Local Prescott contractor Ability Remodeling hired Anastasis to design and fabricate large steel and wood signs to display at jobsites of work in progress. This is heavy-duty, high-quality signage that stands out from other cheap plastic contractor signs and is meant to convey the caliber of care Ability puts into their work.
I feel quite privileged to continue to refine the built environment for Overland International and their fantastic publication, Overland Journal.
Stephanie Brady of Overland brought me in last year to construct and design several indoor and outdoor elements that she had been dreaming up. She is a skilled “curator” of her desired look and feel for their office, based right here in Prescott, Arizona. How cool is that?
As a long-time 4×4 guy myself, and a photographer and outdoors enthusiast, I can’t think of too many places to work that would be sweeter than Overland International. They travel to remote corners of the world, play with the greatest off-road equipment, and then document it all through photography and film. Their high-bay multi-function office is really a garage with shiny toys like a G-Wagen and a Land Rover right next to the conference table, as well as numerous motorcycles including some iconic Urals. Oh yeah, and there’s a whole tree inside (which I helped install.)
The first project was a desk-height table created from broad steel bar and reclaimed glu-lam beam. Recently I made a companion table in the same spirit, this time a coffee-table height version for their work-lounge area.
The target wall is a eye-catch as soon as you step inside. Bright aluminum CNC letters form the logo against the dark background, with the signature “map scale” bar down the middle, with alternating polished and brushed sections. The target wall appears to float in front of the back wall, with LED ribbon utilized for even greater visual impact.
Movable sign post for the Revive Worship Center at FBC Prescott in Arizona. Mechanical cable-stayed steel crossbar holds up a locally-sourced ponderosa pine slab with lettering in charcoal and sealed with spar urethane. Heavy counterweighted base made of a cast concrete ballast caged in mild steel and allowed to rust naturally.
