ARB Approves Multiple Storefront Signs and Temporary Clings in Darien
Summary
The Darien ARB issued favorable reports for several storefront sign proposals on June 16: ASHA (awnings and a 22x22 blade sign), Supr Food (seven temporary window clings allowed through July 31, 2026), and Bentley Jane (wall sign, awning and blade sign with heart logo).
At its June 16 meeting the Darien Architectural Review Board issued a set of favorable reports for multiple storefront signage proposals.
Kevin Kane of Hung Well Signs and Ashley McCormick presented signage for ASHA at 1 Market Street, including 18‑inch projecting awnings and a carved mahogany 22x22 blade sign painted light blue; the board issued a favorable report. For Supr Food Drive Thru at 205 Boston Post Road, Kate Beckin (Green & Tonic) and Steve Hinkus (Supr Food) proposed seven temporary window clings (four facing Boston Post Road and three facing Richmond Road) and one wall sign; the ARB allowed the clings through July 31, 2026. Kevin Kane also presented Bentley Jane signage (0 Market Street) — a white 21x84 aluminum light box wall sign with 3000K halo‑lit letters and a red heart, a striped awning projecting 24 inches, and a 24x36 heart blade sign — and the board issued a favorable report.
Why it matters: these approvals shape storefront appearances on Market Street and Boston Post Road and set temporary display limits during construction.
Next steps: applicants who received favorable reports will proceed with permitted sign fabrication and installation per town regulations; the minutes do not include vote tallies or construction schedules.
