One of the things that The Savage Way is known for is our custom signage Moss Art. Our pieces are highly designed to the client’s desires, all while following brand standards. We pride ourselves on giving our clients a full circle experience, from the brainstorming & design phase to final execution. With our extensive marketing background, we understand those established brand standards and maintaining the brand aesthetic. We love when we get a chance to create signage out of our preserved plants.
There are a multitude of ways to display your branded signage in the office, but using Moss is such a unique experience. It adds greenery to your space in an unexpected and creative way. And the beauty of working with The Savage Way, is that we are able to customize the requested design to fit your interior design intent. Below are several ways that we have created signage out of moss for our clients.
From neon signage on a mixed moss backer to routed & filled letters that are stud mounted to the wall, Moss Art brings an elevated biophilic design element to any space. We are able to translate a traditional logo or even your company mission statement / core values into a stylized Moss Art piece.
Moss Art is definitely a trend we can get behind. There are so many benefits to bringing plants into workspaces. Nature is calming, reduces stress and leads to an overall better experience in an office setting. Our custom signage Moss Art creations are a great alternative to living plants (since Moss Art require zero maintenance!)
Our team is ready when you are to brainstorm all the creative solutions to bring your brand or logo “to life.” Since Moss Art does not require maintenance, it’s truly an ideal alternative in the signage and decorating space. Email us at [email protected] to start the conversation.

When we have the chance to create not one but three Moss Art pieces for a company like Lending Tree, you know we are doing a happy dance. Not just because of the work, but because this company sees the value in bringing plants/moss into a workspace. It truly transforms a space.
Moss Art is a perfect way for companies to bring a green, plant element inside without any of the maintenance. Don’t get us wrong, we LOVE plants and know that there is certainly a place for them in the workplace, but our Moss Art is such a great alternative because it requires zero maintenance. None! No water, sunlight or drainage required during buildout. No expensive ongoing maintenance packages. All of our moss is real, it is just preserved. It truly is a thing of wonder.
Now back to that company and this amazing job we’re talking about – Lending Tree! Lending Tree is “an online loan marketplace for various financial borrowing needs including auto loans, small business loans, personal loans, credit cards, and more….Together, these services serve as an ally for consumers who are looking to comparison shop among multiple businesses and professionals who will compete for their business.” (Lendingtree.com) They recently opened their new corporate headquarters in the Historic South End neighborhood of Charlotte, and this space is gorgeous! Their incredible team included Southwood Corporation who handled all of their signage and brought us into the equation.
We were hired to create three custom Moss Art pieces for the space, each unique in their concept and design. The first was the Lending Tree Logo made in preserved reindeer moss. We were able to use a variety of colors to complement the brand colors as well as the interior design.
The second piece was an homage to the Queen City. A 4’ tall CLT with the Lending Tree Leaf also made of preserved reindeer moss. This lichen is great because it offers beautiful coloring as well as sound absorption properties.
The third piece was a 10’ wide x 9’ tall “Breathe” wall made with preserved sheet/flat moss, Mood/pillow moss and reindeer moss. The moss was placed within a structure that Southwood Corporation built. The grandeur of the Moss Art is what stuck with us. It is simple yet so impactful.
Congrats to the Lending Tree team on the new office. And thank you for embracing our fun, custom art as a part of your interior design package. Learn more about our offerings and how we can bring some life into your work environment

Custom Signage for New Uptown Charlotte Restaurant
Graham St. Pub & Patio is new to Uptown Charlotte. This restaurant/bar has one of the best outdoor patios and is casual enough to hit up before a Charlotte Knights baseball game. That’s a win-win in our books. Check out this awesome view from the upstairs patio (photo via @GrahamStPub Instagram).
To make this new Charlotte restaurant even better, they wanted a custom Moss Art sign. We were honored to create a piece for the team at Graham St. Our Moss Art requires no maintenance, so that means you can hang it anywhere. No need for a water source, drainage or sunlight! It truly is perfect to bring a green interior design element into a space without any of the long-term maintenance.
Check out the finished product below. And better yet, go see it in person at Graham St. Pub & Patio (400 S. Graham St Charlotte, NC) and enjoy a cocktail on the patio.

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

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
