KENYA · GUIDE 0554 · EDITION 4.2
Shop signage artwork in Kenya
Prepare shop-sign artwork for an approved location and sign maker.
A CONCRETE EXAMPLE · ILLUSTRATIVE
Fictional signage-artwork SIGN-54 prepares a 1200×600 mm flat shop-sign design for a bicycle workshop, plus a scaled A3 approval proof. Approved content is business name, 'Bicycle repairs', phone and opening hours. The printer/fabricator supplies material, mounting and production specifications. Output is artwork only; structural design, electrical work, permits, ladder work and installation are excluded. The chosen 1200×600 mm dimension is an example client brief, not a recommendation for any real façade.
