Design Tips

Templates

We have produced a wide range of templates for free for you to download, use them to ensure that your artwork is the correct size. 

Colour

Use colour! Don’t go overboard which may end up looking messy and crowded but choose bright, bold eye-catching colours that stand out when on display! Avoid too many dark colours, especially at the edge of your boards, this can sometimes make the edges appear rough.  Always send your design in high resolution to get the best outcome. 

Shape

Remember, you don’t have to stick to one of our templated shapes. We can create any shape imaginable, so why not think outside the box? Create a foamex board in the shape of your logo or product.

Font 

If you are adding text to your design, choose a font that can be read from a distance. Keep it clear and legible.
