Geographia (pictured beside)—The Geographia collection explores the map medium as a tool for visual and conceptual exploration. By using, manipulating, and at times breaking mapping conventions, our designers pushed the medium to explore the intersection of psychology and geography. Unlike traditional maps, these designs focus on the psychological experiences of space, revealing emotional and experiential interpretations of cartography. The final murals were created with digital and analog techniques such as collage, painting, weaving, and relief sculpture. Geographia is digitally printed to order on Type II substrates at our Los Angeles-based studio.
“Inspired by our inherent connection to space, Geographia explores the emotional and psychological experiences of geography,” said Rachel Brand, design + media manager, Astek.
In Bloom—Bas Meeuws’ work breathes new life into the 17th-century Dutch and Flemish still life genre. Using photography as a base, he draws on his catalogue of more than 13,000 species to create intricate floral arrangements, here and there enlivened by insects or gastropods. Demonstrating mastery in skill, his hyper-realistic photographic “paintings” are bursting with gorgeous and unexpected details. In Bloom is an exclusive collection printed with precision as show-stopping murals by Astek.
Colour & Design
Window Film can enhance any design within a building by offering increased safety, comfort, security and ever saving benefits. Window Film actively reduces light pollution as well as allowing natural light while rejecting the heat that typically follows. This lowers the overall energy consumption of a building and contributes to LEED credits.
With Colour & Design Digital Imaging, it uses its Digital Window Film and Digital Wall Surfacing technology to unleash creative inspirations.
