Sandblasted Timber Signs
Sandblasted timber signs offer an ideal solution for clients looking to meet DDA requirements. The large, tactile graphics, maps and images can be easily used by the partially sighted but are also for use by the fully sighted. Production restraints result in a more simplified design approach – usually complying with good interpretive design principles!

DDA Style Sign

This tactile, sandblasted, timber sign also includes a Braille plaque and a more detailed printed map. It provides information on several levels and is a good example of this design approach. The Braille plaque can be used to tell a different story or perhaps include some verse.
