Case Studies: British Empire and Commonwealth Museum

One of the banner sized signs on the back of the building. (more...)

In July 2002 the proposed British Empire and Commonwealth Museum approached Signs Now with regard to the planning and implementation of their exterior signs.

The museum was to be housed within Brunel's famous engine shed, a Grade 1 listed building at Temple Meads railway station in the centre of Bristol.

 

Signs Now undertook meetings with the museum where we listened to their ideas and requirements. These included the name of the museum being placed onto the front of the building in a sympathetic yet effective way, various branded and temporary exhibition banners, window graphics, forecourt information signs and directional signs.
The top quality stainless steel lettering along the top of the building. (more...)
One of the banners used at the front of the building. (more...)

We were then able to advise and suggest on the best way of achieving these aims. Given the sensitive nature of the project and the importance of the building, we worked with museum staff, local designers and architects and specialist advisors in order to archive the best way of undertaking the project.

The signs shown here include individual built-up stainless steel letters for the name, permanent and temporary banners on bespoke made cabling system, window graphics and "A" frame forecourt signs.

Mr Feisal Khalif, marketing manager for the British Empire and Commonwealth Museum said: "In July 2002 we commissioned Signs Now to become involved in the design, fabrication and installation of our museum's signs., Given the nature of our building and the issues involved with it, the provided much help and support and supplied signs of a high standard which both complement the building and look excellent.
