Enhancing Educational Environments through Bespoke Wall Graphics at Maltings Academy

Project Brief:

Design and install bespoke wall graphics for multiple subject zones to enhance the educational experience and environment. Areas of focus included values, art, design technology, mindset, sports, among others.


Objectives

The primary objective was to transform the school’s learning spaces into vibrant, engaging areas stimulating students' interest and reinforcing the academy's educational values. The graphics were designed not just to beautify the space but to serve as functional educational tools that complement the learning objectives of each subject.

Design Process

  1. Research and Engagement: The project began with a meeting with school officials to understand Maltings Academy's specific needs and values. This phase helped tailor the design brief to align with the school's ethos and educational goals.
  2. Concept Development: Unique themes were conceptualised for each subject zone based on the curriculum and the age group of the students using the space. For example, the sports zone featured dynamic and motivational themes to energise students, while the art zone used creative and abstract designs to inspire creativity.
  3. Feedback and Iteration: Preliminary designs were reviewed with the school staff to ensure they met educational and aesthetic requirements. Feedback was incorporated iteratively, demonstrating a flexible approach to fully meeting client satisfaction.

Implementation

  • Materials Selection: Materials were chosen to align with our environmental initiatives, ensuring durability and safety without compromising environmental values.
  • Installation Process: The installation was carried out over half term to minimise disruption to the school’s daily activities.


Impact

  • Educational Enhancement: Post-installation feedback indicated a significant positive impact on student engagement and interest. Educators reported increased enthusiasm and participation in zones where the graphics were installed, with students expressing a greater connection with the subject matter.
  • Visual and Aesthetic Improvement: The transformation of educational spaces into more appealing and stimulating environments was evident. The visual appeal of the graphics contributed to a more vibrant school atmosphere.
  • Environmental Contribution: In line with our commitment to environmental stewardship, one tree was planted for each graphic installed, contributing to local reforestation efforts.


Challenges and Resolutions

The project encountered challenges such as aligning designs closely with educational goals and installing large graphics with minimal disturbance. These were overcome through adaptive project management and close communication with school officials, ensuring all installations were executed smoothly without impacting the school schedule.


Future Directions

Building on the success at Maltings Academy, plans are underway to expand our offerings to other educational institutions looking to enhance their learning environments similarly. This project's positive outcomes serve as a robust model for future collaborations.



Conclusion

The project at Maltings Academy stands as a testament to the power of tailored educational enhancements through art. It showcases our ability to merge artistic creativity with functional educational needs, all while supporting environmental sustainability and fostering engaging learning environments.


This case study format provides a comprehensive view of the project from inception to completion and impact, designed to showcase your business's capabilities and successes to potential clients in the educational sector.

REVIEW "Thank you to Gary and the team at Cubed Creative for our wonderful History timeline vinyl and our entrance hall display. Not only were this company great value, would match other's deals they had great communication and kept us informed at all stages. A great eye for detail in the design phase. Even after part of the picture was not aligned correctly and coming away from the wall, Gary made sure he made a completely new wall vinyl and re-did the whole wall, not just a patch job- thank you, we are very grateful! We would definitely use them again and recommend them to others. Thank you so much for your time and prompt response to rectifying the error- thank you!" Kellie Kirby.
