scheme info:
This was a very complicated request. Bernadette wanted the sign to appear as if it was a flame rising from the ground. There was also going to be local school children, poetry and a local well known poets 'work' running through the stone and the stainless steel. Hardscape received all the text and words and had to convert a difficult font type into CAD format (using our CAD drawing service) and transpose this information digitally to be produced in the Far East. The granite used was etched,the stainless steel lazer cut and black paint enamelled. We quality controlled each stage of the process even the packaging and loading of the vehicles used to ensure ease of lifting into place.

The base of the sign was clad in sandstone, again all the components CAD drawn by Hardscape and scheduled and processed accordingly.
