Celebrating reading with a transformed reception area 

Riverview Primary is a fantastic new build school in the heart of Salford. They contacted us after they saw some of our wall art projects at an exhibition.

They wanted to celebrate reading in school to both the children and parents by creating a wall art display in their main reception. We discussed a few ideas and looked at all the wall space they had available. Our design team then created this fantastic scheme. The doors are the main entrance to the school, we covered them with famous children’s book covers so when a child enters the school they are opening a book.
The doors were surrounded with a bookcase visual to introduce other books that they might like to read. Across the front of the reception desk, we applied book spines which again inspired children and parents to try different books.

The finishing touch was the ‘Welcome to our reading school’ lettering which was done using the Dr Zeus font.
