Project Overview
Apex Signages was engaged to design, fabricate, and install multiple signage elements at Bukit Timah Community Club in Singapore. The scope covered 3D acrylic logo and text, a large jointed acrylic fascia sign, a reverse UV-printed clear acrylic panel, and an illuminated aluminium landmark standee.
Special attention was required for multilingual typography—particularly Tamil text—to ensure linguistic accuracy while maintaining consistent proportions and a clean architectural finish across all sign types.

Installation Process & Safety Compliance
All signage components were installed on-site by Apex Signages’ team using secure anchoring methods suitable for public buildings in Singapore. Spacer-mounted acrylic panels were aligned for consistent standoff spacing, while larger fabricated sign elements were positioned to achieve straight sightlines and clean joints across the full fascia length.
Works followed standard work-at-height and site safety practices, with careful coordination to minimise disruption to community operations during installation.
Lighting & Visual Impact
The landmark standee features a front-lit LED system that delivers even illumination across the sign face. This improves visibility in the evening, strengthens the landmark presence of the facility, and maintains a neat, non-glare appearance that suits a public-facing environment.
Challenges & Solutions
Challenge: Tamil lettering can look visually different depending on font selection, which may affect readability and accuracy.
Solution: Our team hand-traced the Tamil characters and refined the letterforms to preserve linguistic correctness while maintaining the intended design proportions. This ensured the final signage remained culturally accurate and visually cohesive.
Results & Client Feedback
The completed signage set delivers strong clarity, durability, and a professional finish suited for a high-traffic community environment—combining 3D lettering, crisp UV graphics, and illuminated landmark visibility.
Client Review
“Great working with them. On time, efficient and well finished.”
SEO FAQ – Signage in Singapore
What materials are commonly used for community club signage in Singapore?
Acrylic and aluminium are popular because they are durable, easy to maintain, and produce a clean professional look for public facilities.
Is LED lighting suitable for outdoor landmark signage?
Yes. LED front-lit systems are energy-efficient, bright, and ideal for long-term outdoor visibility—especially for landmark identification signs.
Can you produce multilingual signage (including Tamil) accurately?
Yes. We verify layout and letterforms carefully, and for complex scripts we can refine artwork by hand tracing to ensure correct character shapes.
How thick should 3D acrylic lettering be for readability?
For most indoor and sheltered outdoor applications, 8–10mm thick acrylic lettering provides a strong 3D effect and good legibility.
