United Utilities transformed office space

Working closely with the client, the brief was to convert a stark white blank canvas to build a brand upon.

The office is home to the engineering teams and it was important to reflect the valuable expertise and innovation that the department provides to the company and its legacy; through their pioneering engineering achievements.

The graphics were a mixture of high level, large format wall graphics and directly printed foamex panels set into bespoke acrylic cylinders to simulate pipes, the artwork was fascinating, taking advantage of the clients fantastic archive of photography, including imagery of sites dating back to the early 20th century that are still in operation today.

The result has helped to give the team working in the building a sense of pride and also give a vast and understated building some real character.


It’s Summer!

Just in case you were looking out of the window watching rain drops and needed some reassurance, it’s Summer!!

To create these huge letters, towering to almost 2.5mtrs high, we firstly had to CNC cut multiple sheets of 75mm fire retardant polystyrene and bond them all together with a plywood internal structure, taking them up to a thickness of over 300mm deep. After applying a smooth Foamex face, we spray painted each letter to a cheery bright canary yellow.

Using all of these process’ contributed to creating the “biggest summer” ever!!
