Urban Renewal Project in North London

There has been considerable news coverage centred around the new Tottenham Hotspur football stadium near White Hart Lane and the regeneration of Tottenham High Street but take the 259 bus a few stops and you will arrive in Edmonton, where one of the top regeneration companies in the UK has invested heavily in turning an inner city tired shopping area into a modern centre with great space and, more importantly, retaining the local vibe and market-based centre-piece.

Signcraft was briefed to dress the regenerated areas with smart functional signage, starting at mall level with directional way finding signs and also large format identity and branding signs to landmark the centre. If you visit Edmonton Green, you will see the array of signs but meanwhile, here is a small selection of photographs. Contact Signcraft.co.uk with your signage projects.

House & Property Signs, New Trends

Apparently, in parts of the USA, there is a growing trend for house signs to incorporate a photograph of the family who are living there. Interesting.

In business, we are often charged with incorporating company logos into signage, whatever the medium - cut vinyl, digital print, etched glass, metallic plaques, etc. The cost varies between techniques.

Property For Sale signs are mass-produced for each Estate Agent, designed to look distinctive with logo and using company colours and style. More often now, we are including QR code images so that passers-by can use their 'smart phones' to instantly connect to their website for details of the property they have seen.

Signcraft is a specialist in producing durable property boards: www.signcraft.co.uk

Edinburgh Festival & various print services

Edinburgh is full of interesting architecture. In the photograph on the left is a building wrap, printed to represent the building beneath the wrap (or how it will look when the renovation is complete) and on the fence in the foreground is a large printed hoarding that provides details of the whole building project.

On the right is one of the Edinburgh Fringe venues, draped with sturdy printed banners that can be seen at a distance, to help visitors find it. The large poster board at the bottom of the photograph details that day's entertainment.

Below is a very small sample of the number of smaller advertising posters that adorned the city. (Yes, that's 'Ted' from the American TV show Scrubs; actor-musician Sam Lloyd also plays in a music band The Blanks, who were appearing at the Gilded Balloon.)

Very Large Advertising Hoardings

From aerial platforms or by abseiling, Signcraft's experienced sign-fitters will wrap a building with a durable, weather resistant banner, printed to a client's exact specifications. Additionally, we can print and erect large site development signs.

Most impressive are the very large advertising hoardings we have supplied to clients.

Commercial Property Signage, Portsmouth & Southampton

Working in London presents logistical difficulties when delivering and erecting signage and certain destinations are virtually no go areas until the Olympic games are over.

In the meantime, business needs to continue and there are no sensible contingencies available to service providers trying to access London so we are thankful that we are extremely busy on the South Coast.

Commercial property investments in Portsmouth and the surrounding areas seem quite buoyant and Signcraft has been regularly visiting sites to add new business tenants to an ever expanding way finding system in one of the area's major projects, as well as identity and tenant directory signage in near-by Southampton.

Signcraft specialises in large signage. View our portfolios for:

• commercial property
• architectural signage
• site development signage
• shopping centre / retail signage
