Sightline Steel Doors is a full service steel and iron door manufacturer. Located right here in Charlotte, NC, Jimmy Benham & his team custom design and create these beautiful, functional pieces of art for your home or business. They are in high demand and their work is gorgeous. Learn more about the steel door process on their website and Instagram.
We created a custom sign for the Sightline showroom. The clean and sleek lines of our preserved Moss Art mimicked the modern and sleek aesthetic that you get from the steel doors. Check out our latest creation below.

One thing we really appreciate about the Sightline team is their attention to excellence. From their website, “We believe a project’s success is taking every detail into consideration before the product is approved for fabrication. Smooth installations and finishes are not a product of luck and should not be decided on site, a smooth install requires proper planning and coordination.” We can get behind that kind of commitment!
Our custom Moss Art signs are made with so much care and love and that allows us to stay motivated to keep creating. And when we see our clients happy it truly is one of the best feelings. We are excited to keep following the Sightline journey.

We had the joy of creating a really cool Moss Art wall for our client, Collective NoDa. This was the first (of many) huge art installations that we’ve done. Our friends at Southpark Interiors wanted us to create something epic for their common area. The best part about working with this interior design team is that they allow our creativity to flow. Our imagination can run wild because we do not have hard parameters set or a mold we have to fit into. They graciously gave us a 18′ wide x 13′ tall wall to play with and boy did we have fun!
Collective NoDa is an apartment complex that highlights so many amazing local artists and is one of the most vibrant places we’ve ever walked into. So of course, our brains wanted to incorporate as many colors as possible for this commissioned piece. We played off of some of the other geometric patterns found around The Collective, and created a one-of-a-kind pop-art Moss Wall.
Getting ready for install day! See you soon Collective NoDa.

This piece had 21 geometric shapes, some fitting together and some wild and free on the wall. We LOVE the end result and how Southpark Interiors has decorated the entire space. Want to stop by and see the work or learn more about Collective NoDa? Check out their website.

Our Moss Art offerings have grown and evolved over time. We started out making custom moss logos, and now we are working hand-in-hand with interior designers and architects to include Moss Art into the plans for new buildings. Recently, our friends over at Southpark Interiors hired us to create two gradient Moss Walls for a luxury apartment complex.
Three30Five is a newly remodeled apartment in South End and they have lot of great things to offer residents. Check out some of their amenities. We LOVED creating the Three30Five Moss Walls for their upstairs lounge area. Since our moss is preserved, there is no need for any ongoing maintenance; no watering, no sunlight, no drainage needed.
These Moss Art walls were a labor of love from our team. Measuring 3′ x 8′ and 5′ x 8′, our team was able to conquer the gradient pattern throughout the entire piece. Check it out.

As our moss offerings continue to expand, we look forward to all of the creativity that it will unleash in us. The possibilities truly are endless. Our approach to using preserved moss is to create pieces that are modern, pop art. Lot of fun colors and designs. Stay tuned for all of the fun upcoming projects we have in the works!

Preserved Moss Logo for Charlotte’s Local Media Source
Charlotte Agenda is a popular news source here in Charlotte, NC. It is the brainchild of Ted Williams and Katie Levans. According to their credo, “The Agenda exists to make Charlotte smarter and better connected,” and they do this with a daily newsletter, their website, Instagram & the annual City Guide. Watching their team grow and evolve into the pulse of the Queen City has been incredible.
We were honored when Cristina Wilson (President / Partner) and Abby Clark (Operations Manager) approached us to create the Charlotte Agenda logo in moss for their brand new office. And the best part was that it was a surprise for Ted, Katie and the rest of the staff. The talented Marissa Wilson of Artful Interiors was responsible for the interior design of their new space at Gather Wilmore (529 W. Summit Ave. Charlotte, NC). We quietly worked on this 4’ wide piece in our studio while the office was built out.
When the day finally came for installation, we gathered our team and headed to the new Agenda Headquarters. Getting to see the bare bones of this office was a treat. We know what it takes to get a business up and running and we could just feel the excitement in the air. Our Moss Art accompanied a gorgeous handmade table by Rosewood Co. Seriously, if you haven’t heard of Rosewood Co or Janine Bithell before, check out her Instagram.

Modern, Farmhouse Style Sign Made of Preserved Moss
We had the pleasure of creating a custom Moss Art sign for Adam Fiorenza and his team at byFiorenza Communities. This developer specializes in modern farmhouse Homes in the Charlotte area. They have properties coming soon to Steele Creek, Matthews, Mint Hill and Rock Hill neighborhoods.
Our friends at 8Lincoln30, local Charlotte woodworkers, helped us craft this beauty. This piece is 6.5’ wide with the logo sitting at 6’ in beautiful forest green moss. We love the finished product. Check out some of the photos below.

Proud owners of a new Moss Art sign!
All of our work is completely custom. That means that every time a client approaches us we are likely crafting a new way to display our Moss Art – and that is fun and challenging at the same time. This project was no different. Since “communities” was so small in relation to the logo, we had to get creative and use an epoxy fill to complete the sign. We think it turned out great! Sleek, sexy and the perfect addition to this modern, farmhouse style design.
If you are interested in having us create a unique piece of art or signage for your company, give us a shout. We would love to bring your vision to life through nature.
