Client: Oaklands College Project: Maths & English Centre and Identity
Oaklands College needed to turn a tired block of old classrooms into a vibrant new centre for teaching Maths and English at their St Albans Campus.
A 'brand' for the department was developed and applied to the outside of the building together with specifications for the entire refurbishment, resulting in a bright, fun 'go-to' destination for the students.
Client: Oaklands College Project: Apprenticeships Week Bus Graphics
Brief: Brand the Oaklands College 'Battle Bus' for the National Apprenticeships Week tour of local schools and colleges, spreading the word about the apprenticeship course opportunities at the college.

Client: Oaklands College
Project: Campus Waymarking Banners
New buildings and a revised campus layout at Oaklands College called for an easily update-able waymarking system to be designed and installed. Lamppost banners were the most cost-effective solution as they could make use of the many posts on campus and can be readily changed as the college refurbishment continues at a pace.
