Another appearance on Saturday Night Takeaway

https://hexio.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/game-of-phones-1.jpg
Some of our artworking skill and printing were shown off again this weekend on ITV"s Ant & Decs Saturday Night Takeaway .

We were asked to create convincing looking switchboard panels to dress a set that they were building for a feature called "Game of Phones".

Working from images found on the internet, we were able to create the artwork and print the panels in plenty of time for filming the show.

It"s just a pity that after spending so much time drawing hundreds of realistic looking screw heads for the control panels, they are not even visible when the camera pans past. Oh well.

ScaffoldSigns.com refresh

https://hexio.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/ScaffoldSigns-Screenshots-fanned-out.png
Finally, I"ve found a spare minute or two to give our ScaffoldSigns.com website a much needed refresh, after the previous site had served us well for more than a decade .

It was looking quite long in the tooth and some of the links on the shop section were not working any more. So I started fresh, creating new graphics and using a whole new shopping cart system, bringing it bang up-to-date.

It is now fully responsive, meaning it works as well on a phone or tablet as it does on a computer screen, which is clearly a huge plus when you consider that most of the time our target audience is going to be on a building site when using it.

Lets hope the orders start rolling in.

MDF Photo Prints

https://hexio.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/MDF_Photoprints_5.jpg
These impress us every time from Listen Studio. It always helps that we are supplied excellent photos to begin with, but the resolution of our printer and the high gloss laminate that we apply makes the colours really pop on these prints, that we mount to 15mm MDF boards with wrapped edges.

They mounted with wood battens to raise them off the wall, which gives the illusion of them floating.
