Custom 50mm Pixel Globe Light for Letter Signage – A Unique Project Story

At Xuanan Lighting, we believe that the most memorable projects come from understanding our clients' unique visions and turning them into reality. Recently, we had the pleasure of working with a client on a custom letter signage project — and the result was something truly special.

The client needed a distinctive lighting solution for their custom letter signage. They wanted something that would stand out, be durable enough for outdoor use, and deliver stunning visual impact. After careful consultation, we recommended our 50mm Pixel Globe Light (XXA-5012B) — a versatile, high-performance solution that perfectly matched their requirements.

Here is how we brought their vision to life.


The Challenge: Custom Letter Signage with a Unique Housing

Letter signage often requires lighting that fits seamlessly into the letterforms while providing bright, even illumination. The client's design called for a distinctive globe-shaped housing — commonly referred to as a "lamp cage" or "lampshade" in the signage industry.
