Display of 1. non-illuminated letters sign above the entrance to Northgate House, 1no. non-illuminated letters sign on external wall between the first and second floors of Northgate House and 1no. non-illuminated projecting sign above current TK max sign (Resubmission).

Our Response

The revised signage plans for this site are welcome however we still have a concern regarding the projecting sign which appears to take the unauthorised TK Maxx sign as precedent and which contributes to street clutter in this key historic location. Also whilst an improvement, the mounted letters facing the Guildhall still appear to be too big and are off centre. They should be central to the windows. The use of acrylic as material is not supported. It appears but is not clear that the pin mounted lettering is to be stainless steel (this needs to be clarified).
