If you are considering the purchase of a lobby sign for your business, you may find the number of choices a little overwhelming.   Should you use a foam sign, acrylic aluminum?  How about a lighted lobby sign? Each has their place and and the important thing is to find a sign that presents the right image for your company.  Foam letters are inexpensive but can look really nice if you don't want to do too much damage to your wallet.  Acrylic is probably the most common material used for lobby signs because it is versatile,  easily shaped and can accept many different types of finishes. More expensive options include aluminum, lighted and more complex designs.  One option that is both very attractive and affordable is the standoff.
