5 Ways You Can Use Signage to Make Your Business More Fun

Business signage doesn't just have to be about telling people who you are and what you do. It can build culture, create atmosphere, showcase your personality and even bring playfulness into your workplace. In short, it can be fun! From carpet shops to car showrooms, our signage can turn your business into destination people want to talk about.  

At Project Group, Yorkshire’s trusted signage installation specialists, we’ve seen first hand how fun, creative signage can transform a business. From interactive vinyl walls to vibrant light-up features, here are five brilliant ways to bring more fun into your brand using signage.

1. Create Interactive Vinyl Walls (Perfect for Kids… and Adults!)

Interactive signage is becoming more and more popular in retail and hospitality and vinyl wall graphics are one of the most simple and affordable routes to it. Think:

• Colour-in vinyls for waiting rooms

• Maze or puzzle walls for children’s play corners

• Photo-op backdrops for social media sharing

• Scratch-off or peel-to-reveal graphics for product launches

These vinyl installations turn passive spaces into playful experiences that encourage people to linger, engage, and share content online.

Project Group’s team can design, supply and install high-quality, durable wall vinyls that are easy to replace or refresh with new campaigns or seasonal themes.

2. Add Inspirational Light-Up Signs to Offices & Workspaces

Illuminated signage isn’t just for shopfronts! It’s increasingly used inside workplaces to boost creativity, morale, and company culture.

LED neon-style signs can highlight:

• Company values

• Motivational phrases

• Welcome messages

• Brand colours and slogans

You could even gift bespoke signage for long service anniversaries, imagine their nickname in lights for their home office - what a fun gift! 

They’re eye-catching, energy-efficient, and instantly create a modern, upbeat environment. Project Group installs illuminated signage across West Yorkshire offices. From LED halo letters to full neon features, we help businesses brighten their interior branding.

3. Use Floor Graphics to Add Playfulness and Direction

Floor signage is practical but it can also be fun. With the right design, you can turn navigation signage into an experience.

Ideas include:

• Footprint trails leading customers through your shop

• Hopscotch or games for children

• Directional arrows with humorous text

• Themed floor decals for events or campaigns

Floor graphics are an affordable, quick way to change the mood of a space and Project Group’s anti-slip, commercial-grade vinyl ensures they stay safe and durable.

4. Introduce Quirky A-Boards and Pavement Signs

If you want something fun that attracts attention before customers even walk through the door, a quirky A-board can do wonders.

Use humour, bold colours, or eye-catching illustrations to stand out on the high street. Think:

• Puns

• Sarcastic slogans

• Chalkboard doodles

• Seasonal jokes

In competitive Yorkshire high streets like Leeds, Wakefield, Castleford and Huddersfield, a witty pavement sign can stop foot traffic in its tracks.

Project Group supplies and installs custom pavement signage that reflects your brand personality while staying durable enough for UK weather.

5. Create “Instagrammable” Moments With Branded Feature Walls

Let your customers do your marketing for you! A bold, branded feature wall creates a built-in social media backdrop, perfect for:

• Salons

• Gyms

• Bars and cafés

• Retail shops

• Event venues
  

These can include:

• 3D lettering

• Illuminated signage

• Vinyl patterns

• Faux greenery and flowers

• Themed graphics

A fun, impactful feature wall encourages photos, tags, and organic brand exposure. Plus, Project Group’s installation teams handle everything from wall prep to mounting and lighting so it's super easy to bring a feature photo wall to your business.

Why Fun Signage Works

Fun signage isn’t just decoration, it’s clever marketing. It:

• Enhances customer experience

• Encourages return visits

• Boosts social media engagement

• Strengthens brand identity

• Makes your business stand out from competitors
