AS THE END OF 2025 NEARS, WE THOUGHT THE TIME WOULD BE APT TO TAKE A LOOK BACK AT SOME OF THE WIDE-FORMAT PRINT PROJECTS THAT CAUGHT OUR EYE THIS YEAR. HOPEFULLY YOU MIGHT RECEIVE SOME INSPIRATION TO THINK BIGGER AS WE HEAD IN 2026.
a. All wrapped up Earlier in the year, Embrace Building Wraps rather beautifully disguised ongoing construction work taking place in Sloane Street, London with a giant trompe l’oeil (a 3D visual illusion). The wrap covered a whopping 886sq m area. Other projects completed by the building wrap specialist this year included a Vitruvian Man wrap for RH in Burlington Gardens to hide extensive building work and a 750sq m IKEA bag in Oxford Circus when the retailer moved into the former Top Shop store.
b. Back in April at the Vertu Trophy Final at Wembley Stadium, Peterborough fans were faced with an onslaught of blue as Birmingham City FC supporters rolled out a huge UFABRIK textile flag. Longtime signage and branding supplier to the club, Hollywood Monster printed the 35x37m flag on an EFI VUTEk Q5r UV LED 5m printer.
c. Setting sail Using an HP Latex 800W printer, Nettl Signs created an impressive wrap for a rowing boat in preparation for a six-week trip across the Atlantic Ocean. The wrap consisted of two 9m-long strips, front and back panels, and cabin graphics. The World’s Toughest Row started on December 12.
d. An ambitious project Moss completed what it described as its ‘most ambitious and technically demanding’ project to date when it printed a replica of the iconic ceiling fresco in the Great Hall at Blenheim Palace. The replica was in situ while work was being done to restore the original painting. The artwork was printed with flame-retardant PVC mesh using Moss’ Durst 512R before being stitched together.
e. Ties and tensions In the spring, Digital Plus took a step forward in its sustainability journey when it worked with PVC-free Kavalan Gecko for the first time. The printer was tasked with producing and installing large-scale wall graphics for a thematic blood exhibition taking place at Thackery Medical Museum in Leeds called Blood: Ties and Tensions.
