If you're into comics, sci-fi, horror, anime, gaming, or cosplay, Fan Expo would definitely be your kind of place. The Hazelnut Inn is again showcasing our unique themed lodging at the Expo. Traffic was brisk with throngs stopping at the booth to marvel and inquire about the Inn. Through the day, we met many who have seen it online, passed by as it was being built and those who have had the wonderful experience of staying in one of the finished suites. The EXPO is on at the Canada Place Convention Centre through Monday.
YOW!
This morning, we wheeled the giant ‘W’ out of the shop to make room for the next letters to be fabricated. The letters will still get a pencil rod armature welded into the front space, and then we will hand-sculpt the woodgrain inserts. We are making great progress and look forward to picking up where we left off after the long weekend. Stay tuned…
SEGD visit
This evening, we were pleased to welcome a group from SEGD (Vancouver chapter) to our studio for a tour. SEGD is an acronym for Society for Experiential Graphic Design. It is the global, multidisciplinary community of professionals who create experiences that connect people to place. We toured the group through our studio, shop and the Hazelnut Inn, enjoyed some pizza and shared stories about our particular way of doing business in this field. It was a fun visit!
