Poster Design in Bristol

Posters for Bristol businesses and venues — window displays, in-store promotions, event bills and notices. Designed for the distance they are actually read from, which is the constraint that separates a poster that works across a room from one that only works held in your hand.

Why this comes up

The problem

Posters are designed on a screen at arm's length and displayed across a shop floor or a street. Type sized to look balanced on a monitor is unreadable at the distance the poster is seen from.

What you get

What we deliver

  • Type sized for real viewing distance, checked by printing a section at full scale
  • A hierarchy that survives a glance — the one thing to read first is unmistakable
  • Resolution set to the format, since a large poster is viewed further away and needs less
  • Colour prepared for the print process, including large flat areas that show banding
  • Sizes supplied for each place it will appear, rather than one file scaled up and down
  • Print-ready artwork with the mounting or display method accounted for

Poster Design in Bristol — common questions

How big should the text be?
Governed by viewing distance rather than by the poster's size. A rough working rule is about 25mm of cap height for every 10 metres of distance for a headline. The reliable test is printing a section at full size and standing where the viewer will.
What resolution do you need for a large poster?
Less than people assume, because large formats are viewed from further away. A billboard at 300dpi is enormous and unnecessary. The specification comes from the printer and the viewing distance together.
Will the colours match our other printed material?
Close, not identical, unless spot colours are used. Different presses and stocks shift colour, and a poster printed large-format will not exactly match a litho-printed brochure. Where exact matching matters, that needs specifying up front.
Can the same design work for social media?
The message can; the layout usually cannot. A poster is designed for distance and a social post for a small screen held close. Adapting properly is quick, resizing blindly is what produces unreadable posts.
Do you work with businesses across Bristol?
Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout South West, including Bristol and the surrounding Bristol area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
What kind of Bristol businesses do you usually work with?
Engineering-grade requirements from aerospace clients, and brand-led digital work from the creative and environmental sectors. Beyond that we work across Aerospace, Creative & Media, Technology, Financial Services and Environmental.
Do you cover the areas around Bristol?
Yes — we work throughout South West, including Cardiff, Bath, Southampton. Bristol is an urban area of roughly 700,000+, and we take on work across the wider Bristol region rather than the city boundary alone.
