a marble look and add a touch of class! All of the acrylic was backed up with various cast vinyls. The backing board also had machine cut vinyl applied to the rear to create a stylish boarder, and then backed up with black. The titled panel vinyls were applied to the face for a stand out feature. The project was then bonded to one another creating the layered affect. I polished the sides of all acrylics, creating a glass like finish!" Lovely work Phil :) Last months Australian Sign & Graphics (ASGA) Awards in Sydney’s Bicentennial Park saw Signs & Lines pick up 3 gongs. In total 514 entries were received, with 36 companies winning awards across 18 categories. As always some of the entries were quite outstanding (including ours). We were particularly pleased to win 2 out of the 3 places in the digital signage category. We picked up our Gold award in the highly fought category of fabrication of large pylon and sky signs. Our gongs included:
These 84" advertising kiosks are truly high and mighty! Showcasing advertising materials for APN's media partners, the three new kiosks located in Perth's busy BusPort entrances give the passing traffic a real "eye-full" as they wonder by. Although we know that great things come in small packages, in this case we are definitely arguing that big is beautiful! Find out more in our Case Study - link below.
