Mapping

Expert map design: tailored solutions for every need

Skilled illustrators painstakingly produce stunning maps in a bewildering selection of styles to match the viewers’ needs. 2D or 3D, heads-up or north-up, illustrative or functional, heritage or future-focused. Each map is as individual as your site. Our mapping services ensure accuracy, clarity, and visual appeal, making navigation seamless for users. Whether for wayfinding, branding, or storytelling, we craft bespoke maps that enhance any environment.

Versatile map designs bringing spaces to life

Once drawn, the original files are stored securely for updating and modifying as the location develops. The maps can be used online, on printed material and on graphics panels. A really well-designed map actually becomes iconic and recognisable in its own right, consider the London Underground as an example.

Enhancing Wayfinding in Windsor, Berkshire

Windsor, Berkshire

Windsor attracts millions of visitors each year, making clear wayfinding essential. Our map design services helped streamline navigation with the installation of the Barcelona Monolith. Designed for flexibility, the monoliths can be removed for special events, leaving a flush surface for pedestrian and vehicle access. The toughened glass panels feature easily updatable graphics, ensuring information remains current.

Improving Navigation in Sleaford, Lincolnshire

Sleaford, Lincolnshire

Sleaford needed a comprehensive wayfinding solution to enhance visitor experience. We developed a wayfinding strategy, designed maps, and installed Barcelona Monoliths with heads-up mapping and directional signage. Our team ensured a seamless installation by creating concrete footings and reinstating paving. The signage blends into the town’s aesthetic while providing clear, accessible guidance.
