Design for the National Galleries

National Pride

We’ve worked with the team at the National Galleries of Scotland since late 2008, helping them highlight some of their most high-profile exhibitions in Edinburgh.

Queen and Blackadder Exhibitions

One is very happy to announce that one’s been beavering away on the latest must-see shows for the National Galleries.

The Queen Art & Image highlights the changing face of royal portraiture from the 1950’s to the present day. It’s also the very first time one can see Thomas Struth’s new portrait of the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh commissioned to mark the forthcoming Diamond Jubilee and the Duke’s 90th birthday.

Meanwhile, the Dame Elizabeth Blackadder retrospective is a rare chance to catch sight of the varied and influential work of one of Scotland’s most revered artists.

Mount Stuart Exhibition

We are delighted to unveil our latest project for the National Galleries: the branding and advertising for the Mount Stuart exhibition. It is the first time in 60 years that this fine selection of Old Masters from the Bute Collection at Mount Stuart has been on public display. If you get a chance it’s well worth a visit.

French Drawings

Tasked to design everything from posters to private view invites, the exhibition in early 2011 promoted the virtues of the French Masters, from Poussin to Seurat (and quite a few in between).

The Young Vermeer

We were asked to help promote the Christmas 2010/11 exhibition – The Young Vermeer, featuring early works by the revered Dutch master. Overseeing all promotional material, we created posters, invitations as well as gallery signage.

Christen Købke

Known as the Danish master of light, the Christen Købke exhibition brought together the most exhaustive selection of paintings ever to be shown outside Denmark. Working with the team at the National Galleries, we masterminded the look and feel for all their promotional material.

The Discovery of Spain

The primary exhibition during the summer of 2009, we originated the design of the poster and all related promotional material from private invitations to advertising and onsite signage.

Gerhard Richter

Using pre-selected imagery from the artist, we produced a wide range of material to publicise ‘one of the most important artists of our time’.
