Regent Street Management – Venture House

Regent Street Management Direct required artwork for the reception area at Venture House that would make a strong impression to clients and staff alike. These large bold abstract paintings are visually striking without being intrusive on the space which echoes the company’s approach to their operations.

Framed in stained-black ash, this project is a prime example of how keeping framing simple creates no distractions from the artworks themselves.

This combined with the curvature of the wall and the locations of the artworks in relation to the lighting created an enticing outcome.

As we have our own in-house framing team, we are able to find tailored solutions to our clients’ framing requirements. Subsequently, we oversee projects through from conceptualisations to installation without the need to out-source meaning that we are in control of delivering outcomes that will meet, if not surpass, our clients’ expectations.

Association of British Insurers

Following on from our previous work on their stained glass panels, when the Association of British Insurers relocated to their new offices Art Contact was again asked to assist and to find a solution for the display of their collection of stained glass panels.

The solution that was decided upon was to lightly frame the panels and hang them together in front of a light box. The resulting display is very effective and has been extremely well received.

As well as working with the stained glass panels we were also asked to conserve and re-frame some of their extremely old documents including one of the oldest insurance policies in existence. This framing was carried out to full conservation standards and should protect these items from the London atmosphere for years to come.

Private Apparment Building on Hanover Street.

Regent Street Management Direct assigned Art Contact to brighten up the lobby area of their private apartment building on Hanover Street, London with chic artwork.

Due to their proximity to Vogue House, we sourced and framed a collection of classic black and white fashion photographs. To accompany this we commissioned an abstract canvas triptych that complimented the space’s elegant interiors and colour palette.

Portland Hospital – Shard Clinic

At the beginning of 2016 we completed another project with the HCA Group, this time at The Shard. The brief was to commission colourful artwork for their children’s clinic that incorporated iconic London architecture and scenes. Our digital artist created artwork full of vitality that were printed onto both acrylic and forex panels and were attached using brushed steel stand-off bolts.

We continue to work in locations within the HCA group with the artist who creates these unique artworks as they can be adjusted to incorporate buildings and places of relevance to each hospital whilst maintaining a continuous and aesthetically engaging narrative throughout the group which can be translated to any workplace environment.

Portland Hospital

As part of the on-going refurbishment of the Hospital, Art Contact was asked to commission some strongly themed printed panels for the Audiology Department at the Portland Hospital. Due to the nature of the department a musical theme was selected.

The pictures were printed onto acrylic panels and installed using panel fixings, insuring the continuation of the theme developed through-out the rest of the hospital.

Open University

The Open University campus has a large collection of artworks from around the world. Art Contact has been assisting the team at the Open University to maintain, conserve and restore their collection for many years. Most recently Art Contact was appointed to conserve and re-frame where appropriate their large collection of limited edition prints and paintings.

The pictures were largely re-framed in similar moulding so that any combination of artworks could be hung together as required. When required artworks were enclosed behind acrylic covers to add additional protection to vulnerable artworks.
