Brushstroke Creatives (BC) a full-scale print service provider under the Union Inks and Graphics Philippines, Inc. (UIGPI) recently unveiled its latest line of services in an exhibit titled, “Brewing Innovations” at Primer Star Center in Leon Guinto, Malate, Manila. In partnership with Designery and Primer Group of Companies, BC set up a posh gallery of various artworks and key sections of a typical operation such as Pre-production, Production and Re-tell areas where guests can visualize the development process of BC’s newest crop of services.
Agripino Ferrer, General Manager of UIGPI highlighted that the team is committed to converting client’s imagination to reality – from design, fabrication and installation and Brewing Innovations is an avenue that showcased BC’s complete branding or display solutions.
“We at Brushstrokes Creatives pride ourselves that we continuously explore innovations in our materials and applications whilst ensuring that our clients are well taken cared of and are given top notch products and services,” said Mary Sy, BC Business Development Manager.
Given that the brewing of innovation begins at the pre-production stage, a visual display of the fundamental elements of design execution was showcased. These included a magnet board, a wide variety of material swatches, and rigid materials such as deco panels, corrugated board and wood.
Next stop during the tour was the production stage, an area which showed how the machine works and immersed the guests with processes involved when actualizing design plans. This area has a fabric lightbox, the assembly process of different materials to standees, build-up letters for signage, portable booth systems or modules that are space savers and easy to set-up, as well as work stations with BC’s production team showing how it’s done.
The last stop is the “Re-tell” area where guests see actual installations of three design visions. These included a window display with a travel and adventure theme sponsored by Columbia, a coffee set-up presented in partnership with Commune, and a photo gallery of BC’s past works and beautiful illustrations from CANVAS. A play on the word “Retail”, BC envisioned this area to be a place where imagination and creativity work that can help companies “re-tell” their brand story in a new and different way through various innovations in lighted signage, fabric backdrop, cut-out glass stickers, and product display risers.
Sy stressed about the importance of total customer experience involving the five senses in the retail industry today. From window display, to music, mood or serving coffee, customer experience is imperative especially with the rise of online shopping.
Hosted by Mike Acuna, a brand talk was also held along with raffle segments with minor and major prizes for guests from the event sponsors such as the Primer Group of Companies, Designery, and Junknot.
Conceived to reflect BC’s ethos of constant development and care for the environment, “Brewing Innovations” is a testament of the company’s passion for generating pioneering and ingenious ideas and possibilities in the field of digital printing and cutting solutions using some recyclable materials and water-based inks. Moreover, the exhibit served to mirror BC’s willingness to guide its clients through the entire design process.
Like good coffee, BC knows that each stage of development is vital. Starting from the brewing process all the way to serving the cup, BC vows not only to brew innovations but also, to infuse meaningful partnerships.
BC is constantly seeking new and creative ways to enhance its services to various stakeholders and brand leaders across different industries. From advertising and retail to real estate, design, and architecture, BC continues to forge relationships with robust clients such as Uniqlo, Smart, Digitel, SM, Robinsons Group, Megaworld, Vista Group, Filinvest, TaskUs, Sanitary Care, Products Asia, Trends & Concepts, Bratpack, ResToeRun, Sneakpeek, R.O.X., Grind, Flight 001 and The Travel Club.
