Crowded. Really crowded.
White Crane Mobile in Motion
If you can forgive the messy background of piled-up boxes, check out our crane mobile in motion!
WHITE Cranes Mobile!
Well our black cranes mobile of turned into white cranes along the way. And we love how they turned out! We just finished assembling, packaing, and shipped it to the client. We can't wait to see pictures of it hanging!
Packaging the mobile was serious business.
Bon Voyage!
Wall and Ceiling Sculpture Installation!
This week we installed this wall and ceiling sculpture, just a few miles away from our shop. We're so happy with the result!
Detroit Hotel Mobile Model
For the Detroit hotel project, we created a scale model for the client. We had the shapes created by a local 3D-printing fabricator (which kinda makes us want a 3D printer...). Then Matt spent a good chunk of time hanging, balancing, and refining the model. Then he spent another chunk of time figuring out how to safely ship it! The good news is that it made it safely to the client. Phew!
Crane Mobile Prototype and Shapes
We're making serious progress on the origami cranes ceiling sculpture. First, we designed this prototype, to replicate the style of an origami crane out of metal:
Then we had a whole bunch of shapes laser cut. Here's the "body" portion of the crane:
And NOW, the body and wing shapes are at the powder-coater. Up next: assembly!
Detroit Hotel Mobile
We've got a crazy-busy summer ahead. Here's one of the projects in our queue. It's a 42 foot tall mobile made of fabric stretched over metal frames (kind of like our White Ribbons project from many moons ago). Se'll try to squeeze in time to share updates, so stay tuned!
Mixed-Material Hanging Mobile
If you tilt your head, squint your eyes, and look past the clutter and white board notes and random cords hanging from the ceiling, you can see how nicely this mixed-material mobile turned out. We loved putting the laser cutter to work on this project!
Children's Garden Outdoor Kinetic Sculpture
If you have a tiny moment to spare, check out this seven-second video of our outdoor kinetic sculpture in motion, along with joyful noises of children in Flagstaff's brand-new Children's Garden.
The landscape designer we worked with sent the kindest e-mail, saying "They're awesome and work spectacularly!" Shucks. We're just grateful we had the opportunity to play a role in this wonderful project.
Logo Mobile Intallation
Matt traveled to Virginia last week to install the logo mobile. Isn't she lovely?
