  • should lettering read up or down on both sides of a vehicle?

    What would you say is correct.
    when fitting graphics to the side of a van on a 45 degree angle
    On one side the text reads up and on the other would you still lay it reading up or lay it reading down so it follows the same pattern.
    Cheers

    Same pattern for me as well. Used to have my old van done like that.

    For me there is no rule, if it looks right, it is right. A simple name might look alright but a longer line of text might not.

    Ditto.

    It’s not always what IS dimensionally / conventionally right…it’s often what LOOKS right on the vehicle.
