Adopt-A-Family Adopts a New Sign for Their Windows!
For most of us, Adopt-A-Family is an organization we hear about only during the Christmas season and pay no attention to any other time of the year. Although the organization is incredibly active during the Christmas season, they also work to help children and families in need during the Easter season and host many events and fundraisers throughout the year. Their motto, "It's all about the children", describes perfectly their intent to provide all children with happy holidays and memories.
Recently, there has been more activity than usual surrounding the team as they moved into Snowville plaza in Parma. This exciting move meant they would need signage, which we happily designed and installed. When the director called, she said she wanted to have something over the windows that would prevent someone from looking in, yet they wanted the ability to see out to know if a customer was on the way into there store.
The solution Epic Signs & Graphics provided was peforated window vinyl. There are many types of vinyls these days and this particular type has the ability to let light into the window yet provide a way to apply strong graphics as see in the above picture. Adopt A Family provided the graphics and our designs assembled them into a cohesive design you see above for an attractive window front. When you look closely at perforated window vinyl, you will see small holes punched through which is what allows you to see through the vinyl and yet block some of the light to reduce sun brightness. There are various ratios of hole space to vinyl material and they refer them as 65/35 or 70/30 and 50/50. The 65 or 70 is the amount of material while the 30 or 35 is the amount of hole space. This type if window graphic is prone to a reduced vibrancy since some of the material missing, so some image "pop" is expected to be missed, but when you have the right equipmeent such as Epic Signs & Graphics does, that problem is minimized.
See through window graphics are a good solution for some applications and situations, but ask an expert like Epic Signs & Graphics because some applications can pose problem with certain types of glass and too much heat, so be sure to get informed by experts. One way windows are a good solution for masking the ability see through windows from the outside, yet maintain the ability to see approaching customers. And as you can see, it is possible to have eye catching graphics as well.
