Ruddington Village Signs
Tasked with the exciting project of creating new village signage for Ruddington, the Design Team at WigWag worked with Faye from the Parish Council to develop a series of concepts that depicted some of the Village’s most iconic features.
Creating initial watercolour paintings of the Frameworks Museum, Church and Railway, we wanted to evolve these aspects into a design that encompassed several key aspects of the Village in one painting.
Drawing inspiration from the Knitting Museum, St Peter’s Rooms and Rushcliffe steam trains, one of our designers, Owen envisioned a scene whereby a traditional locomotive passes through the Village’s historic buildings.
This concept was further developed into a beautiful watercolour interpretation which has formed the basis of our new signage.
Following the approval of our design, we worked with the Parish Council and Lyndie from Signs Of The Times to create Ruddington’s new boundary signs.
Transforming our concept into beautiful signage, each element of our design was accurately cut from wood and layered to create depth within the depicted scene.
With the cast created, our watercolour-inspired design was then hand painted on to each of the boundary signs with stunning detail.
Working with a single artist to ensure a consistent style was maintained, the WigWag team are thrilled with the final artwork!
