Signage & Facades

Ingles Porter Building

This copper facade is on the historic and newly restored Ingles Porter Building, another Forest Grove listed historic structure. It was completed this year. Eric's copper facade replaces the original tin facade from the 1890's which was removed in the fifties to "modernize" the building. Working from old photographs and fragments of the original facade, Eric  designed and built the new version, all of copper with some brass ornamentation. It's forty four feet long and the center sign gable is ten feet high.

Centro Cultural

Centro Cultural Entry Sign

Eric donated most of the time and materials for this sign/facade at Centro Cultural. The building is in Cornelius, Oregon and serves the needs of the local  Hispanic community. The sign/facade is of steel, stainless steel, bronze, brass and copper. Eric incorporated their logo, which has its origins in Aztec culture, with their name, keeping a Spanish feel to the work and conforming to the entry of the building from inside the courtyard.

This is on the street wall of the building complex and is made of bronze, stainless, brass and copper and measures about ten feet across, ten feet high.

The Valley Art facade is 45' long and is made of copper, brass, stainless, and bronze. It is my design. Their building is a thirties Safeway building of cinder block. They wanted to fit in better on Forest Grove's historic Main Street, so they hired me to give their building definition.
