Rules for window and glass graphics in Oban
Start with safety. Large panes and glazed doors that people could walk into need manifestation so the glass is obvious, a requirement reflected in Scotland's building standards guidance and, for workplaces, in regulation 14 of the Workplace Regulations 1992. Planning comes next: councils differ in how they treat window graphics, and while inside-the-glass work is often outside control or allowed, a listed building or conservation area can restrict larger designs. We confirm the marking heights and any planning points with you before you approve the proof.
