Sunningdale Golf Club is one of the world’s most famous golf courses, occupying a stretch of stunning landscape near Ascot. Like many golf courses it has multiple public rights of way which cross the golf fairways. In October Hotrod delivered a new suite of high-end signage and digital Platform to promote safety and alert non-golfers about potential hazards at key locations.
Transport for London, which operates the Tube, Bus and Overland rail network in the capital, has a worldwide reputation for iconic graphic design encompassing the Beck map, Johnston typeface and countless posters.
In November Hotrod was delighted to win one of the three places on their 2D graphic design roster, with opportunities to work over the next three years communicating to millions of passengers and station users. Winning this position is a huge milestone for Hotrod, and will allow us to increase our corporate communications work in 2016.
In the 13th of July 2015 the doors opened on Rochester’s Huguenot Museum, located on the 1st floor of a large building on the High Street.
Hotrod has been engaged by the French Hospital, a venerable Huguenot charity, to create a new museum dedicated to telling the story of the Huguenots’ religious persecution, flight to Britain, and successful assimilation as the first ‘refugees’.
The dramatic Aqueduct carrying the Llangollen canal over the river Dee is a major visitor attraction, and features in a variety of tourist literature across the area. But there was no co-ordination or consistency on the use of brands, images or words.
Hotrod was engaged by a consortium of local stakeholders to devise a branding strategy and Design Toolkit that could be deployed across all sites and publications to create a coherent visual identity.
In June, Hotrod will complete the preparation of an HLF bid to re-engage the local community with this Park and Clock Tower in north London.
The aim of the project is to encourage more locals to visit the Park and enjoy its history. The Park has seen many uses over the centuries, ranging from 18th century sports ground to cattle market to wartime depot, and is fondly remembered by its long-term residents. However, many of Islington’s non-native born residents know nothing of this background.
