Lost Letters

A Finnish company rescues letters from discarded neon business signs and re-purposes them:

When company signs and logos are taken down, they get demolished. We recycle the characters into individual design objects. We dismantle the letters, clean them up, add a new transformer, LED lights and the power cord, and put them back together.

Very hipster chic.
