the brief

Our team at edirect were approached by Caterpillar Marine Power UK Ltd to provide an eye-catching pitch relating to the company’s brand development. They tasked us to create a bespoke design for a breakout room in their new offices in Dorset, with the final finish being displayed on the walls.

We were informed that the room was to be used as a space for employees and visitors to either hold meetings or spend a few minutes of their busy day relaxing. The company requested that a timeline of their history be showcased around the room.

bespoke design for a breakout room

the challenge

With a task such as this, it is imperative that the client’s vision is realised. From our meeting with Caterpillar, we learned that the design needed to feel welcoming yet could also act as a reminder of the company’s growth.

The company already has a well-known brand, so it was essential that their image was not lost in our design. However, we also wanted to create something different to demonstrate the company’s ability to develop.

For the project to work, our team at edirect had the challenge of showcasing Caterpillar’s milestones in a manner that would attract attention while simultaneously not detracting from the purpose of the breakroom.

It was finding that balance which was the most challenging aspect of this task. Our team were well aware of the obstacles when creating this bespoke design, and in our pitch we explained in detail how the walls would display the message Caterpillar wanted to evoke.

the solution

In order to meet the brief given to us, we came up with a truly unique design that blew the client away during the pitch. Caterpillar were so impressed with edirect’s implementation of their vision that they commissioned us to create the timeline for their Dorset office.

We ensured that the historic timeline not only told a story, but it also maintained Caterpillar Marine Power UK’s brand throughout. That was an incredibly important aspect of the project as the aim was to create a design that individuals in the room would remember, imprinting the company’s brand in their minds.

Our finished designs were given the seal of approval from the company and we ensured that they were displayed on the walls in time for the launch of the new building. The work from our dedicated team at edirect was praised by visitors to the launch, which was attended by the local MP, MEP and a group of other VIP guests.
