Business Graphics for Kier Living
THE CLIENT
Kier Living is a Bedfordshire-based construction company with over 70 years of experience in the sector. From the initial design stage to the completed property—and all the post-sale care in between— their primary objective is to combine high-quality materials and contemporary construction techniques to create award-winning new homes.
No project is too small or too big for Kier Living; from one-bedroom apartments to magnificent five-bedroom homes. Whatever the scope of the brief, every customer can be assured that each property will be built to the construction firm’s notorious high standards.
THE BRIEF
As a long-term client of Creative Solutions - having worked on numerous briefs from hoarding signage to large format banner printing - we were delighted to be asked to be involved in an extensive graphics project in their main Exeter office.
Creative Solutions are always happy to establish long-term relationships with large building contractors like Kier Living. As we can offer the complete package when it comes to business graphics - in this case, producing a varied and comprehensive range of design options for their office - it’s vital for us to maintain these types of working connections.
Full-colour prints on ACM boards, banner stands, meeting room plaques, and high-definition printed images; there were a large number of elements that Kier Living wanted us to produce for their office space - all of which would follow the client’s brand guidelines.
THE SOLUTION
For the client, we provided a large number of full-colour self-adhesive prints of various building projects and properties. These were applied to 3mm ACM 0.3mm skin board, coming in both 841 x 594mm and 1189 x 841mm sizes. The image quality of these prints is flawless; simply stunning high-definition graphics that really bring out the best in the properties on display.
For the wall near the office entrance, and for the back of the meeting room, we provided two MD5 Hi Tac blockout full colour prints of Kier developments, both finished in matt laminate for that extra dose of quality. Again, the image quality makes for an almost hyper-realistic depiction of the properties. The graphics seem to leap from the walls.
In addition, we also supplied a cricket banner stand, 850mm in width, for the office entrance. This was full-colour printed on anti-curl grey-backed roll-up film. Finally, Creative Solutions provided a range of full-colour direct printed acrylic sheet signs; three for meeting rooms, and one each for the boardroom and the regional director’s office.
Acrylic is a great choice for businesses looking for modern, elegant signage options. They are most commonly found in receptions, hotels, and, fittingly, offices; any location that requires a more contemporary aesthetic than a standard flat panel aluminium sign.
Kier Living were extremely happy with the work we carried out. Each element of the design brief was completed to the highest possible standard and we’re equally pleased to count them as a long-standing, satisfied customer.
