Signs of Saigon is a project documenting and investigating on urban typography in Saigon and beyond, with a special focus on sign painting and cultural practices. This website is meant to be a growing archive of visual encounters, stories and findings.

Signs of Saigon is driven by the genuine love for typography, scholarly work and preservation. The project was partially funded by RMIT Vietnam.

Signs of Saigon is always happy to find contributors. In case you are capturing hand painted signs or you have something else to share regarding this topic, please come back to me via E-Mail.

Yours, Steffi W. Neukirchen
