Big projects start with small prototypes. 👀

We've got a large parametric slat wall coming down the pipeline, so our team built this 2' × 2' prototype to validate our approach before fabrication begins. This miniature version allowed us to test different slot tolerances, refine the joinery, and dial in the perfect fit.

So, how does a parametric slat wall come to life?

It all starts with a 3D CAD model. That model is then sliced into the thickness of the chosen material, where the joinery and mounting system are designed. Next, the cut files are sent to our CNC router, which precisely cuts each piece. From there, it's like assembling a giant 3D puzzle—slotting every component together until the flowing form begins to emerge.

This is just the beginning... stay tuned as we take you behind the scenes of the full build from concept to installation! 🚀

Good Kerning vs. Bad Kerning 👀

Think letter spacing doesn't matter? Think again.

Join Trademark Designer Paul as he breaks down the difference between good and bad kerning—and why those tiny spaces can make a big impact on readability and design.

✈️ Have you been through the Boise Airport lately?

If so, you've probably spotted the model airplane and retro-inspired hanging sign we had the privilege of designing, engineering, fabricating, and installing as part of the Boise Airport's 100th Anniversary celebration.

The installation pays tribute to a century of Boise aviation history, with historical banners suspended from the airplane's wings that invite travelers to learn about the airport's evolution over the past 100 years.

While this timelapse makes the installation look quick, countless hours of design, engineering, fabrication, and teamwork went into bringing these pieces to life. From researching the airport's history to assembling the full-scale airplane in our shop, this project challenged our team creatively and technically every step of the way.

The next time you're traveling through the airport, be sure to arrive a little early and take a moment to explore the exhibit.

He shoots... HE SCORES! ⚽🙌

We finally had the opportunity to catch an Boise Pro Soccer match, and it did not disappoint. From the energy of the crowd to a beautiful Boise sunset and, of course, an AC Boise victory, it was an unforgettable evening.

What made it even more special was seeing the environmental graphic elements we engineered, fabricated, and installed come to life on game day. Watching fans gather around them, snap photos, and interact with the space was a powerful reminder of why we do what we do. These installations do more than communicate information—they help create meaningful connections between fans, the team, and the space itself.

A huge thank you to Against for the incredible designs and partnership throughout the project. Seeing everything come together and become part of the fan experience made all the hard work worthwhile.

And to top it all off—AC Boise brought home the win. We'd call that a pretty great night. ⚽🏆

Transforming walls into experiences, one panel at a time.

The final element produced for the Boise Pro Soccer stadium is this custom accordion wall which was designed by Against and developed, fabricated, and installed by our team. Built from vinyl-wrapped AluPanels mounted to strut channels, the installation creates a dynamic, dimensional experience from every angle.

But environmental graphic design is about more than materials and fabrication—it's about shaping how people experience a space. These elements help create a sense of place, giving fans a backdrop for photos, celebrations, and memories they'll look back on long after the final whistle.

We're proud to help transform stadiums into experiences and bring designs to life that connect people to a place, a team, and a moment in time.

Built to Rise. By Boise. For Boise. ⚽

One of the many branded elements throughout Boise Pro Soccer Stadium, this custom two-way blade sign was designed by Against and engineered, fabricated, and installed by our team.

Constructed with iZone panels (iZone panels are lightweight, durable aluminum-faced panels commonly used for signage and environmental graphics. Their smooth surface is ideal for vinyl applications, while their weather-resistant construction makes them suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.) mounted to strut channels, this piece does more than identify a location—it helps shape the fan experience. Environmental graphic design is about creating moments within a space that people can connect with, interact with, and remember. Whether it's helping visitors navigate the stadium or serving as the backdrop for a photo on game day, every element contributes to the overall atmosphere.

We're proud to have partnered with Against to help bring these designs to life and create an environment that celebrates the city, the club, and the community that supports it.

to this custom installation we fabricated and installed for the Western Aircraft hangar lobby! ✈️

Designed to make a lasting first impression, this feature piece combines dimensional fabrication, illuminated elements, and meaningful storytelling to celebrate the people, history, and legacy behind Western Aircraft.

The installation features backlit "We Are Western Aircraft" lettering, a custom Idaho map showcasing company imagery, and a landscape-inspired backdrop that reflects the company's deep roots in Idaho. Together, these elements transform the lobby into more than just an entryway—they create an experience that welcomes visitors while reinforcing the Western Aircraft brand.

From development and fabrication to final installation, every detail was thoughtfully crafted to bring the story of Western Aircraft to life.
