A lobby is the entrance area of a building, where visitors first arrive. It often includes a vestibule, the small entry space just inside the door, and a waiting room. These common areas shape a visitor’s first impression, so lobby signs matter. A company name or logo on the wall tells people they’re in the right place. From our shop in Edgewater, Maryland, we make and install them for offices across the region.
Dimensional Letters for Lobby Signs
Dimensional letters are raised letters and logos that stand out from the wall. In a lobby, they give a business name real presence, and they suit reception areas and waiting rooms especially well. We make them in stainless steel, brushed metal, painted PVC, and acrylic, depending on the look and the space. For example, our brushed metal logo for Maryland Vision Institute even moved with the company into its new offices. We also made polished stainless steel letters for Price Benowitz and brushed gold letters for an office wall.
Stone and Specialty Lobby Signs
Some lobbies call for something more unusual. For instance, a polished granite sign with sandblasted letters makes a striking statement, like the one we made for Safeway. Laser-cut acrylic letters, such as our logo for Metropolitan Pediatric, give a crisp, modern look.
Planning and Installing Lobby Signs
Common areas see a lot of foot traffic, so placement matters. We generally install letters at or above eye level, where nobody leans against them or bumps them as they pass. Every lobby is its own project, so we plan each set around the wall, the lighting, and the room’s layout before we build anything. Then we place every letter exactly where it belongs. You can see more in our tutorial on how to install dimensional letters.
