This is my office building and I worked with Wayne on this project. Thanks to Tiki Kiliki for the post! I work in a family business and we're an Audio/Video Systems Integrator for Commercial and Residential markets. If you want to know more about the business, visit http://www.islandsys.net. After we lost the canopy over the door to a hurricane in '04, we envisioned a completely new entrance to the building, and wanted to make something that incorporated our logo. So, we called up Wayne and got started on this "Building Identity Project". Wayne has made small recreations of our logo in the past, but never anything like this! It was really exciting to watch everything come together. The next plan is to do something similar with Wayne for our Home Theater Demo Room that we are remodeling inside our building. More news on that later, but we hope to start working on it early next year. You really need to see it in person to appreciate how massive it is. There are a lot of nice little touches, like cracks painted in the stairs and a hidden self-portrait by Wayne. It's pretty cool to come to work every day and walk through this entrance! The dimensions are: Complete Facade: Height: 15’ at the highest point Width: 32’ at the widest point Depth: 5’ under the canopy Tiki: Height: 12.5’ Width: 2’ Here's some really great photos of the construction process. If you've ever met Wayne, you know he's a real tall guy, so when you see him next to the Tiki you can tell how truly massive it is! Also, if an TC'ers are in the area and would like to see it or take pictures, feel free! We're at 225 Yellow Place in Rockledge, Florida. If you're driving on 95 through Brevard County (maybe on your way to the Mai Kai) we're only a few miles east off exit 195. Jimi
