Ebbsfleet

Ebbsfleet International was created to complement the services offered by Ashford International on the Eurostar service from St Pancras to mainland Europe. Wood&Wood worked closely with AMEC Group and the designers Transport Design to develop signage that would reflect the sleek and futuristic design of this new passenger terminal. A full range of signage carrying the newly created Ebbsfleet logo was furnished, from building signage, to totems, flagpoles and banners ensuring consistency of the Ebbsfleet and Eurostar branding across a wide range of medium. With challenging timescales a unique design was created for the family of three totem types using brushed stainless steel, which was perforated for the side casings. The larger units standing 2.4 metres out of the ground are designed to direct traffic arriving at the terminal from the network of nearby motorways. The smaller units carry passenger information at the entrances and on the dedicated Eurostar platform. By maintaining close contact with the designers throughout, production and installation were completed well before the opening of this state of the art terminal.

"Working to tight timescales Wood&Wood’s production expertise allowed them to take an innovative approach and produce a signage system that reflects the contemporary design of Ebbsfleet International. We are delighted with the quality of the end product.” Tony Howard , Transport Design
