neon lettering
Bright tube signs
Neon lettering is text formed from neon signs—glass tubes filled with gas that glows when electrified, producing distinctive bright colors.
The term covers both actual neon signage and designs that mimic its aesthetic: The bar's neon lettering buzzed and flickered.
Neon lettering evokes mid-century Americana, urban nightlife, and retro commercial aesthetics.
