Enquiry Are you after original artwork? Have you already got one? What will it be used for? A shop, an exhibition stand, a vehicle wrap, panel printing, 3d custom signs? Design A face to face consultation is always best. If that is not possible, then we can also do virtual meetings with Zoom for an instance. We will go straight to the point and not waste your time over jargon, setting the process off on the right track. Sign-off Once the design is completed, it needs to be signed off. We will then supply you with the files in various formats. In the majority of cases the design is tailored for a specific product but if a general identity has been designed, Platinum Signs can assist producing all your signage requirements.

Of course, the answer is: ‘it depends.’ The cost of the sign design will vary considerable depending on the complexity of the artwork involved, the requirement of presenting realistic mock-ups or not. We typically work based on an hourly rate. For vehicle signage design, we suggest having realistic mock-ups done prior commencing any work.

For simple artwork, such that used as safety signs, simpler panel printing containing mostly written information and basic imagery and / or logo, we can usually finalize artwork within the same day or the day after. For other projects, we can revert back. Naturally some projects are more demanding and also heavily rely on the concept and design given in depth and can take anywhere from 3 days to 2 weeks to be completed. Reach out to our sign design team for more information and help.

Unfortunately not, Internet-based images are not suitable for sign. They are just a starting point. We need high-resolution files, PDF or vector files to fabricate, CNC router or laser cut and for printing signs. Printing out of low resolution images would compromise the quality of the product we deliver. The image would come out all pixelated which would be a substandard product. But, you can source an image on the Internet as a starting point, and let our sign design team take that concept and work with you to create the necessary high-resolution files.

Absolutely! In many cases, clients outsource the design of their signage, or have a preferred design agency in Sydney or elsewhere, or we can refer you to design agency and independent graphic designers to achieve results in a speedy manner. Our friendly team of sign designers is always happy to discuss directly with your design team in order to streamline the processes involved, if needed.
