A facade color arrangement dominated by meaningful or legible letters, numbers, symbols, or other text characters.
A multicolor text surface is one in which any form of meaningful or legible text characters dominate the arrangement, including letters, numerals, hieroglyphs, symbols, or other signifying or pronounceable characters.
The characters can belong to any writing system and can include numerals or symbols. The definition is not restricted to alphabetic lettering.
The characters must dominate the arrangement. Small incidental lettering within a larger picture does not by itself establish a text-dominated surface.
