This complex looking sign is actually built from very simple components. By adding additional posts and experimenting with the relationships between them, we turned the supports into an interesting design element rather than simply a structural necessity.

The cabinet is fabricated with standard extrusion and aluminum faces, while the copy is routed out and pushed through with clear Plexiglas. Copper metallic vinyl is applied to the surface of the letters to provide a burnished effect during the day while allowing effective illumination at night.
