PROJECT News British Council entrance gets makeover
W&Co was awarded the task to brighten up British Council's entrance way to their main offices in SW London, working in close co- ordination with Artillery Architects. The entrance to their building is located
on the back wall of a fairly deep and dark under croft, which results in visitors not being able to easily find the entrance. So to increase their visibility, W&Co
were asked to design, manufacture and in- stall some large built-up and flat cut stainless steel logos fixed at high level next to the en- trance doors. Accompanied by a series of bespoke external LED illuminated poster cases and fret cut illuminated signage wrap- ping around several of the under croft’s con- crete columns. The large bespoke poster display
cases were laid back to back complete with concealed LED accent lighting to the rear edges to give a floating effect. The poster cases have been built with longevity in mind, with toughened glass front panels and hinged doors and a hidden locking mechanism. The British Council have the flexibility
to change the posters themselves for up- coming events and marketing throughout the year and have been 'extremely pleased' with the final result. The British Council is an organisation
specialising in international educational and cultural opportunities. It is registered as a charity both in England and Wales and Scotland.
