Imagination and Technology. Our client sent us a design file to print on a small piece of acrylic and asked us, before we printed, to drill some precision holes with our CNC. We had little idea of what they were up to, but were amazed at their result.

We did this job in association with our long time friend, Chris Trisnan. Chris and his associate designed this for Louie’s by the Bay in Newport Beach. We decided to print the graphics on Etchmark film, keeping some transparency. It worked. Louie’s is named after Louis Zamperini, from Torrance, a WWII POW and war hero, celebrated in the book and movie “Unbroken.” The restaurant owner, Ron Salisbury, was a family friend of the Zamperini’s.

The bots may be coming, but this job was done by us "real deal craftsmen," not to be replaced anytime soon.

WORDS ARE IMPORTANT! (On signs, in print, and in conversation). One of these guys was the greatest copyrighter of all time. The other three have penned a few lines in their careers, and at one time worked for his agency. Do you know who they are?

Regulations are ever present. We do our best to make their reading aesthetically pleasing.

HANDLE WITH CARE. What would you pay for graphics on your $4 Million Dollar Ferrari Race Car for one day of viewing at a race? Paint job was $400k. Graphics affordable, but nerve wrenching nonetheless. All recreated from scratch, from photos years old, in record time. Excellent, excellent job, Corey (and Louie)! As the great Mario Andretti once said "to finish first you must first finish."

BAS RELIEF PLAQUE for Coach Dick Coury's memorial. Commissioned by the Letterman's Club at Mater Dei High School. Today's unveiling at MDHS, Santa Ana, attended by about a hundred friends, donors, and extended family members. Pictured are John Huarte, winner of the Heisman Trophy in 1964 while at Notre Dame, who played his HS ball for Coach Coury at Mater Dei; son Steve Coury, who played wide receiver at OSU who coaches now at Oswego HS in Oregon; and one of our resident designers who designed the 300 lb. bronze plaque. Some jobs are just more fun (and rewarding) than others.
