Vancouver Signs l Frosted Glass Standoff Signs
Posted by Stephen Rye on Thu, Jun 16, 2011 @ 11:15 AM

Frosted glass is extremely versatile, used in everything from the elegant free standing sign we created for Evolution fine wines to directional signs and windows.
The effect can be created two ways:
- Application of a window film
- Sandblasting
Window film is traditionally used for larger spaces where privacy is the main objective. The windows we completed for Morgan Creek Sports Medicine Clinic is an excellent example of this. Removing large windows simply isn't feasible and certainly not a cost effective way to create privacy.
Sandblasted glass signs such as the Evolution Fine Wines sign are well suited to more artistic signs where the objective is to create something artistic first and practical signage second.
Typically these are smaller and are either free standing or feature signs such as the one below.

This sign actually is made by applying a frosted window film on the rear and brushed aluminum letters on the front. It is however a common style for frosted glass signs.
