    From the minds eye into success

    We all know how difficult it can be making decisions about marketing our own products.

    The first thing you must remember when designing your new sign is the first impression you have … in your minds eye.

    This will be the guiding star through a mass of options and suggestions… don’t become clouded by the ideas of others unless they suggest something you instantly click with.

    Ok so you’ve got yr first idea… now sketch it or find something similar in a magazine or on the web.

    Make a page in Word for example and start sticking images on it that create the mood you are after.

    That first step is the most important… now all you need to do is find the right sign service and make it happen.

    Best of luck.

    Article by Traditional London sign-writer Nick Garrett

    Decorative motif is making a resurgence these days in signwriting, brand and graphic design and frankly I love it!  As a dedicated signwriter I just love work that is varied, creative and fun… here are few recent mural motifs showing quite a variety of themes.

    When designing a sign or mural I provide detailed layouts that present all aspects of the project.

    The final signage product always benefits from this professional design led process – and is included in my competitive service.
