When designing a sign our designers at Insight Signs and Graphics are always looking for creative ways to make customers sign as conspicuous as possible. Conspicuity is different from visibility, legibility, or readability as the term relates to a sign’s surroundings. A sign posted in an isolated or remote area may be high visibility, legible, and readable. However, if that same sign is placed in the urban location, where it competes with other signs, utility poles, traffic lights, bus shelters, etc., it can become essentially invisible. A conspicuous sign that stands out from its visual surroundings and has a high probability of being noticed. According to the U.S. Small Business Administration, impulse stops account for 15% to 45% of sales, depending on the type of business. So, clearly, sign visibility and conspicuity closely relate to the ability to know where the store is.
According to research conducted by Villanova University, sign illumination plays an important role in making a sign both visible and conspicuous. Prevalent in the past, but making a recent comeback, neon lighting was used to achieve this. The vibrant color produced by neon was highly effective in helping businesses differentiate their branding and stand out from the other signs and urban distractions in the immediate environment. These days LED technologies are evolving to help businesses achieve the same vibrant effect on their signs.
