Project Update I Black Magic Hair Salon

Sometimes things happen that are beyond our control. So when the store front window of Black Magic Hair Salon here in San Leandro was shattered it was necessary to replace it along with the window lettering. The owner thought selecting a one color design using black vinyl would make for a simple affordable look, without realizing that the color black would not show up on a window. Black in particular will “wash out” and make the letters disappear. The solution, especially with black lettering, would have been to add an outline color.

Generally speaking all dark colors, when placed on glass, will have the tendency to wash out making a shadow or outline color necessary. This is not true with lighter colors that will contrast well against glass. In this particular instance the owner opted to use gold lettering with a black outline. The simple two-color lettering provided just the right amount of contrast.

If you are thinking about a window graphics project or store front lettering project, give SignWorks a call at (510) 357-2000 or send an email to info@signworks.us.com.
