CHALLENGE

Activating visual solutions for a high-stakes tournament like the Stanley Cup Playoffs presented a set of unique challenges. One of the main hurdles was the unpredictability of updating and installing print graphics as the teams advanced in the tournament. 
This meant our team had to be agile and ready for quick turnarounds, especially when teams like the Florida Panthers made their way to the Stanley Cup Final. Such rapid changes in branding requirements demanded a high level of flexibility and precision in our approach.

CHALLENGES

  • Relatively low budget for design, implementation and marketing
  • 8-week time constraint for the whole project
  • Website must match existing digital corporate identity
  • Website should be deeply integrated into the HubSpot solution
  • Design & development from scratch is not feasible
  • Customer would like to be able to edit content and structure
  • Website must be implemented in three languages
  • Webdesign must match modern design standards

SOLUTION

We installed front-facing banners measuring an impressive 360 x 504 ft, that showcased the Florida Panthers branding and the players competing in the playoffs. Additionally, we produced custom graphic backlit decals that were installed on various surfaces throughout the stadium, as well as light boxes and elevator decals. To complete the look, we created over 20 pole banner graphics made out of our white block-out vinyl. 
Our team adopted an efficient production process that allowed for quick design revisions and printing. We maintained open communication channels with our Florida Panthers' client to stay updated on their progress and branding needs. This collaboration ensured that we could adapt and create new graphics as needed, guaranteeing that the stadium's visual elements remained up-to-date with the evolving playoff scenario.
