We’ve got a fresh project to espresso to you, and we’re brewing with excitement about how it turned out. This month, we had the pleasure of designing and manufacturing the stunning coffee shop signage for One Eleven, a new trendy cafe in Gosforth, Newcastle Upon Tyne,

If you’re into sleek, sophisticated signage (and a good cup of coffee), this post is for you. Let’s dive into the details of how we crafted a sign that’s as inviting and stylish as the coffee it represents.

DESIGN

The One Eleven coffee shop team came to us with a clear vision: they wanted a sign that’s as unique and inviting as their space. They were looking for something that would capture the essence of their brand—modern, classy, and a little bit luxe. We were up for the challenge and knew we could create something that would make a bold statement while remaining stylish and timeless.

MANUFACTURING COFFEE SHOP SIGNAGE

We combined several high-quality materials to create the perfect sign for One Eleven. We chose a rich, green powder-coated finish for the main panel. The colour gives off a fresh, earthy vibe—perfect for a coffee shop that wants to feel both vibrant and grounded. It’s subtle but sophisticated, ensuring that the sign catches the eye without being overpowering.

For the main logo, we used push-through opal acrylic. The opal finish ensures that the logo glows beautifully when lit, creating an elegant illumination that really stands out, day or night. It adds a touch of refinement and ensures that customers will easily spot the shop as they approach.

We also applied a luxurious gold ACM to the face of the sign. This sophisticated touch adds dimension and makes the logo pop, offering a bit of opulence without feeling too flashy.

To really bring the sign to life, we incorporated internal illumination, ensuring that the coffee shop’s branding shines even in the darkest hours of the morning. We also added a matching projecting sign to really boost visibility from different angles, helping passers-by know exactly where to find their next caffeine fix.

INSTALL

This signage project was a joy to work on, and we’re thrilled with the final result. The combination of materials gives the sign a luxurious yet approachable feel—perfect for a coffee shop that wants to attract a crowd while also exuding a sense of comfort and quality.

We’ve got a feeling this coffee shop is going to be a neighbourhood favourite in the months ahead, and we’re excited to see how it’ll light up the streets of Gosforth.
