Rudy’s Barbershop: Redmond Art Design & Instal
When Rudy’s Barbershop opened a new location in Redmond, I worked with the owners and CEO to develop this installation combining a quote fom Albert Einstein -
"HAIL TO THE MAN WHO WENT THROUGH LIFE ALWAYS HELPING OTHERS, KNOWING NO FEAR, AND TO WHOM AGGRESSIVENESS AND RESENTMENT ARE ALIEN..."
with Tomohiro Nishikado’s Space Invaders. Using a grid system created between pegboard holes,
I developed a typeface using 3x3 pixel (nailhead) squares in the space between a square of 4 peg holes. One month and over 40,000 galvanized box nails later, this installation is a permanent fixture celebrating the tech community of Redmond, Wa.
