S.b When channel letters cannot be adequately accommodated, internally illuminated cabinet signs may be considered. t ❑ 6 Reader boards are discouraged. MATERIALS 4.c Materials used in the sign should complement the building being served by the sign. 01 • t L i COLOR ❑ 4.e Color for raceway -mounted channel letters, the raceway Nf shall match the wall color. Sign colors must be harmonious with each other. Sign colors must not clash with the site, when viewed in tp5 J" Gee, t, daylight and at night. t� Overly intense color, (such as dayglo or fluorescent colors), are prohibited.� v-( Use of three colors or less (black and white considered as colors) Additional colors may be approved if they contribute to the sign balance/unity. SIZE, SCALE, PROPORTION, AND LOCATION ❑ 4.b Signs may not exceed the size, height and setback requirements as outlined in Section 4.15 of the Albemarle County Zoning Ordinance unless sign has a variance . C REF CHECKLIST ITEM NOTES Appendix A ratio of 1/3 text to 2/3 wall area or 1/4 text to 3/4 wall ,t S;S r , �'' A.A area is a good working proportioning system for placing a' sign. Appendix Color, form, surface pattern, shape, and disposition of A.A.4 elements and openings in an architectural design can affect our perception of scale and can impact the appearance of a sign on a building. ❑ 9.d The wall sign's size must coordinate with the architectural element's size. The sign should not over -crowd the architectural element, the wall, or the sign area. Buildings and building elements should not be used as billboards. ❑ 9.a Wall signs must integrate with the building's architecture. The sign placement should not obscure architectural features or details, (such as cornices, windows, columns,'� i �S is �,sw pilasters and paneling). ❑ 9.d An appropriate height for channel letters in a 30" high sign band is 18". This allows 6" of unoccupied space above and below the letters. i 4" of clear space above, below, and to the sides of a channel letter sign is considered a minimum, with larger clearances required for larger sign bands. Degree of visibility, the distance from the Entrance Corridor, and the architectural design of the building/area will determine sign size, placement, and proportions. REF CHECKLIST ITEM NOTES D 4.d Lettering should be in proportion (font size and typeface e style) to the sign and the building. Use of three typefaces or less. 1 Additional typefaces may be approved if they contribute to i a balanced/legible/unified sign design. ❑ 9.e.iv The width of the outline must be in proportion to the width of the letter. An outline width of 1/8" has been found to be an } appropriate sign dimension. A l v A-- RADEMARKS, CORPORATE LOGOS AND GRAPHICS 4.f The ARB may require that the color and scale of standard templates for trademarks, service marks, corporate logos �� A — and graphics be modified. When used, trademarks, service marks, corporate logos and/or graphics should be incorporated as an integral part of the overall sign. S u External (or no) illumination is preferred for approved ra hics/lo os; 5.b internal illumination may be considered for approval on a case -by -case basis. LIGHTING ❑ 9.e.i External or no illumination is preferred for wall signs. S.f Any internal illumination is considered to contribute to visual clutter and will be limited. S.c Internal illumination design approval will be evaluated on size, balance, complexity, and distance from the Entrance Corridor. ❑ 9.e.iv The backgrounds of such cabinet signs must be made opaque zero light transmission). 1E REF CHECKLIST ITEM NOTES 5.e External illumination should be shielded and not create , j( Tare. j" I All external light sources shall be white. ❑ 93i Sign lighting (external) should be shielded so that it illuminates only face of the sign and does not shine beyond the edge of the sign. ❑ 93ii Channel letters with translucent faces must have no light spilling outward from the top, bottom, sides or back. Faces and returns of channel letters shall be opaque when back -lit (halo -lit). 9JV Cabinet signs shall have a non -illuminated background, or an opaque zero light transmission background. Cabinet signs shall be constructed such that no light spills outward from the top, bottom, sides or back. 5.g All illumination shall be non -blinking. ❑ S.h An exposed light source that forms the body of a sign, (such as exposed neon signs), shall not be used in the Entrance Corridors.
