The builder, Duel Kloot, for the Hazelnut Inn, grabbed some cool drone shots of the construction site recently. It looks very different from this angle! The complexity of the construction and the many angles and curves are readily evident from this elevation. This is just the first level of the concrete work.All of the construction workers are having a lot of fun on this project and will undoubtably look back with pride for many years to come.
Puzzling Puzzlers
The framers are having blast over at the Hazelnut Inn worksite. Every wall and suspended slab is carefully being puzzled out and put in place. It won't be long until the concrete is poured and then we will get to have some fun too!
Planned planting
I've long preached that a sign can be anything that effectively draws attention to a business. The actual name and logo on the sign is definitely important but there are many other things that can dramatically add to the desired impact and memorability. One of these elements is the landscaping around the building and sign. As sign makers we are limited by the regulations which control many aspects of the signs we build. This includes size. Through clever landscape design we can focus a whole lot of attention to the business without any restrictions. Our own business is a good example. The sign measures 4' x 2' and conforms to the local regulations. The visual impact of the building (our house) and colourful landscape multiplies the effect many times over.
