Facade signage for Mumbai buildings

Facade signage identifies a building or business from outside. It brings the logo, lettering, illumination and mounting system together at the scale of the architecture. Fianco works with custom metal, acrylic and LED signage briefs from Goregaon West, Mumbai.

Discuss your project

Design for the approach to the building

Start with the routes from which people approach the property. A name seen from a moving vehicle has a different reading distance from a logo beside an entrance. Mark the proposed position on an elevation and review letter height, spacing, contrast and nearby obstructions. An oversized sign can lose its relationship with the facade; a small sign may disappear against cladding or glazing.

Coordinate lettering, light and the wall

Dimensional metal letters, acrylic faces, front-lit channel letters and halo-lit lettering offer different daytime and night-time effects. Review the finish against the actual wall and agree how wiring, stand-offs and fixings will appear from below and from the side. The substrate, exposure and supporting structure must be assessed for the proposed assembly.

Include access and permissions in the brief

Identify landlord or building-management approvals, electrical supply, installation access and future maintenance access before fabrication. Exterior signs in Mumbai need a site-specific discussion of rain, moisture and coastal exposure. Ask the responsible project professional to check structural and local permission requirements; a design visual alone does not establish an approved installation.

Planning questions

Facade signage is attached to or integrated with a building. Outdoor signage is a broader category that can also include freestanding pylons, entrance signs and external directional signs.
Metal and acrylic assemblies can incorporate LED illumination. Front lighting, halo lighting, cable routes and access to electrical components should be reviewed together for the particular site.
