For the Chandler retail project in Georgetown, Texas, we used materials that would convey the desired “contemporary ranch”: limestone (cladding), (faux) rusted steel, galvanized steel. This identity was carried through other components in the system:
In order to properly illustrate the sign, I created the rusted iron and stone textures from photos I took in the shop, and out in the field.
This SketchUp model of the proposed multi-tenant pylon sign was done as an excersice in presenting a sign concept in some form of context. That “hand drawn on rough paper” feel was accomplished through both SketchUp and Photoshop.
