The space for which the artwork will be placed on is huge. Initial plans to submit a single poster will obviously not be sufficient to fill the space and won't be appropriate to the posters size. Therefore a series of posters will have to be created to justify the large space dedicated to the artwork.
The interior of the office foyer is decorated with modern furniture and fittings that reflect the highly corporate nature of MEPC.
One of the initial poster composition sketches was the idea to incorporate the furniture into the posters design. Not entirely, but to extract the unique shapes and curves to create a 'graphic' piece of art that fits in with the interior design of the building.
Speaking to the buildings manager, it was interesting to learn that the site of the MEPC was where the old Central Station of Leeds used to be from 1854 to 1967. What remains as shown above is an old wagon lifting tower. Using the historical aspect of the site can help better form a concept for the poster series, rather than just creating 'graphic' work.
Taking pictures of the surrounding area outside the building will help establish a colour scheme for the poster that will be appropriate to its corporate image.
Another possible concept for the poster would be to replicate a glass effect that dominates the buildings facade.
