Awnings

      Awnings

           Another mainstay of the commercial cityscape is the Awning. Awnings are dynamic in
           that, beyond their high effectiveness as signage, they also add to a building's
           architectural aesthetic. Their three dimensional nature gives them a great visible
           advantage from many different angles. Awnings offer a multitude of choices: from size,
           shape, and color; illuminated or non-illuminated, to being functional shelter from the
                                         elements or a purely decorative feature. Add the feature of illumination to provide a
                                         sense of security for your customers.

                                         Awnings begin as a skeletal framework of metal tubes (usually aluminum) over which is
                                         structured a durable fabric. Awnings sometimes house electrical light fixtures and can be
                                         decorated with a variety of colors and any type of design.

                                         Awnings are particularly useful in areas of abundant pedestrian traffic because of their
                                         effectiveness as shelter. They are often better received as sign solutions in areas of
                                         historical or cultural preservation.
