Makers are invited to be involved in the production of our new giant logo signage where the new logo has been broken up into bite sized tiles with digital templates available to download, print and make.
The tiles will be collated together and displayed proudly on our wall. It should make an interesting focal and discussion point for visitors and new members.
Bite size “maker tiles” that make up our new sign.
Our giant logo will be just over 1 metre in diameter and will consist of 38 individual tiles. They will be attached to a backlit piece of painted plywood:
We want it to be constantly evolving where members new and old are invited to replace tiles periodically, eventually leading to many more displays.
