Trigger took on the task of designing and installing a set of stunning wall graphics to meet these aims. We wanted a design that would completely overhaul the library’s appearance. The chosen theme was a cloudy dreamscape that would transport students into the enchanting world of books. This theme would fit perfectly with the school’s desire to use the top section of the wall. The concept for the wall graphics brought together a mix of characters from classic and contemporary children’s books. This not only celebrated timeless stories, it would also introduce students to new and diverse literary adventures. Highlights of the design include:

The Iron Man by Ted Hughes: A bespoke illustration of The Iron Man is an impactful element of the design. This striking depiction captures the attention of the pupils as they enter the library.

Owl Babies by Martin Waddell: The three endearing owl siblings from this beloved children’s book lie on a section of the wall, nestled in a tree. The design captures the essence of family and togetherness that the story conveys.

My Papi Has a Motorcycle by Isabel Quintero: Characters from this contemporary work were incorporated to introduce pupils to more recent literary gems. It showcases the school’s commitment to celebrating both old and new stories.

Cloudy Dreamscape: The background design featured a dusky night sky. With floating clouds and whimsical stars. This theme provides a dreamy and otherworldly atmosphere. Promoting a sense of wonder and exploration.

Ceiling Tile Graphics: One of the unique and immersive features of this project was the addition of graphics on the ceiling tiles. This created an environment where students feel like they are surrounded by the characters and scenes from the books. The clouds from the dreamscape extended to the ceiling, further enhancing the overall atmosphere.
