Carmelita’s Taqueria & Grill welcomes guests at 34255 Pacific Coast Highway. More than just another restaurant, it is a bona fide cultural experience. The kitchen is open, which engages guests from the start. Watch the tortillas being made. To complete the ambiance, the eatery selected the technicians at Lobby Signs Irvine to put together halo-lit logo signs in Dana Point, CA.
Back-Lit Letter Signs for the Interior are Becoming More Popular
Some companies commission halo-lit sign logos to underscore their brands in warehouse settings. Restaurants have had excellent success with placing them inside their venues to create the right mood. The elements of the logo to illuminate are, of course, the letters that spell out the name.
For Carmelita’s Taqueria & Grill, our team used fabricated aluminum letters with LEDs inside each one to create the lit halo. Because of the logo’s presentation, the other details did not have to be illuminated. Therefore, we fabricated them using white acrylic.
The sign was mounted to a wall with an attractive new wood finish. To contain the wiring and house the power supply, which needs to be accessible for the product to work, we made a two-inch-deep backer panel. In addition to this functionality, it also helped transition the contrast between the lighting and the wood panel finish.
The back-lit letter setup is the perfect sign, is true to the original brand logo, and is designed to make an impact as soon as guests walk in through the restaurant’s doors.
Select an Illuminated Sign for the Interior
Of course, halo-lit logo signs are just one option. Another attractive product is the scaled-down channel letter. Some business owners have chosen to feature replicas of their building signs as lobby signage. Channel letters have the advantage of being true to the corporate color play as well as the selected font. It allows for brand building on the inside and outside.
Another option is a thin box cabinet. The advantage of this presentation is the colorful display you can bring indoors. If you favor gradient color changes, this might actually be a favorite way to go. That said, consider also the use of embossed polycarbonate that adds a three-dimensional look. Lit from the interior, these cabinets are perfect for adding ambient lighting.
