Seea After spending three days installing the new custom display at Thalia Surf Shop in Laguna Beach, we realized a few things:

1) It's all about the love

2) Colt Bowden is a pretty talented guy

3) This display is pretty much awesome!

Big thanks to Nick, Casey, Josh the whole crew at Thalia for providing us the space and the opportunity to get creative. Love you guys!!


Sign painting requires a steady hand and some semi-toxic paints. Colt lays it on, nice & thick...

]]> It's only fitting to build a visually appealing display for Seea's striking swimwear, but that doesn't mean it's quick and easy. We could go out and find something pre-assembled, "made in China" that's ready to go, but we prefer to get our hands dirty, break out the sander, and do it ourselves! This custom display for Seaworthy in Carlsbad, CA started out rough, but was well worth the work!!

After a thorough sanding, boards were cut to measure against a simple redwood frame
The colors really came together on this one - dowels & bronze flanges complete the look
Dayton and Surfy Summer check out the finished display

Thanks again to Dayton, Elise, and the crew at Seaworthy for the prime window seat! Another great example of independent folk, working together to keep up the stoke!

Based off the success of our booth concept for the Inspiration LA show, we were convinced we could come up with something equally rad!

Based off the success of our booth concept for the Inspiration LA show, we were convinced we could come up with something equally rad!

 

After a quick trip out to the junkyard in Orange, CA, we headed home with a load of old fence boards with some intriguing graffiti, broke out the sander, and got to work...

Before and after shot. The cream colored paint underneath was a surprise bonus!
From concept to completion, the display starts to take shape!

The final product, complete with thrifty monitor and DVD player from the second hand store.

Not bad for a day's work! Where will this display end up, you might ask? Check back soon to find out!
