Printing › Design

Bring us your ideas.
We turn them into signage that gets seen.

Send your logo, your text, or a rough layout. Our design team builds it to the exact dimensions of the display it is going on — spacing the text to clear roadside obstructions, sizing it to read from moving traffic, setting the layout edge to edge.

Tell us what you need and we come back with the layout before anything starts. You keep total control of the design, and nothing goes into production until you say go.

What to send us

  • Your logo, the biggest version you have. A print file if you have one, a screenshot off your own website if that is all there is. We work with what exists.
  • The words. Exactly as you want them read, spelled the way you spell them. Your hours, your phone, your name.
  • Anything you already like. A menu, an old sign, a flag down the road you keep noticing. Showing us tells us more in ten seconds than describing it does in ten minutes.
  • Where it is going, and how far back people will be standing when they read it. A door and a highway are not the same job.

What comes back

  • A layout built to the exact size of the product you are printing — not a picture we shrink to fit afterward.
  • Two rounds of changes, included. You are not paying by the tweak, and you are not stuck with the first thing we send.
  • The finished print file, and it is yours. Use it again, use it somewhere else, hand it to someone else. We do not hold your artwork.
  • A straight answer if something will not work at that size. We would rather tell you before it prints than after.

How it goes

  1. Tell us what you are picturing

    Call or text. A sentence is enough to start — "I need a flag for the lot and I want people to know we do oil changes."

  2. We come back with what it takes

    Before anything starts, so there is no surprise in it. If it is a bigger job than you thought, you find that out now.

  3. You say go, or you do not

    Nothing happens to your files unless you say so.

  4. We lay it out and you look at it

    At the finished size, on the actual product. Then you tell us what to change, twice, included.

  5. It prints, and the file is yours

    You keep the artwork. Next time you order, we already have it.

What makes a sign work

Most of it is not taste. It is distance.

  • Fewer words. Two or three read from the road. A paragraph does not get read at all.
  • Contrast before cleverness. Dark on light or light on dark. Pretty colors that sit next to each other on the wheel disappear at forty feet.
  • Your name big, one message under it. That is the whole structure of almost every sign that works.
  • Leave room around it. Crowded reads as cheap, and it is the single most common thing we fix.

Already have a designer

Then send us their file and we print it. You do not need this page, and we are not going to try to talk you into it.

If their file is not built for the size you are ordering, we will tell you what needs to change and you can take that back to them. It costs you nothing to find out.

Already have artwork you like

Send it. If it works, it works, and we will say so. Every product page lets you drop your file straight onto the product and see it before you order.

Tell us what you are picturing

Call or text and we will talk it through. We come back to you on what it takes before anything starts, and nothing happens until you say go.

What we design for

Every one of these lets you put your own artwork on it and see it before you order — and every one of them is something we will lay out for you instead.
