Selecting The Best Shape For Your Outdoor Sign

The overall shape you choose for your outdoor signage is vital. Does it look good in its environment? Are you able to fit all of the information you want on it comfortably? Luckily, it's fairly simple to select an effective shape for your outdoor business signs.

So how do I choose a shape for my outdoor business sign?

Well, there are three most commonly used sign shapes:

• Horizontal rectangle
• Vertical rectangle
• Perfect square

Here is how these shapes work:

Rectangular signs are good for fewer words. Outdoor signs that are perfect squares are great when you want to include several lines of text.

Want to use a more unique shape?

Circles and ovals are also fairly common. You might even want your outdoor sign in the shape of a coffee mug or a pair of eyeglasses — something that immediately tells your audience what your establishment is, without them even having to read it. (Fun fact: Years ago, all signs were shapes with no text. A Cobbler, for example, would hang the silhouette of a shoe on his door. This was because most people were illiterate.)
