'Brochier-Basso plage' is a sign in the style of the Parisian metro that I made for my friends Audrey and David.
They've turned their garden into a mini water park and this sign sits proudly in the beach hut.
The sign is completely flat with the tile border painted as trompe l'oeil. Swipe to the last photo to see the flat version.

I did this in the middle of winter and not wanting to stink out the house with oil-based paints, did the whole thing in acrylics.
This is custom lettering, based on Art Nouveau letter shapes and the seven millefiori underneath hold a significance for the B-B family.

Making progress on a custom sign for a local restaurant. Tomorrow’s task is to plane the maple to final thickness and get the first inlay glued in. #woodworking #inlay #customsign
