C Net: Case Study
Brief
Create Canvas were approached by CNet's
design team to produce the office branding
for the firm's central London head offices.
Solution
1. A bespoke lightbox was manufactured and
installed in the stair well/reception area creating
a dramatic and memorable effect.
To ensure the best possible finish, flex face
graphics were used in the lightbox defusing and
balancing the light and ensuring that individual
strip lights can not be seen. The lightbox graphics
were supplied by the interior design team and
artworked by Create Canvas making the process
as efficient and accurate as possible.
2. Branded wayfinding / signage was constructed
from 10mm perspex sheets with printed vinyl floor
plan applied to the back. 20mm brushed chrome
stand-offs were used to hang the floor plan giving
a minimalist, clean finish.
3. Plot cut vinyl lettering in matt grey attached to
pillars to label departments, the brand's signature
colours and font were used to maintain brand
consistency.
4. The CNet logo was cut from 3mm thick fret
cut brushed stainless steel with 20mm blind
locator fittings, and placed inside the entrance
giving visitors a smart first impresion.The logo
has also been enlarged and cut as a stencil,
our installers then painted through with a satin
varnish to subtly change the paint colour.
5. The main office signage on the front of the
offices was manufactured using10m laser cut
perspex with a polished edge.
6. Another bespoke, built in light box integral
to the wall show casing CNet's clients created
a stunning effect in the entrance.The lightbox
has front face access allowing easy maintenance.
Result
The work carried out in the CNet offices has
created a consistant standard of branding
throughout. By using the best materials Create
Canvas has ensured a long lasting and easily
maintained set of graphics for these offices.
CNet now stand out from their competition with
premises that are both impressive, in line with
brand and that help motivate staff.
