A heritage village that lives off its own character
Devonport's appeal to both locals and visitors is tied up in its heritage streetscape, so shopfront signage that respects the village character tends to perform better than anything that looks out of place against the villas and older commercial buildings along Victoria Road.
A meaningful share of foot traffic arrives by ferry rather than car, which shifts the brief slightly — signage aimed at someone walking up from the wharf, taking in the whole street, rather than someone driving past looking for a specific address.
Being a coastal suburb, the same salt-air durability considerations that apply on the Takapuna side of the Shore apply here too — fixings and vinyl grade matter more a block from the water than they do further inland.
