Start with a Clear Objective

What do you want your display to achieve? Whether it’s generating leads, launching a product, or enhancing brand awareness, having a clear goal will guide every aspect of your exhibit design. Keep this purpose in mind as you plan your layout, messaging, and visuals.

Incorporate Interactive Elements

- Touchscreens: For product demos, catalogs, or virtual tours.
- Photo Opportunities: Branded backdrops for social media moments.
- Live Demonstrations: Showcase your products or services in action. 

Leverage Finishing Techniques for a Premium Look

Finishing touches can elevate your display from ordinary to extraordinary. Award-winning techniques such as:
- Gloss or Matte Lamination: Protects prints and adds a sophisticated finish.
- Die-Cutting: Creates custom shapes that stand out.
- 3D Printing: Adds depth and tactile appeal.
- Textured or Metallic Foils: Adds a luxurious touch to your materials.

Designing Outstanding Art for Outdoor Flags

Best Practices for Outdoor Flags 

Outdoor flags are powerful marketing tools that catch attention with movement, color, and height. Whether they’re promoting your brand at an event, guiding customers into your storefront, or elevating your visibility at a tradeshow or festival, well-designed artwork makes all the difference.

At LARGEPRINTING, we want to help you create flag designs that look great and perform effectively in the outdoor environment. Below are best practices for designing art for different types of outdoor flags — plus tips on color, layout, and visibility.

Color & Visibility: Outdoor Design Essentials

Outdoor flags interact with sunlight, wind, distance, and motion — and your color choices directly impact visibility and effectiveness.

1. High Contrast is Key

Strong contrast between background and foreground elements ensures readability:

• Light text on dark backgrounds (or vice versa) increases visibility.
• Avoid subtle tones that blend together from a distance.

2. Bold, Vibrant Colors

Outdoor flags live in bright environments — vibrant hues hold up better outdoors.

• Avoid pastels that can appear washed out in sunlight.
• Saturated colors are easier to see at a distance.

3. Consider Natural Lighting

Remember that direct sunlight can desaturate colors — choose hues that still pop in bright light.

• Reds, blues, and yellows often maintain strong visibility outdoors.
• Test colors at full scale where possible.

4. Brand Color Accuracy

Use your approved brand colors with correct color profiles.

• Use CMYK files for printing (preferred for large format).
• Convert spot colors thoughtfully — and ask your LargePrinting.com rep for color guidance if needed.

5. Safe Areas & Clear Space

Provide breathing room around key elements so wind and motion don’t visually crush your design.

• Keep logos and text away from flag edges.
• Use margins to avoid distortion or clipping.

Use CMYK files for printing (preferred for large format)

We recommend using Adobe Creative Suite products to ensure the best quality prints. Canva is strongly discouraged as it is prone to produce problems with production art or lead to poor production results.
