The latest in our Capri sign series

2 Apr 2011

Here’s the latest in our Capri sign series, this one celebrating The World According to New Orleans (design courtesy of Sally Coleman, with an image from Noel Rockmore’s painting, The Magician’s Silhouette). This is a new tradition for us: painting a sign to replace the old Holiday Inn sign at the Capri — you can see the version we made for Immaterial in 2010, plus the first one we ever did in 2005 for Yo La Tengo. Rob Crowley and Susannah Lipsey did all the heavy lifting on this one, and it turned out amazing (we made it the day of the opening).
