2021 Sign Contest: Best Outside Design/Shop Fabrication, Non-Illuminated

FIRST

Archetype was hired to fabricate and install phase two of the Ballpark Village entertainment complex adjacent to the St. Louis Cardinals’ Busch Stadium. The centerpiece of the project was the 35-ft. replica of the Commissioner’s Trophy, given each year to the winner of Major League Baseball’s World Series. Archetype used the 2011 trophy, won by the Cardinals, as a model.
