Site Survey Project #25 - Tire Tape

So this is the last one of these for a while. I had done 35 of them originally but I've gotten bored with them and felt like doing all 35 was beating a dead horse to death. So this is it for now. I may do more next year or so if I feel like a performing an equine resurrection so I can beat it to death some more.

Source Photo - Pretty obvious, a tire. When surveying a vehicle for applying graphics I'll often take a close up of the tire or some other part with a tape measure to use to scale everything up.

Now it's time to drive this series off into the sunset.

Site Survey Project #24 - Investors Unite

Source Photos - Doubled up two photos on this one, each of the support structure that was part of a large sign / awning structure that cantilevered off the front of a building. Often times the lines between a sign and other architecture can get pretty blurry.

Site Survey Project #23 - Harborside

Source Photo - A new apartment complex that was under construction. We were proposing a new sign to go on this entrance tower. At the moment this shot was taken the building was in a partially skeletal phase.

Site Survey Project #22 - Pink Grill

Source Photo - A roof mount channel letter set. Not much else to say except this is one of my favorites in this series.

Site Survey Project #21 - Fickle Picket

Source Photo - This was a revisit to a sign we had built and installed a few years prior. There was some maintenance required and this shot was noting the condition of the paint and wood. Nothing a fresh coat of paint won't fix.

Site Survey Project - #19 Door Mon

Happy Monday! Here's another image from this series.

Source Photo - Noting the lettering style on a door that we would need to replace some numerals on as the hours of operation changed.

Site Survey Project - #18 American

Source Photo - An old sign at a veterans' hall. Hence the all American KFC color scheme. Everyone wants to update to a fancy new LED display until they find out how much they cost and that county code cracking down on animation or scrolling text makes them not so alluring anymore.

Site Survey Project - #17 Dulaney Blue

Source Photo - This is one of my favorites in this series. This was an existing sign that had a pipe bungee corded to the base of it. I presume they had some sort of flag or other sign they would stick in the pipe from time to time. This sign was pretty beat up. Located on a median at an entrance to a facility, I imagine it had multiple encounters with vehicles.

Site Survey Project - #16 Capital

Source Photos - Two shots of an ATM machine that we were producing graphics for. One of the outside and one of the "guts". Not only was this a money machine but for a financial client so this one has money written all over it. I'll start the bidding at 1 million dollars *insert maniacal laughter ala super-villain here*.

Site Survey Project - #15 Oliver Pratt

Source Photo - An ale house in town we do a lot of work for. This is a corner of the building they were considering placing a sign. This was my way of noting an existing light that could potentially be utilized to highlight a new sign.

Site Survey Project - #14 Brothers Fall

Source Photo - This was the side of a building where the client had already built a support frame for a banner that was destroyed by wind. We provided a more rigid and lasting solution for their billboard. I remember that it was autumn when I shot this and somehow the textures of this wall reflect that seasonal sense to me.

Site Survey Project - #13 Bed Red Sky

Source Photo - Another cabinet silhouetted against a sky with power running to it in the air. The face had fallen out of this one and the client confided in me the person who installed it was a crack head.

Site Survey Project - #12 Caribbean

Source Photo - A Caribbean style restaurant where we were looking at placing a set of channel letters. Hence the use of Caribbean colors on this one.

Site Survey Project - #11 Bonded Sky

This week most of these will be looking up a bit skyward.

Source Photo - An old exiting cabinet that had power run to it up in the air. Always wary of these old beasts. Wires silhouetted across a sky are always nice to look at though they make me a little nervous.

Site Survey Project - #10 Ruxton Nation

Source Photo - An existing sign cornice that we may have needed to match for another sign to go in the same neighborhood. Don't remember what exactly Obama was doing on the front page of the newspaper that day, but this was shortly after the election. There was snow on the ground and layered on top of everything.

Site Survey Project - #8 SOM POV

Source Photo - A certain well known medical school in town needed to have a lot of sidelights at the entrance to rooms frosted out so people could not see in but light could still pass through. The rooms also had a lot of windows on one wall that directly faced an apartment complex. They wanted to have those windows also treated so that the students could see out but the residents of the apartments would not be unnerved to look across the way and see the students working on cadavers. We treated the sidelights but I don't know what they ended up doing for those windows.

Looking through multiple portals at once: This was looking through the sidelight, which had the dot pattern on part of the glass, through the room and out the window to the windows of the apartment across the way.

Site Survey Project - #7 Sutton

Been out of town for a few days in Tulsa with family, hence the lack of posts. We're back after a long day of traveling through airports so here is the next in the series.

Source Photo - This is on the roof of a high rise apartment building. They were considering placing their logo on the side of this mechanical systems structure. It would be visible from miles around. Ownership in the property changed and interest waned.
