"I did the traditional gold leaf lettering for San Francisco City Hall, right where you walk out after you're married," he says.

Regardless of the method, he thinks the goal of sign making should always remain the same. "What's the best way to do something that creates the human effect that we find appealing?" He says. "Graphic design is beyond just pictures. It's a whole ambiance of how we present ourselves and how we want to be seen."
