I am looking for a talented person to create or generate the idea for a unique and visually appealing display for 15 patents. Instead of the traditional wood plaque with metal inserts, I want an innovative approach. My budget is modest to create it, whether by you or if a different skilled person is needed to create so keep that in mind. I want to have something in my house but I don't want the boring plaque. I'm really proud of these patents as I never in my life thought I would have a patent issued so I want the display to somehow reflect the joy or surprise or colorful unexpectedness that I feel. Any ideas on how I might display something like this that's more fun? maybe something more artsy or craftmanship focused instead of plaque? art? Quilt/sewing/fabric? painting/something painted? some kind of unexpected material? It doesn't have to be the patent title for each one - some could be an icon or rendering that represents something about the patent. 5 of these patents were inspired by the difficulty my vision impaired people have using their phone and how terrible phone accessibility is. example titles below for 5 of the patents - we can change wording as we desire to fit the idea:
device Application-specific security
Device deactivation based on behavior patterns
MANAGING ACCESSIBILITY FEATURES FOR MOBILE DEVICE
MANAGING USER-INTERFACE PARAMETER FOR MOBILE DEVICE
Organizing applications for mobile devices
