Studio One commission award winning artist



Studio One have commissioned award winning Harrogate artist, Adam King, to produce four paintings for a luxury office building in the town.

Adam has exhibited his work across the UK, and was the first artist in residence at Knaresborough Castle, so Studio One were confident that Adam's locally inspired artwork would be the perfect finishing touch to the reception area.

The four pieces will hang alongside the new directional signage which will be installed by Studio One and were designed to compliment the Art Nouveau architecture in the building.

Hard to miss! IFFE 2010

The canopy was suspended over the hall, some 3 metres in the air, combined with a 6 metre steel cladded fully illuminated monolith.

3.4 million refurbishment of Harrogate Library



Working with Harrogate Borough Council, and sponsors Stowe Family Law, plans are underway to brighten up the hoardings around the building site of the planned 3.4 million refurbishment and extensions to Harrogate library. Students from Harrogate College have been working on designs based on the concept of the "written word" for the section facing the rose garden.

Studio One are proud to have been approached by Harrogate College to advise and work with their students on this project. The students have visited the studio on several occasions to ask advice on their initial conceptual ideas, then popping back for advice on pre production, artwork and set up.

"When it came to the graphic production, we invited the students back in to see how the panels were produced, giving them samples of print for their course work, and an opportunity to see how a design and production studio works on a 'live project'.

The students, all of whom are about to complete their foundation in art and design at Harrogate College, were professional and very pro active in their approach with us"
, said Tracy Houseman, Creative Director of Studio One.
