Pylon Signage - What Is It?

Pylon signage is the perfect way to let your business get noticed from great distances. They are similar to monument signs, but they are much taller, giving your business excellent visibility.

Pylon signs are perfect if your building cannot be easily seen from the road or if you want it seen along a major highway. Your pylon sign can tower above your competitors and be seen by an extensive audience.

Pylon signs are the best choice for businesses such as shopping centers, fast food restaurants, gas stations, supermarkets, and any other company looking for maximum visibility.

 

1. Stands Up on Its Own

What’s not to love about this great pylon signage for Mahoney Family Dentistry?You won’t miss the message that this is a dentist's office!

The bright colours attract your eye and the cleverly balanced tube of toothpaste points the way to this family practice.

We’re not sure which of the dentists is shown holding up this cleverly designed sign, but we are pretty confident that it can indeed stand on its own!

 

2. Firm Foundation

This great pylon sign just screams solid, trustworthy and dependable. Why? It’s a combination of a few things.

Blue is a calming colour that feels non-threatening and evokes tradition. It is peaceful, secure and orderly. For advertising purposes, it can “project an image of security."

The sign is also on a very firm foundation that appears to be made of a sold stone or a marble base. In combination with the blue colour, this solid base really gives you the sense that you can trust this business.

 

3. Clean, Sleek Look

We love how this pylon signage uses very few words, giving it a clean, sleek look. Often pylon signs can seem a bit busy and crowded with multiple businesses displaying their brand.

This example from Corel Draw Community Galleries, however, uses minimal text to its advantage. The slight angling of the left pillar also adds some great visual appeal and the colour selection is quite striking.

 

4. Light Up Your Life with This Pylon Signage

This next great example of pylon signage incorporates a very clever use of lighting to achieve its appeal.

A combination of illuminated letters and backlighting work together to give this beautiful pylon sign a satisfying soft glow.

The choice of golden earth-tone colouring elegantly complements the surrounding street lamps and the simple yet modern leaf patterns add to its charm.

 

5. Don’t Be Afraid of Colour

This next great pylon signage example isn’t afraid of a little colour and neither should you. Actually, there is a lot of colour here in this unique sign for Benedict Park Place, an upscale apartment complex in downtown Denver. Still, it really works!

If you really want your sign to stand out, then a neon lime green sign will certainly do just that. Add to the striking colour a very interesting pattern of cut-out circles, and you will have a great custom sign that will surely get you noticed.

 

6. Mixed Media

This next great looking pylon signage uses a mixture of different materials and design elements that work together to make a very pleasing end product.

You would think that this eclectic combination of stonework, smooth cement slabs, vertical and horizontal lettering, and different fonts would seem out of place. However, Benchmark Foam has done an excellent job of making all of these separate pieces work together to form one cohesive unit.

The most amazing thing about this sign apart from its beauty is that it's actually made out of expanded polystyrene (EPS) - or Styrofoam - and not traditional masonry.

 

7. Fun and Whimsical

This next pylon sign for Horst Signs and Truck Lettering is fun and whimsical. Why is is so playful? First of all, it's not your traditional rectangular shape - it is curvy and swirly looking.

Secondly, it goes outside the boundaries of the sign with colourful paint splashing out and seemingly heading to the ground. It's also an illuminated sign and, when lit up, glows with the colours of the rainbow.

It’s important for a sign company to have a great sign for their own business - and this company certainly does!
