Colour and clarity.

CWGC’s existing panels had relied too heavily on lengthy written history and black and white archive imagery. I developed a brand new interpretive system and layout using bright illustrations front and centre to draw the visitors eye, supported by a brief history, an orientation map and stories of note. Finally, a timeline highlighting key events before and after the construction of the memorial.

I worked closely with AJ Wells, experts in printed vitreous enamel to develop a robust design for the panels that would work in a huge variety of climates and terrains and allow for quick and easy installation by CWGC’s teams around the world. The panels were produced using a mix of screen print in CWGC green for all text and annotation and high quality image transfers for images and illustration.
