Classic Design Studios

Proud of all we accomplished this year , with much help from the wonderful circle of friends and family we have all around us. Happy new year!

We've done a lot of work for Chandlers Restaurant in Boise, Idaho over the years. Here are some new photos of different drum lights I designed and made for . Last pic also shows one of the bar cabinets made for this restaurant.

Thermoformed acrylic with aluminum rings and translucent wood veneer. Lit with LEDs. The largest one is 42” diameter.

Letters, letters, letters and some lights! We've been working on the signage and some lighting for Habitat Veterinary Hospital's new building in Boise, Idaho.

Steel, urethane foam, acrylic paint, LED lights.

TRAPDOOR arcade sign. Aluminum and steel construction with Neon ( by ) and LED illumination. This sign will find its home on the recently renovated M&N building in Astoria , Oregon. We got a sneak peak of this basement arcade recently, it is full of classic pinball and video games that hover over a glitter imbedded floor. Very fun!

Our other neighbors, Ming Studios, are getting a new sign too!

Steel, high density urethane, acrylic, paint and gold leaf.

For over 20 years we have been lucky to have Wil Kirkman of Rocket Neon as a studio neighbor and friend. Over the past three months we took it upon ourselves to secretly make Wil a new sign. Not an easy feat! to subvert Wil's predilection for snooping around, but we artfully dodged or redirected his gaze till late Friday, when we got this sign installed under the cover of darkness. 🚀

Steel, high density urethane, acrylic paint and gold leaf. 

Process shots to follow.

New handsome sign for Americana Pizza in Boise, Idaho. From hand drawn sketch to finished sign; all production under one roof in our downtown Boise location. Aluminum, acrylic and LED lights. Go eat pizza! 🍕
