Chicago possesses many admirable traits.
Anthropomorphized by Carl Sandburg (or was it legendary Cubs second baseman Ryne Sandberg?) as the "City of Broad Shoulders, " the city offers nearly inexhaustible cultural diversions on par with New York City.
However, the city pairs urbane tastes with an unassuming, Midwestern aura that makes it fertile ground for traditional craftsmanship.
Tony Janda has grown the Chicago-based Wooden Sign Co., which is located blocks from Wrigley Field, into a well-known company that caters to many of the Windy City's bar owners and restaurateurs.
For over forty years, The Wooden Sign Company has specialized in the design and fabrication of signs for the hospitality industry.
We are proud to have played a role in shaping the way many of our neighborhood bars and restaurants are perceived by the general public.
From the development of your graphic identity to the creation of signage depicting your identity, we can help your business connect to your customers in a professional and cost effective way.
For nearly 50 years, we have refined our craft to offer our clients high quality workmanship using the finest gold leaf available.
With gold leaf, you truly get what you pay for as the alternatives lack the brilliance inherent to 23k gold.
The leaf is applied to the surface once it has been sanded, primed, enameled and varnished with gold size.
Once cured, the gold is burnished to enhance it's natural shine.
If handled properly, the gold will not tarnish for decades and does not require a top coat.
Willows of Wadsworth - Wadsworth, IL - We created two of these monument signs to grace the entryways of the Willows neighborhood.
These sandblasted Cedar signs feature cnc carved willow trees, 23k Gold leaf lettering.
Wiltgen Residence Sign - Lake Geneva, Wiscosnin - The Wiltgen family commissioned us to create this custom sandblasted, Cedar sign for their new home in the historic Black Point neighborhood in Lake Geneva.
The sign features hand painted trees and the silhouette of an eagle which frequent the area.
HDU or High Density Urethane offers many benefits to interior and exterior signage.
HDU is a closed cell foam material that does not absorb moisture making it extremely stable and relatively unaffected by temperature.
HDU will not warp, rot, crack, or decompose.
It is lightweight and very easy to machine or carve.
By sandblasting it, we can simulate a natural wood grain look in the HDU as shown in the image on the left (West End Dental).HDU is considered to be environmentally friendly and meets the LEED requirements for obtaining USGBC and ICC 700-2008 building reqs.
