the challenge
Printworks Manchester needed new gateway entrances and public-realm upgrades as part of a major venue refurbishment, in a heritage-sensitive city-centre setting.
our solution
Lustalux supplied the newly designed gateway entrances and associated public-realm elements, adding to the sense of arrival on the period façade. The digital ceiling screen inside the venue is part of the wider refurbishment, not Lustalux's scope.
key outcomes
- New gateway entrances supplied as part of the venue refurbishment.
- Public-realm upgrades contributing to arrival and façade presentation.
- Signage delivered inside a construction and project-team programme.
project details
Printworks Manchester
Printworks Manchester underwent a major refurbishment programme. Lustalux supplied the newly designed gateway entrances and public-realm upgrades, adding to the sense of arrival and to the presentation of the period façade.
The venue also introduced a large internal digital ceiling screen as part of that wider refurbishment. That display is not Lustalux's recorded scope. Lustalux's contribution is the gateway and public-realm signage, delivered as specialist finishing inside a construction programme.
For other commercial window film, signage and architectural film across the city, see signage for a Manchester refurbishment. For contractor coordination, see construction and fit-out.
our approach
Work inside the refurbishment programme
Gateway and public-realm elements had to sit with the wider contractor and design package.
Respect the façade
The building is a non-designated heritage asset. Arrival signage needed to sit with the period façade.
Install the gateways
Lustalux supplied the newly designed gateway entrances and associated public-realm upgrades.
