Fonts and Readability in Signage

A Beginner’s Guide to Fonts and Readability in Signage

Fonts are not just about looking fancy when it comes to signage – they can make or break how easy your sign is to read and how your business is perceived. It’s not just a question of personal taste – the typeface you choose can seriously affect how your business is seen by the public, which can either get you lots of positive attention or consign you to the bin if it’s a complete mess. A font that’s awkward or cluttered can make your business look a bit dodgy, while a clear simple one can be a real confidence booster. From modern sans serif lettering on a shop front to more elegant serif fonts on a wooden sign, it’s amazing how a decent choice can turn your branding around. This guide takes a close look at the basics of font styles, the things to avoid, and some useful tips on how to get your signage to stand out in a crowded market.
