Concept definition & design
Before anything is designed, our experts first determine what works best for your project. Our own designers then visualise the proposal on your own façade, corridor or site, so you decide on the basis of an image rather than a description.
Concept first, design second
A design is the answer to a question that first has to be asked properly. That is why every project here starts with a concept definition. We have several experts, each with more than fifteen years of experience in one specific field: façades, lighting, signage, interiors, events. Together they look at your situation and determine what works best for this particular project: which technique, which material, which build-up, and what will remain maintainable and reusable over time. That choice is settled before a single line is drawn. So you do not end up with a handsome picture that turns out not to have been the right solution.
What we do
It starts with a briefing and usually with a site visit. We measure up, look at the substrate, the sightlines, what is already there. Then comes the proposal: choice of materials, dimensions, mounting method, and a 3D visualisation showing your own situation. For illuminated applications you get it both by day and by night, because those are two different images and the second one is what stands along the road in the evening.
What you need to supply
Not much. A few photos of the location and the overall dimensions are enough to start. If you have drawings, façade elevations, a brand guide or existing logo files, it goes faster and sharper. You can send them straight along with your request — the contact form accepts design files.
Permits and regulations
In Flanders, façade advertising, totems along the road and interventions in a protected view are subject to permits or to municipal regulations. We know the common rules, advise on what is feasible, and supply the drawings and visualisations the file requires. The application itself is submitted by you or by the building owner.
Brand consistency across the whole site
Whoever designs with us rarely designs just one thing. A company site has a façade, wayfinding, a bicycle shelter, a reception area and sometimes an exhibition stand — and ideally they tell the same story. Because we make all those families ourselves, one designer can align them instead of having five suppliers connect afterwards.
Frequently asked questions
Does a design cost money?
A consultation and a first 3D proposal can be requested without obligation. For extensive design work we make a clear arrangement in advance.
Can we still change the design?
Yes, that is exactly what it is for. We only lock things in once you agree.
Do you work with the house style of our own designer?
Gladly. Supply the brand guide and we work within it.
