Design
Behind every sign we make is a design that’s been carefully considered, refined, and perfected.
Our design team brings decades of combined experience, genuine creativity, and an unwavering passion to every project we take on. But they don’t work in isolation, they’re part of a deeply collaborative process that draws on the expertise, creativity and craft knowledge of everyone here at Parc.
From initial concept through to final installation, design thinking runs through everything we do. It’s this collective approach that allows us to take on projects of real ambition and complexity, knowing we have the skills and experience across the whole team to deliver them brilliantly.
Whether you’re commissioning a single directional sign or conceptualising an entire exhibition, we approach each brief with the same commitment to creating something exceptional.
What good design means
Good design isn’t just about how something looks, it’s about how it works, how it feels, and how it communicates.
Our designers understand this instinctively. They listen carefully to what you need, explore what’s possible, and then craft solutions that are as functional as they are visually striking. It’s fair to say, we work across an impressive range of projects.
In recent years, our team has designed:
- Deeply creative interpretive displays for heritage and outdoor sites, parks and gardens
- Wayfinding systems for contemporary developments
- Bespoke signage for independent businesses of all sizes
- Large-scale exhibition installations for national museums
- Specialist signage for education and healthcare settings with specific accessibility needs and clear regulatory guidelines
- Vehicle livery ranging from full and partial wraps to cut vinyl text
That breadth of experience means we can bring fresh perspectives to your project, whatever its scale or sector.
Design that works in the real world
When we design for you, we’re thinking beyond the immediate brief.
01
We consider how your signage will weather over time, choosing materials and finishes that are built to last.
02
How it will be manufactured in our workshop, ensuring every detail can be faithfully reproduced by our skilled makers.
03
How it will be installed in your space, planning for practical access, fixing methods, and a seamless finish.
04
And how visitors will experience and interact with it, from sightlines and readability to intuitive wayfinding.
This joined-up thinking, from concept through to completion, is what sets our design process apart. Our designers work hand-in-hand with our fabricators and installers, meaning what we design can actually be built, beautifully.
What you’ll receive
We’ll create detailed visual proofs so you can see exactly what your project will look like before we begin manufacture. We’ll also produce comprehensive technical drawings that guide our workshop team with absolute clarity. This dual approach gives you confidence and gives our makers the information they need to build to the highest standards. Whatever you’re envisioning, however ambitious or intricate, our design team has the skill and determination to bring it to life.
