Using Custom Outdoor Sign Shapes To Maximize Value

The overall shape you choose for your outdoor signage is vital. Does it look right in its environment? can you fit your message on it comfortably? Luckily, it's fairly simple to select an effective shape for your outdoor sign.

So how do I choose a shape for my custom outdoor signs?

You might consider one of the three most popular 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 signage in the shape of a surfboard or a pair of eyeglasses — something that immediately tells your audience what your business is, without them even having to read it. (Fun fact: Years ago, all signs were nothing more than shapes. A Cobbler, for example, would hang the silhouette of a shoe on his door. This was because most people could not read.)
