IDM Signs & Graphics

Baton Rouge has always been a city with a rich food culture, but now it has a brand-new gem that’s sure to become a local favorite: The House of Dough. Recently opened, this trendy bakery brings a fresh twist to the city’s dessert scene, serving up deliciously inventive doughnuts that are as visually stunning as they are mouthwateringly good.

We were fortunate enough to be part of this exciting new venture, working closely with owner Mohammed Shehadeh to bring his vision to life with custom signage that perfectly complements the space’s modern yet welcoming atmosphere.
Crafting a Beautiful Exterior Sign
When it comes to setting the tone for a new business, few things are more important than the first impression—a job that often falls to the exterior signage. For The House of Dough, we had the privilege of creating a sign that would serve as both a beacon for doughnut lovers and an artistic statement for the business.
Working with Mohammed Shehadeh, we designed a sign that reflects both the playfulness and high-quality nature of the bakery. The bold, yet refined design features clean lines and vibrant colors, allowing the House of Dough brand to stand out while fitting perfectly into the aesthetic of Baton Rouge’s thriving culinary scene. The exterior sign is designed not just to be seen, but to be remembered—an iconic visual that draws people in while giving them a taste of what’s inside: a warm, inviting space filled with delicious, gourmet doughnuts.
Bringing the Interior to Life
The exterior sign was only the beginning. Mohammed’s vision for The House of Dough extended inside as well, where we worked on a series of custom vinyl applications and signage to enhance the space and provide a cohesive branding experience from the moment you walk in.
We crafted interior signage that guides customers through the space while reinforcing the playful, fun vibe of the bakery. With vibrant colors and modern fonts, the vinyl elements are seamlessly integrated into the space, adding personality and clarity to the layout. Whether it’s the branding on the walls, directional signs, or key informational graphics, each piece was thoughtfully designed to make the customer experience as enjoyable and easy as possible. The use of high-quality materials ensures that these elements are both durable and visually impactful, making them an essential part of the overall customer journey at The House of Dough.
A Sweet Collaboration
Working with Mohammed Shehadeh on this project was an absolute pleasure. His passion for his craft is evident in every detail of The House of Dough, and we were excited to help bring that passion to life through design. From the exterior sign that makes a bold statement to the smaller interior vinyl touches that tie the whole space together, this project allowed us to flex our creative muscles while supporting an amazing local business.
The end result is a space that feels both contemporary and welcoming, a perfect reflection of Mohammed’s vision for his bakery. Whether you’re a long-time Baton Rouge resident or visiting for the first time, The House of Dough is a must-visit destination—and we’re proud to have been a part of making it shine.
