Store Name - Sardinia


Whilst on holiday in Sardinia, I came across a really nice store facade in the old town of Alghero. The store's name is 'stone' and they have carved the name out of that material and placed it in a clear case on the shop front. I think it's simplicity gives it a classy and diverse edge, but also makes it look expensive and good quality. It's also good to see signage being made out of natural matierals instead of synthetic ones, such as plastic.

Cool way to go about shop signage, However you really dont want that breaking off and falling on your customers.
Its just refreshing to see something different like that from time to time.

A good way to make your shop stand out from the rest, totally agree on safety for customers...Nice idea to show effort in promoting and displaying the shop.

this is a really interesting way to promote you shop, it attracts the right amount of attention, yet not being understated.
