In 2004 we were awarded work to develop a complete map and wayfinding scheme for Castle Howard, York.

That was (in 2004) our largest and most complex scheme, which we were very very proud of. Six years later I revisited the scheme to survey amend the maps used within Ray Wood. This gave an oportunity to look at the scheme, which is standing up well, and looks well used.

My main coment is the quality of digital printing back then. Not a patch on current technology, and clearly struggling with UV and sticky fingers.

Also, our design and typography, which six years on still looks good - but to my critical eye, some our signs have pretty naive layouts… six years ago Peter Andre was a national hero though !
