Phew, it’s been a full December! Matt has spent a chunk of winter break getting the two mobiles for the Portuguese architecture firm completed and shipped. Here they are in the shop. We can’t wait to see pictures of them installed!
Cafe O'Lei Maui Mobile in the Shop
The hanging mobile for Maui’s Cafe O’Lei is built and off to get powder coated!
Pittsburgh Residence Lighting Fixture
Earlier this year, we sent off this light fixture mobile to a lovely family who had built a mid-century style home in Pittsburgh. We just received these photos of the installed fixture, and we couldn’t be more thrilled to see it in its gorgeous home. Merry Christmas to us!
Behind the Scenes: Copper Mesh
Here’s the huge roll of copper mesh we’ll be working with to create the California casino ceiling sculptures! We’ve moved from mock-up phase to IT’S-GO-TIME phase.
Portugal Archicture Firm Mobiles
Back in October, Matt and his wife vacationed in Portugal. Ironically, while IN Portugal, the CEO of a Porto, Portugal-based architecture firm contacted Matt about creating some mobiles for the firm’s new showroom. Alas, Matt didn’t have time to jet up to Porto to see the space in person, but it will still a delightful coincidence. And he’s thrilled to be working on that project right now.
One mobile is a mid-century piece that will be a focal point in showroom’s two story space. Another single-story space will feature a mobile featuring a flock of birds. Below are some in-progress sneak peeks before they ship later this month.
Unfortunately, Matt won’t be installing the mobiles, but he’s hoping to return to Portugal sooner than later to see the mobiles in their spaces!
Stay tuned for more progress pics.
California Respite Center Ceiling Sculpture Renderings
Here are renderings for a project on our 2026 schedule. This will reside in the main lobby of a respite center providing short-term medical care for unhoused individuals. The sculpture will hang behneath a skylight, represent the canopy of a tree. We’re honored to be part of this project, and we’re excited to see it come together!
Cafe O'Lei Maui Mobile Renderings
We don’t like to play favorites, but we REALLY love Hawaii, so we’re happy anytime we get a project that will reside on the islands. This time, we’re creating a hanging mobile that will hang in Cafe O’Lei, a family-owned restaurant on Maui. The restaurant is right on the ocean, so we were tasked with something that evokes an ocean-like feeling. We think the wave-like shapes and movement of this mobile will fit the bill!
SMU Peruna Sculpture Image
We’ve taken some time recently to round up professional images of some of our projects recently, and we’re THRILLED to get this beautiful picture of our Peruna Sculpture, installed in Southern Methodist University’s 2024 stadium expansion.
Even More Copper Ribbon Mock Ups!
Hope you’re not sick of these, because there’s lots of copper mesh in our/your future!
Ocean Wave Sketches
We’re in the brainstorming process for an ocean-inspired mobile. Here are some quick sketches. More details coming soon!
