ABOUT ARTFX
Some of the world’s most sensational signage, architectural fabrication and corporate art originates at ARTfx. Our Bloomfield, Connecticut, staff includes designers from the nation’s leading art schools, craftsmen with decades of industry experience, and project managers with a diversity of backgrounds – all committed to the model set forth 40 years ago. Though our work has increased in scale and scope, the focus on artistry and attention to detail remains as it was the day the doors opened in 1983.
RECENT PROJECTS
Town of West Hartford
Many municipalities hire ARTfx for sign design and/or fabrication. These one-of-a-kind signs uniquely identify towns, villages, cities or significant landmarks located within the communities.
First Presbyterian Church of Hartford
For this sign ensemble, the church’s new logo, and the building’s 1860’s architectural style served as ARTfx’ primary creative influence.
The Ethel Walker School
The woven pattern in this display expresses the interconnectedness of donors contributing to a common goal.
Windsor Federal
An innovative sign system design integrates a corporate logo with rectangular forms, structural texturing, and vibrant illumination.
OSF Flavors
An innovative sign system design integrates a corporate logo with rectangular forms, structural texturing, and vibrant illumination.
River Valley Cooperative
During weeks of pandemic Zoom meetings, ARTfx, in collaboration with Tom Douglas Architects and the RVC marketing team, designed a series of soffit displays for the Coop’s new Easthampton, Massachusetts, location. Lightweight composite panels formed and decorated at ARTfx’ facility saved countless hours of costly on-site framing and drywall work.
ELICIT BREWING COMPANY PATIO
ARTfx worked with Elicit management to develop dynamic designs for outdoor biergarten murals. With final selections, our artists projected, traced, and painted the full-sized subject matter.
Iron Horse Sports Pub
A one-time dreary carport is now a welcome addition for four season dining at a popular pub. ARTfx designed the enclosure with removable windows and attractive louvres to facilitate air flow.
lighthouse surgery center
Featuring an ARTfx logo, the Lighthouse monument sign showcases two of our hallmark faux-finishing techniques – variegated limestone and stained hardwood.
