GoTriangle Moss Art now decorates walls of headquarters
Custom Moss Art wall for GoTriangle in Durham, NC. #thesavageway
We had the honor of creating some custom art for a company called GoTriangle. Their new headquarters is based in Durham, NC and they called us when they wanted to bring some green, creative artwork into the space. GoTriangle Moss Art was the perfect way to transform their company logo into beautiful, green interior decor.
GoTriangle provides public transportation for the Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill area. This includes “regional bus and shuttle service, paratransit services, ridematching and vanpools; commuter resources and an emergency ride home program.” Learn more about their efforts to help commuters during a rapidly growing time in North Carolina.
The Artwork
The two pieces we created involved 4 colors of moss, 42 individual triangles, 2 walls, a traveling installer, and lots of love. In total, the two complete pieces covered a 6ft x 7ft wall and a 5ft x 7ft wall. From the start, the goal was to bring the GoTriangle logo to life. We looked at other marketing efforts they were making in the community in order to retain brand standards, but knew that there would be some restrictions on what we could do because we work with Moss – aka nature. However, the end result turned out not only on-brand, but looking awesome in the space.
The best part about these custom pieces is that we are able to provide a green element indoors without any maintenance. That means no need for a water source, drainage, a light source, or anyone to tend to the plants. By using preserved moss, we bring 100% real plants into a corporate office space and alleviate the headache.

To say that we are proud of this installation is an understatement. We were presented with a challenge and through ingenuity, we were able to create something that will stand the test of time. (Our team even had a little fun when installing the triangles – Check out this video. “They’re light green, they’re dark green, they’re lime green, they’re every color green”….. 🙂

New Moss Art for Craft Cakes CLT in Charlotte, NC.
Craft Cakes CLT is a Charlotte-based cake business specializing in made-from-scratch batters, creams, garnishes, and using local ingredients whenever possible. It is especially great for specific dietary needs like vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free lifestyles. The owner, Brigitte Oger, is such a vibrant, loving human and someone that we (Paula & Torrie) have had the pleasure of knowing for a few years now.
When Brigitte asked us to make her a custom Moss Art sign for her cake shop, we knew it had to be special (just like her cakes). We decided that her large 3′ diameter logo would work great on the natural-stained oak wood and in the dark, forest green moss. This combo would really capture the essence of her shop: plant-based and full of love.
We absolutely love how the piece turned out. You can see it every Saturday at the Plaza Midwood Produce & Artisan Market located at The Barn directly behind Pure Pizza (1911 Central Ave). Enjoy all of the local food, treats and products and then see this awesome Moss Art in person each Saturday 9am-1pm!

Here is some more information on Craft Cakes, because Brigitte & her team are amazing. In fact, we get Craft Cakes for all of our special occasions; Gluten-free, vegan Carmel Cake for Torrie’s birthday, Vegan Carrot Cake for my (Paula’s) birthday. Brigitte also did my wedding cake (gluten-free, vegan, Peanut Butter), and wow was it delicious!
Craft Cakes CLT is located in Charlotte, NC and her Instagram is beautiful. @craftcakesclt

Custom Moss Art Charlotte Crown by #thesavageway.
The Charlotte Crown has never looked so good! We adore this Custom Moss Art piece that we created for a client in their 4th Ward home in Charlotte, NC. This piece is almost 3′ wide and fits perfectly in the foyer entrance of this neighborhood high rise.
The beauty of an original Moss Art piece by #thesavageway is that you get all of the beauty and greenery of a living wall / plant, but without any of the maintenance. That’s right. We use preserved moss so there is no need to water or leave the art near sunlight. We have perfectly crafted the artwork to maintain its color and texture for years to come.
If you are interested in learning more about this Crown Moss Art or something that you are dreaming up in your head, please shoot us an email ([email protected])! We love to be creative with clients and find a way to make your office lobby, conference room, or home foyer look way cooler (and greener!).
Love the detail of this custom artwork for a client. #thesavageweay
It’s all in the details with Moss Art by #thesavageway.
Moss Art is better than a living wall because there is no maintenance or watering required. Just enjoy. #thesavageway

We love a good surprise! When Dave Rich contacted us to help him create a one-of-a-kind Moss Art piece for his wife, we were all in! A little background, Dave is married to Aubrey Rich, owner of Willow Floral Boutique. As a five year wedding gift, Dave wanted to gift his wife something truly special.
These are the words of Aubrey from her Instagram post about the present:
Amazing words from Moss Art recipient @willowfloralboutique on Instagram. @thesavageway
As Aubrey noted, this was a collaboration piece. We love seeing multiple elements in a final art piece. The dark green moss was an on-brand, and a beautiful choice for this custom sign.
Moss Art for Willow Floral Boutique turned out gorgeous in the dark green moss. #thesavageway
We were absolutely honored to be a part of this special surprise. And little did we know, we posted a photo on our instagram on the five year anniversary of Willow Floral Boutique! How serendipitous. Moss Art is so great because we can truly customize anything that you’re seeking. Whether you’re a large corporation who needs an interior design element for your lobby or a husband looking for a special anniversary present – with Moss Art, we’ve got you covered.

When a client approaches you with enthusiasm and genuine appreciation for your art, it is truly a special experience. We had the best time working with Leigh Brown of RE/MAX Executive Realty on a custom RE/MAX Moss Art sign for her corporate office. She contacted because she was looking to revamp her office décor and bring some new life to her workspace.
This logo turned out so crisp and clean. We love how our preserved moss brings all of the benefits of a traditional living wall without all of the maintenance. There is no need to water the art or keep the piece near a sunny window. #thesavageway Moss Art will maintain its appearance indefinitely – just hang it and enjoy it!

Hygge Owner, Garrett Tichy (lt) and new Chief Strategy Officer, Brittany Yoho (rt) in front of the custom Moss Art by #thesavageway.
Hygge (pronounced hoo-ga) is a coworking community in Charlotte, NC. They have been crushing the game, opening their third location in just a few years. When owner, Garrett Tichy, approached us about creating a custom Moss Art piece for their original location on 809 W. Hill Street, the decision was well, easy.
This piece was a large install. It was a total of 16 circles in a variety of sizes, along with a 36″ moss rendition of Hygge’s signature tagline, “easy.” on a brand specific yellow painted wall that measured 63″ x 74″.
We loved how it turned out. When you head to Hygge for one of their many awesome community events, make sure to snap a picture and let us know!

Custom Moss Art for Your Pie, the newest build-your-own-pizza shop in Charlotte, NC
It’s tough to get better than pizza, love and hoppiness (beer). These three things bring so much joy to the world. So when we had the chance to partner with Your Pie Charlotte on some Moss Art, we knew we had to make it fun.
Corri Smith, Owner of Black Wednesday Social Co., handled the marketing and public relations for Your Pie and she brought us in to help with the creation of this custom art. This piece of Moss Art is part of a larger installation on the back wall of the new make-your-own-pizza shop in Historic South End (2400 South Blvd.). Our preserved moss pops off the reclaimed wood wall and pairs nicely with the painted and neon sign.
It’s refreshing to see brands be creative and use our medium as an element in a larger design. We had fun with some local Charlotte friends at the grand opening a few weeks ago.
Our friends L: Corri Smith, C: Aaron Dodge, R: Charlotte Martin (daughter of Kseniya Martin) at Your Pie Charlotte
More friends at the Your Pie Grand Opening: L: Asheton Brown, R: Your Pie Owner, Ankoor Patel. #thesavageway
Go check out Your Pie on South Blvd! They’re open 11AM daily. And while you’re there, send us a picture of you in front of the sign!

#thesavageway Moss Art for AAA Carolinas. 100% real plants, naturally preserved.
We were recently contracted by AAA Carolinas to create a custom Moss Art sign for their main conference room at 6600 AAA Dr. Charlotte, NC (AAA Headquarters).
This intricate logo design is the perfect green addition to an otherwise traditional meeting space. The piece measured 4’ in width and looks great centered on the wall. We partnered with our local woodworker, Wooden Fox, to get the logo cut.
Our moss is made from 100% real plants that have been naturally preserved so there is no maintenance required. Imagine that – no watering, no fertilizer, no sunlight required. Simply hang your Moss Art on the wall and enjoy nature’s beauty (without the green thumb required)
Love the detail on this Moss Art piece. #thesavageway
