Free Exciting Design Process | Highly personal service | 100% legal & sustainable wood Grown in Britain
First of all, I make every UK house sign individually, they're personalised and bespoke, hand crafted and beautiful. Each one made from 100% legal and sustainable British 'Grown in Britain' wood. My workshop has a very low carbon footprint and it's even designed to have a light touch on the environment and to encourage a wildlife habitat, an eco-system all of its own.
Once I've finished making your UK house sign, you'll get the chance to see it through video and decide whether it meets your expectations or not. You decide whether to buy it or not - simple as that - every time

There are more examples and design options to consider pictured below:
With a period property you can either choose a traditionally accurate approach or a bang on contemporary 'natural' approach.
First impressions are everything, so they say.
So, if you're looking to elevate the appearance of your house sign, either for your own satisfaction or perhaps to make it more appealing for sale. Either way I'll make it for you, and make it look right.

A Before and after 'Contemporary & Natural'
house sign.
Before
The hand written old house sign serves a purpose, but you wouldn't look twice at it.
After
Here the carefully thought through design retains the country look and is contemporary and natural.
You choose the image.
I can paint just about anything,
the marine scene illustration featuring a gannet and herring gulls is hand painted by me, Robert, it's not printed or an overlay. You can choose almost any scene or subject.
Just tell me what you would like or send me a photo, and watch it come to life through the design process.
Worried about how well I'll paint it?
You can simply tell me what images you would like on your personalised house sign.
....and don't forget, when I've finished painting your scene/image, I'll show it to you through video. If it doesn't meet your expectations, you don't have to buy it - simple as that.
A special member of the family
2D hand painted exact portraits of your own animals, meaningful views and items of family significance.
Contemporary twist on the traditional, can elevate the image of your home with elegant text and hand painted wildlife images. In the Glen Albyn Lodge case, there are two pine martins, or the peacock below.
Anything from Traditional, Victorian, Georgian etc through Modernist, Brutal to Contemporary
and Natural.
So if you're thinking of a sign to match the architecture of your house, or you want to visualise your personality and personal taste, just tell Robert.

A sign like this one, tells your friends and neighbours just how committed you are. Children have great fun during the design process, choose the images you want - even design them yourself.

I shall always welcome your enquiry no matter how tentative. Either complete the brief form at the top of this page or send me an email.
For your house name or number to be read from a distance or for the parcel delivery person to read it from their van, I suggest the text needs to be a minimum height of 50mm. However, that can still look at bit mean. To have an impact, be well designed and be noticable, the height of the sign needs to be a minimum of 250mm. With illustrations, I often make house signs with a width of about 1m.
I always say British 'Grown in Britain' wood. Better for the planet, helps the British rural community, and if designed and crafted well, it will be an object of art to grace your home and to be proud of. Larch is my wood of choice for a UK house sign. Oak is often offered, but that will probably go a dirty grey colour and split.
Great! As an artificer, I shall be very happy to make a house sign to your design, tell me more.
All the wood I use in house sign making, is exclusively 100% legal and sustainable Grown in Britain. I also make everything by hand in my workshop in Scotland. I cover and supply the whole UK
Well, they do cost more than the ones designed by computer and made by robots. But they're not as expensive as you may think, so let me know roughly what you have in mind and I can tell you how much it will cost - for which there is no charge.
You can say that again! High quality design will tell a good house sign apart from an okay one. Here at Ingrained Culture, you shall be fully involved in the design. There are no software constraints.
