Two-color halo-lit channel letters
A 120-inch-wide interior sign specified with blue and green rear illumination. A finished workshop close-up shows the painted return, exposed acrylic edge, and mounting studs.
The brief
Two colors in one halo-lit layout.
The artwork called for blue and green sections across the same sign. The production file specified matching paint colors for the faces and returns, with an acrylic edge visible behind the metal.
Lux assigned green LEDs to the green sections of the artwork and blue LEDs to the blue sections. The workshop lighting check showed both colors on the assembled sign.
Can halo-lit channel letters use different LED colors in one layout?
Yes. This build used blue LEDs behind the blue sections and green LEDs behind the green sections. For a similar build, mark the LED color on each artwork element and confirm the paint and lighting colors separately before production.
