Last week was busy at Minuteman Press. In Bath we have had the arrival of the Bath Christmas Market and it’s been quite something to see the wood through the sheds when it comes to the volume of work we have had to support this.
Taken from Bath Abbey, this image features the Bath Christmas Market and the Roman Baths late on a December afternoon.
We never grumble though. The Christmas Market here in Bath in in it’s 20th year and will see nearly half a million visitors to the city and will boost the local economy. The market adds circa £32.5 million turnover for the city.
Laser cut signage for Whole Lotta Knots
Local printers benefit too. It’s been busy with signage for traders, in some cases turning up to install them. We have also printed special Christmas menus for the local hospitality trade. We also donated signage for the Bath BID’s Elve’s Swap Shop. The swap shop invites children to visit. they collect old toys and give them a new, loving home. Children can bring a toy they no longer want and swap it for a new pre-loved toy.
We can help you to see the wood through the sheds or trees when it comes to unique signage solutions for your business. Contact us today to find out more.
A UNESCO heritage site, Bath is steeped in history and hosts an array of attractions for all ages. Most famous are its Roman Baths, but people also flock to the city to take in the iconic architecture of the Circus, the Royal Crescent and Pulteney Bridge. Business cards suppliers in Bath are able to provide local businesses with the best tools to communicate with these potential clients. At Minuteman Press, we have years of experience of printing for local businesses.
Business cards suppliers can offer cards printed with various finishes for all budgets in Bath. A traditional, smooth finish looks smart on a 400gsm board. For more contemporary or fashion-led finishes, consider engraved foil, or textured business cards. A pared-down uncoated finish also provides an understated yet stylish look to a card.
It is important to remember that business cards convey something about the personality or ethos of a brand. In addition to considering the finish of a card, pay attention to the shape of it. A traditional rectangle works well but, to make a bold impression, a square card or a mini business card can help a brand to stand out from the crowd.
Business cards suppliers in Bath are able to advise on all elements of the printing process. At Minuteman Press, we are no exception. Contact us to discuss your ideas and needs with our knowledgeable colleagues.
Tina’s shop and workshop is based on a beautiful Bath shopping street. It is steep and can be very windy. The previous sign was a hanging sign which soon fell foul to the strong winds. It was important to get a solid, safe solution. After an on site meeting it was decided to go for a large version of her logo.
Tina’s original logo was designed as an orange logo back in 1991. Recently this had been adapted for use as gold. We first used the gold foil on Tina’s business cards in 2021. Gold continues to be used for invoice pads and we look to use gold where possible. We use our unique gold ink for this.
The new gold sign for our Bath goldsmith was to be bold and classy. We suggested a 3D sign safely anchored into the wall with a solid bracket. No more swinging in the wind for this sign.
Visuals made up, sample materials provided and all agreed. We moved to production.
The sign
We used a local fabricator to help make the sign. They suggest in order to create the vision using stainless steel with a mirror gold with a rigid hanging bracket. The hanging bracket painted black and the centre piece which held the two large rims together.
The result exceeded our signage expectations.
We had this back we checked all the components and parts needed to make this a successful install.
Another site survey with the client to ensure that we are happy with the exact final location for the sign took place.
The install
Know your limits. With the windy location and valuable sign to go up high it was important to get this right. We used a local contractor to help us put this up safely. They anchored this safely into the Bath stone building and tested it. More importantly they will be back on a few weeks to tighten and tidy. With our new install team we are confident that every sign will go up safely.
The result
Here is the gold sign for our Bath goldsmith in situ. High up on Bartlett Street in glorious mirror gold.
