Bespoke traditional signwriting and architectural lettering for spaces that demand character, permanence, and human soul. Based in St Agnes, Cornwall.
The Anti-Plastic Philosophy.
—
Vinyl peels, fades, and generates plastic waste destined for landfills. Hand-painted signs don’t mind the elements. They age gracefully, settling into the fabric of your building to transform your storefront into a local landmark.
From Layout to Lettering: A Designer’s Discipline.
Dollar Signs brings together typographic precision and time-honoured craft. Founded by graphic designer and sign writer Jon Herbert, every project combines rigorous typographic principles with the raw authenticity of hand-mixed enamel paints and brush strokes.
We don’t use AI templates or shortcuts; every curve, serif, and drop shadow is drawn by hand, customised entirely to the architecture of your space.
Design-Led Approach:
—
Rooted in classic typographic history, balancing proper kerning with traditional layout design. Built for the Elements: Engineered to withstand the harsh Atlantic coastlines of Cornwall, from salt air to driving rain.
Authentic Execution:
—
Painted exclusively with premium lettering enamel paints and specialised ox-hair brushes for flawless durability.
