Local shop Peninsula Signs was recognized in a national competition this month for its brightly coloured 3-D work on Sidney candy store Lolly Gobble.
Peninsula Signs was awarded runner-up in the Sign Systems category of SignMedia Canada magazine’s national sign competition.
“It’s definitely a pleasant surprise, that’s for sure,” said Ryan Grealy, Peninsula Signs designer and digital print operator.
He said that the company just started producing 3-D work last October, with the sweet shop as its first client.
The sign system, essentially the entire storefront, entered into the competition included a large 3-D candy hanging sign, a 3-D lollipop sign, window dressings and a wall mural.
Grealy said that they are hoping to get more multidimensional work from the recognition provided by the contest, as they integrate 3-D into their existing services.
