SoundCloud Neon Sign Backdrop at Los Angeles HQ

A custom neon logo sign built for SoundCloud's Los Angeles headquarters, now the brand's signature photo backdrop, where visiting artists pose before Grammy nights and other major industry moments. Neon Flamingo designed and fabricated a custom neon logo sign for SoundCloud's Los Angeles headquarters, built as a backdrop piece in collaboration with designer Jhana Partis, who created the floral wall installation surrounding it. What began as office signage has become something more: SoundCloud's signature branding moment at their LA location, and a piece the team has grown to treasure.

A Backdrop Worth Building a Ritual Around

Every visiting artist who comes through the LA headquarters takes a photo in front of it. The sign stopped being office decor a long time ago. It is how SoundCloud presents itself to the artists it works with, across studio visits and industry meetings.

That significance extends well beyond the office walls. SoundCloud has taken the sign's presence to the Grammys and other major industry events, using it as a recognizable piece of brand identity at some of the music industry's biggest moments. For a platform built on connecting with artists, a neon sign has become genuine shorthand for the brand itself.

Built to Perform Under Real Use

A working backdrop takes wear a decorative piece never would, since artists lean right into it for photos. When contact has cracked the glass, we have turned repairs around in one to two weeks. Fast fixes are part of the relationship, so the backdrop is ready when the next artist walks in.

Why This Project Matters

A well-designed neon logo can turn into an asset a company builds moments around. This one shows what the studio does with commercial logo work: exact brand color matching, fabrication that survives daily use, and a long-term relationship that keeps a high-visibility piece running for years.

Neon Sign Paradise for Playboy Store at Westfield Century City Mall

Six custom neon moments built for Playboy's pop-up store at Westfield Century City Mall, a fast-turnaround retail install with longtime collaborator Pop Up Mob, blending nostalgic branding with bold interior lighting. Neon Flamingo was commissioned by Playboy to design and fabricate six custom neon sign moments for their retail pop-up store at Westfield Century City Mall, a 2,300-square-foot space that brought the brand's first company-owned storefront to Los Angeles. The project was executed in collaboration with Pop Up Mob, a production team Neon Flamingo works with regularly on fast-moving retail installations.

Neon Museum Exhibition at Muzeo in Anaheim

A solo neon installation at Muzeo Museum & Cultural Center, where commercial-grade sign fabrication became fine art, reworking the visual language of signage into an original gallery narrative. Neon Flamingo's founder, Dani Bonnet, was commissioned for a solo neon installation at Muzeo Museum & Cultural Center in Anaheim, a 25,000-square-foot institution housed in the city's original Carnegie Library. The exhibition placed hand-fabricated glass neon inside a museum context, reframing a medium built for storefronts and marquees as a vehicle for original visual storytelling.

hello82 LA Neon Logo

A large-scale neon logo built into a base of vintage vinyl records for hello82's Los Angeles headquarters, now the office centerpiece where visiting K-pop artists perform and take photos, running for years with almost no issues. Neon Flamingo designed and fabricated a large-scale custom neon logo for hello82, a K-pop entertainment company, at their Los Angeles headquarters. The brief came with a specific creative vision: incorporate real vinyl records into the sign itself, grounding a modern neon logo in the physical history of recorded music.

OFF // On Exhibit

OFF//ON: a large-scale outdoor neon and mixed-media exhibition at the Hollywood Palladium, curated by Dani Bonnet in partnership with Pabst Blue Ribbon and the Museum of Neon Art, 15 Los Angeles artists, safely staged outdoors during COVID. In May 2021, Dani Bonnet curated OFF//ON, a large-scale neon and mixed-media exhibition staged on the window front of the historic Hollywood Palladium on Sunset Blvd., presented in partnership with Pabst Blue Ribbon, with support from the Museum of Neon Art. Free and open to the public, the show ran outdoors for a full week, letting visitors experience original neon and interactive art at a safe distance, in open air, during a period when indoor gatherings still weren't possible.

Vans x Dani Bonnet

A fully creative commission for Vans' "Off the Wall" campaign, Neon Flamingo's Dani Bonnet was given complete artistic freedom and a real production budget the moment COVID hit, resulting in "Electric American Eagle," a piece featured across national press and Vans' own campaign materials. Neon Flamingo's Dani Bonnet was commissioned by Vans for their "Off the Wall" creator campaign, a program built to fund artists working across a range of creative disciplines. The result was Electric American Eagle, an original neon sculpture combining the American bald eagle with wads of cash, built as commentary on money, power, and freedom in America.

Electric Winter

Electric Winter: Dani Bonnet's first curated art show, presented with Pabst Blue Ribbon at Innerspace Gallery in winter 2019, a sold-out night with a line around the block, a DJ set from Jerry Paper, and a full lineup of LA neon and mixed-media artists. In winter 2019, Dani Bonnet curated Electric Winter, a neon and mixed-media art exhibition presented in partnership with Pabst Blue Ribbon at Innerspace Gallery in Los Angeles. It was Dani's first time curating a show from the ground up, and the response exceeded anything anyone expected: a line stretched around the block to get in.
