Soca BJJ Storefront Signs

Exterior signs for the Soca Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu academy in Glen Cove. Two blade signs hang from iron brackets on the stone front, each with the round Soca logo and the academy name in raised letters, and a long BRAZILIAN JIU-JITSU panel runs above the storefront windows.

The lettering was modelled in CAD with locating pegs on the back of every letter, then 3D printed in white and red. The wood panels were finished in black, a paper template set the peg holes, and the pinstripe border was painted by hand before the panels went up on the building.
