Why can't signs be fun?

We take a little different approach than most sign shops when it comes to 'mundane' signs. These are the signs needed to inform and regulate things like parking and street signs and such. We don't understand why they most often are boring or mere afterthoughts to a project. We instead love to plan this kind of detail in from the start and believe they should be fun! They would certainly get a lot more attention if they were like this.

The first example is a street sign for a tourist development that I worked on about seven years ago. The second is a current project - not yet formally announced. 

With modern computerized tools, up to date methods and materials and a healthy dose of imagination anything is possible. And we are intent on making every one of our projects this interesting and fun!.

Dayna's special tree

This week we began work on a very special project. We were asked to come up with a sign for a memorial park for a four year old girl, Dayna Brooke. The family wanted something kid friendly and upbeat, a happy reminder of the child they love and miss dearly. We proposed a tree with the sign hanging in the bend of the trunk. Dayna loved ladybugs and so there will be four ladybugs on the tree for visitors to find. There will also be a tiny fairy door tucked between the roots. The design came from our hearts and the build of the feature will get the same loving attention.

Cruisin'

Juniper is growing so very fast these days and eager to try new things all the time. When she comes to visit, one of her fun activities is to go cruising on the chopper. I built the bike for Phoebe when she was young but it has been gathering rust for more than a decade. It's fun to go cruising!
