An acrylic panel logo sign is popular for companies needing contemporary lobby signage. The products are sleek, have a timeless vibe, and fit perfectly with virtually all interior design and decor decisions. Take a look at some of the options open to you.

Start with a Frosted or Clear Acrylic Panel

Many clients favor a clear acrylic panel. They appreciate its glass-like quality. However, we have done designs where we wrapped the acrylic in frosted vinyl before adding more style elements. It gives the product a matte finish, which is ideal when displaying it in full sun or on a surface that already has a glossy finish. The frosted acrylic looks sophisticated, which makes it suitable for medical, legal, or accounting offices.

 

Take Advantage of the Glossy, Glass-Like Finish

If you determine that you favor the polished display, which makes the panel look like glass, consider maintaining the integrity of the surface. We have done very well by mounting style elements or printed details to the back of the panel. It does not add anything to the acrylic’s front, maintaining the illusion that the lobby sign is made of glass. This approach works well when you combine the acrylic panel with imprinted vinyl.

When You Want 3D, You Will Love Front and Back Prints

Did you know that we can take a standard acrylic panel and turn it into a work of art? For example, we can paint the back of the board in your corporate color. However, before doing so, we might install some style elements in the form of acrylic letters. Next, why not turn the sign around and add style elements to the front as well? It gives the illusion of three-dimensional artwork by taking advantage of the panel’s thickness.

 

Mixed Media Signs and Installation Options

Mixed media is a term that refers to the combination of various materials. For example, we might begin with an acrylic panel but then add metallic, foam, or PVC 3D letters and numbers. We can take this design even further, simply by also adding imprinted details behind the panel.

 

Another favorite design choice is the display of gradient color changes. We mimic it with printed vinyl overlays because it is impossible to create this look with paint effectively. It looks stunning, and our clients love the results.

Acrylic Lobby Sign with Stand-Offs

Installation options vary. Most times, we use brushed aluminum standoffs. They are generally round and create a visually pleasant juxtaposition to the typically rectangular panel design. However, you do not have to limit yourself. We can also use standoffs in various shapes, sizes, and colors. It is another method of making your signage unique.
