Had a quick look at the App. I think their plans for a huge shop sign measuring 7 by 9 metres (23 by 30 feet) should be rejected! It would go from just above the glass canopy to the top of the 1st floor, and be the entire width of the store. I think it could potentially look quite cheap and garish compared to the nearby stores. I'd say keep that either relatively plain, or if some hoarding was needed, rather than just a massive "Wilko" sign, it should be more graphical. Maybe some photos of the kind of products they sell, or a family using some of their stuff, say...
