Aleigha: Timeless Sophistication

“Aleigha has such a timeless, elevated feel,” says Michelle Garrett, who works in Customer Service helping clients bring their interior signage visions to life. “It gives off this classy, high-rise-butler kind of vibe—sophisticated without being stuffy.”

The Aleigha collection exemplifies beauty in simplicity with:

  • Clean lines and sophisticated profile
  • Over 80 standard colors plus 14 wood grain options
  • Smooth non-glare acrylic or brushed finish faceplates with horizontal grain
  • A versatile sign design perfect for upscale properties

This is architectural sign design at its most refined—where restraint becomes a statement. For properties that value understated luxury, Aleigha delivers a wayfinding sign design that feels both current and enduring. The extensive color palette ensures perfect integration with any decor, while the ADA tactile signs maintain the collection’s clean aesthetic without compromising compliance. These customizable signs adapt seamlessly to any high-end environment, from boutique hotels to full-service resorts.

Botanica: Nature-Inspired Character

Michelle Garrett doesn’t hesitate when asked about her other favorite. “Botanica completely wins me over with its artwork options. The design elements give it so much character—this sign has the power to give an entire building its own personality.”

The Botanica collection features crisp, beautiful designs with:

  • Printed subsurface woodgrain for authentic texture
  • Nature-inspired accent options for room number and directional signs
  • Silver text and raised accent caps
  • Cohesive wayfinding system that feels organic and refined

What makes Botanica special is how it brings the outside in. These customizable acrylic signs don’t just direct guests—they create an atmosphere. The nature-inspired accents offer multiple sign design ideas, allowing properties to craft a unique identity that resonates throughout their space. For boutique hotels, resorts, or any hospitality property seeking to establish a distinctive, earth-connected brand presence, Botanica transforms functional braille signage into elements of biophilic design.

The versatility of this interior signage system makes it perfect for properties looking to balance natural aesthetics with modern functionality. Each customizable interior sign in the Botanica collection can be tailored to reflect your property’s unique connection to nature while meeting all ADA requirements.

Diverge™: Bold Vision

“No tame signage here,” is how we describe the Diverge collection—and Eric Reynolds, our Digital Print Lead, couldn’t agree more. Eric gravitates towards a sign design that makes a statement and Diverge delivers exactly that.

“The colors and the overall design stand out in a league of their own,” Eric explains. “The unique designs make them stand out and set them apart from others.”

Featuring customizable acrylic signs with unmatched flexibility:

  • Frosted acrylic faceplate in over 80 colors
  • Non-glare acrylic backplate in over 80 colors and 14 wood grains
  • Seven cut-out accent backplate options for added depth

Diverge’s bold elements create a league-of-their-own aesthetic that stands out in hotel lobbies, resort corridors, and branded hospitality spaces. This professional signage design challenges conventional thinking about what interior signage can be. For properties with bold brand identities—boutique hotels, destination resorts, or upscale hospitality venues—Diverge becomes an extension of their personality rather than an afterthought.

These modern signs represent some of the most innovative sign design ideas in the industry, proving that ADA compliance doesn’t mean sacrificing creative vision. The Diverge collection shows how customizable signs can be both compliant and captivating.

Facets: Precision Engineering Meets Art

Ask Hunter Higgins, Assistant Production Manager, about his favorite collection and he’ll tell you: “This may be a popular choice, but my favorite currently would be the Facets sign line.”

At HOTELSIGNS.com, pushing the boundaries of sign design isn’t just a goal—it’s a daily practice. The Facets collection represents this philosophy perfectly, with its bold, distinctive aesthetic unlike anything else in our product lineup.

“What truly sets it apart are the precision-cut angles, which create a striking sense of depth and dimension,” Hunter explains. “These design elements not only elevate the visual appeal but also make the sign a standout option for customers looking for something beyond the ordinary.”

Constructed from half-inch thick acrylic, each Facets sign features:

  • Irregular, diamond-cut surface that catches light from every angle
  • Precision-cut angles creating striking depth and dimension
  • Sculptural quality that transforms wayfinding into art
  • Compatibility with all HOTELSIGNS.com color schemes and woodgrains

The production process showcases HOTELSIGNS.com’s technical capabilities. “Watching the intricate angles come to life is a testament to the skill of our team and the capabilities of our equipment,” Hunter says. “It’s a proud moment for us to see such complex designs executed with such precision.”

The collection can be outfitted with any of HOTELSIGNS.com’s extensive color schemes and woodgrains, making it perfectly adaptable to any hotel interior while maintaining its unique geometric character. This is modern signage at its most innovative—where form and function achieve perfect balance.
