For most general large-format signs, our designers recommend using any of the following fonts: Helvetica Futura Bebas Avenir Proxima Nova Arial Open Sans

The best font for large signs is the one that is visible and readable from far away. By large signs, we mean any signage that is implied to be displayed and not picked up to look at it. Here, the best choice is the Sans Serif fonts. They are the leaders among all font families. Other decent options are Bebas, Helvetica, and Arial.

There’s a good reason why traditional fonts such as Helvetica, Futura, and Gill Sans are preferred in signage: they’re adaptable, legible, and can be visually striking with the right design elements. When selecting signage fonts, consider how it will perform in conveying the message and capturing attention.
