Ai: Neon Signs

Leave a comment

October 1, 2025 by mrgoldsack

Neon signs have been a fixture in society for nearly 115 years. From simple signage (Open & Closed), elaborate billboards, and even custom work for your home, neon signs are a wonderful medium for testing design and creative limits.

Did you know?
Vancouver has an incredible neon sign history. In the 1950s, Vancouver had 19,000 different neon signs in the downtown section which was second most in the world (even more than Las Vegas at the time!).

Today, this neon history is still preserved through the Museum of Vancouver and other preservation historians.


In this assignment, you will be using the Type Tool to create some neon signs.

For the demo/tutorial, I will be using this font – Neon.ttf
You can use any font that you want.
