For over 10
years I have walked past the old gong sign in front of my Kundalini Yoga center
in Phoenix, AZ. As the decade passed the sign faded in the Arizona sun. I knew
that I had the ability to recreate it with clay tiles. The Center for Divine
Awakening has brought me a lot of peace and happiness over the years. I really
wanted to give back to the center and bring the gong sign and logo back to its
original colorful glow. Because the clay tiles have been fired to 2200 degrees
in a kiln, the sun cannot fade the color, no matter how hot it gets in Phoenix.
Now it will shine bright forever. I hope that the new sign will attract new
attention and guide those who see it into a wonderful place full of new
possibilities.
The Center for Divine Awakening is located
at 15801 N. 40th St, Phoenix, AZ 85032. In the area of corporate identity,
I designed and constructed a new logo sign for the Center to replace the
existing one. For the design, I translated the Center’s existing logo into hand
cut and glazed ceramic tile. The sign is double sided so it can be seen from
both directions, and the ceramic portion is 36 inches in diameter. The metal
frame was fabricated and installed by E2 Innovations, a metal company in
Phoenix that I have worked with on many projects before.
