OUR COMPANY

We are renowned for designing the best neon, LED and custom signs for business in Seattle and across the country.

Our Experience

If you met one of us in line at the coffee shop and asked us to tell you about National Sign Corporation in ten seconds or less, here’s what we’d tell you:

“Signs aren’t just advertising; they’re art. Your company brand isn’t just a call to action. It’s also your story. That’s what we’ve been doing for over one hundred years. We make signs that tell your story.”

And you read that right! We’ve been crafting memorable signs across the US cityscape for over a century now. In our early years, we worked exclusively along the gritty city streets of turn-of-the-century Seattle. Today, we craft distinctive signage for companies across the whole United States.

Here’s what we’ve learned along the way about how to elevate signage to an art form.

Culture

Innovate each project with no exceptions.

A great sign luminesces with something more than electric light or activated neon gas. It sends out a crisp, bright beam of originality and purpose. 

A sign has to mean something. 

Imagine a passerby stopping to look at your place. Instantly they’re aware of your business, what you mean, and why you’re different. From the hot radiating welcome of neon to the infinite possibilities of LED and electronic billboards, we make signs that instantly transmit a blast of knowledge to your audience. A sign works when it’s a powerful idea made potently visual.  

Every member of our core creative team has decades of experience in commercial and industrial design. They’ve mastered the art of blending glass, light, and geometrical forms. But we’re also marketers and strategists, wielding knowledge of what makes customers tick to develop a cohesive visual marketing strategy.

It’s that delicate balance of artistry and artfulness that transforms brash to authentic, forgettable to iconic.

Great advertising happens
when art meets artful strategy

Longevity. A sign needs to last. The capacity to withstand time and taste guides not just our manufacturing but our design philosophy as well.

Conceptually, your sign needs to capture something innate about you, your business, and your customers. Nothing is more off-putting than a sign that screams an outdated message or tired aesthetic. But signs don’t just operate in the realm of ideas. The physical materials that make a function need to be tough, durable, and easy to maintain as well. This is why everything that National Sign Corporation does — from conceptualization to installation — is handled in-house. 

Metalcraft, paint, neon, wiring, and testing: All our teams work in direct contact with our graphic designers and marketing people. A sign has to do its job five… ten… twenty years from now. Our integrated approach to design and manufacturing makes that happen.

Design and manufacture both

Compelling signage starts with a promise

We believe that to tell a compelling brand story with light and form, you can’t let technology guide the process. Anyone with wire strippers and 110 volts at their disposal can blare brightness into the void, soaking retinas with garish light and filling frontal lobes with garbled confusion.

You deserve better.

Attention to Detail

We believe your business displays aren’t just about commerce. They’re a statement. We believe the cityscape your business inhabits isn’t just a marketplace filled with pedestrian tastes. It’s an art gallery for a discerning populace.

Experience

If we can agree to work together to be that ambitious; if we can work together to bridge the gulf between your authentic voice and a thousand glittering techno-possibilities, then we’re onto something!

We bring brand stories to light
with a radiant idea
made potently visual.
