Marquee light bulbs
Marquee light bulb set borrows features from vintage style art and 3D lettering. They are good for designing posters, and customers love how each letter provides sharp contrast against the dark sky.
The font has bright and dark sections showing areas of working and burnt-out bulbs. But you should not worry about some letters being invisible. In fact, the few working bulbs are enough to help a customer see the outline of a letter and read whatever you are passing over.
The fact that customers will get glued to the marquee letters that are not clearly visible and try to understand what they mean is an excellent marketing technique. This is because they concentrate on the letter making their brains record your brand’s information without obstruction.
Bucket font collection
In Turkish, bucket means bouquet, and these marquee fonts are elegant as a bouquet of flowers. The fonts are not as straight as Times New Roman or Arial, but some letters have curved out ends to closely resemble serif and sans serif styles.
The style cumulates decorative aspects with swashes to pair up with other fonts as well.
However, to make them, you must carefully work around each curve with military-like precision to make a perfect letter. Also, keep the letters on a smaller side to easily work on them.
Show time fonts
Show times are beautiful, bold, and heavy fonts. They are also referred to as open-type fonts and are excellent for high-rise buildings since they are very bright.
Each letter is individually created and sets the night tone on high knots with an ALL CAPS design.
Alphabet marquee letters
Compared to standard marquee letters we already know, the alphabet style is unique. Instead of having a transparent or translucent panel to hide the bulbs, in alphabet styles, bulbs are clearly visible. Each letter lacks the front transparent panel; instead, bulbs are arranged inside the box.
Alphabet style is quite common in hotels, malls, and clubs where the bulbs will be protected against elements. You can also use them outdoors, too, provided bulbs are waterproof.
Queen street display font
Another very inspiring marquee font is queen. The style allows you to combine several colors- the final art is spectacular. Yellow is the main color covering nearly 75% of the letter’s side facing the street. To improve its 3D appearances, a white strip of white runs on vertices.
Geometry
One way to give your billboard a finishing touch it needs is with geometry letter fonts. Whether you’re going for modern, retro, or purely decorative signage, these fonts bring additional intrigue and zest to your storefront.
The style is called geometry because letters are designed from straight lines, portions of a circle, triangle, and other polygons. It traces its roots back to Futura, designed by Paul Renner and published in 1927. Generally using them is clocking your business in Pythagoras ideologies, breathing life into the greatest mathematician of all times.
Bottom line
The next time you want to try marquee letters, go for any of the above font styles. Geometry’s mathematical aspects give the letters beautiful shapes while show time fonts are pretty straightforward for office buildings.
