St. John’s Terminal Google Office

Our 100% recycled Felt­ed acousti­cal wallcovering dig­i­tal­ly print­ed with a cus­tom design enables acousti­cal com­fort and col­lab­o­ra­tion in this building’s con­fer­ence rooms. In addi­tion, cus­tom-print­ed win­dow film allowed the design­ers to sustainably repur­pose pre-exist­ing glazing.

Step-by-Step

01

Get the Right Look

Our design­ers work with you to devel­op your con­cept and cre­ate pro­duc­tion-ready imagery. This can be a brand logo, an image cho­sen from stock, art­work from our Curat­ed Col­lec­tion, or a visu­al you provide.

02

Choose a Substrate

WG Cus­toms Lab can dig­i­tal­ly print on a wide range of sub­strates, includ­ing tex­tured vinyl or PVC-free con­tract wall­cov­er­ings, Mylar fin­ish­es, acousti­cal felt and pan­els, uphol­stery tex­tiles, acrylic pan­els, win­dow film, and RAM­PART wall pro­tec­tion — take your pick. 

03

Take Your Measurements

Once the instal­la­tion area has been iden­ti­fied, pro­vide us with a draw­ing indi­cat­ing the exact mea­sure­ments of the space. Archi­tec­tur­al fea­tures and hard­ware ele­ments should be account­ed for in the lay­out (e.g., doors, win­dows, HVAC units, pilasters, etc.).

04

Approve and Deliver

We will send you a pre-pro­duc­tion sam­ple con­sist­ing of a small piece of the design at 100% scale along with a print­out of the entire design at a reduced scale. Review these sam­ples for col­or accu­ra­cy and image sharp­ness. Once approved, we get to printing!

Digital Submission Guidelines
  1. We accept a wide range of file formats, with a preference for Adobe Photoshop PSDs or Illustrator EPS files. If you have original artwork, we can provide high-resolution scanning.
  2. Once artwork is decided upon, we will provide a CAD of the image and an installation view that allows you to evaluate scale and overall design. If WG Customs Lab is developing brand new patterning, the scale of which is sufficiently large, you will receive, by email, a Design PDF that shows how your wallcovering will appear when sized, cropped, scaled and/or customized to your specifications. Essentially, this is an elevation drawing with a human form superposed to indicate scale. 
  3. When we receive your art approval, we will work with you to provide an Approvals Kit, which ties together color balance, pattern, and embossing.
  4. If adjustments are required, we will make them based on your direction and critical feedback.
  5. The Approvals Kit, or strike-off consists of a sample of your design at 100% scale printed on the specified substrate with the desired emboss. For a small scale pattern, you will receive a memo sample. If WG Customs Lab is developing new art, we will provide a full repeat to show you the total effect. The Approvals Kit should be reviewed for all design aspects: color, pattern, print quality, substrate and embossing.
  6. Once the sample is approved, we request a signed approval form with a cutting of the submitted sample. We will provide you with a lead time for production or mock-up yardage. WG Customs Lab will proceed with production upon receipt of approval.
  1. As with custom wallcovering, once artwork is decided upon, we will provide a CAD that allows you to evaluate the scale and overall design. 
  2. When we receive your art approval, we work with you to provide an Approvals Kit, which ties together color balance, pattern, and weave.
  3. If adjustments are required, we will make them based on your direction and critical feedback.
  4. The Approvals Kit, or strike-off, will be sent to you. In the case of custom upholstery, this consists of a sample of your textile. If WG Customs Lab is developing new art, we will provide a full repeat to show you the total effect. You should review this Approvals Kit for all design aspects: color, pattern, quality, and weave.
  5. Once the sample is approved, we request a signed approval form with a cutting of the submitted sample. We will provide you with a lead time for production or mock up yardage. WG Customs Lab will proceed with production upon receipt of approval.

RAMPART and PVC-free RAMPART Resolve can be digitally printed with the imagery of your choice. WG Customs Lab can reproduce your photographs, illustrations, or artwork on two RAMPART substrates—silk-like emboss Lay and natural fiber emboss Linen—and two RAMPART Resolve substrates—tight canvas emboss Pima Cotton and fine-grain leather texture Resolve Suede.
