A regeneration project starts telling its story long before anyone moves in or opens a shop door. It’s the hoardings, the wayfinding signs, the printed graphics wrapped around a site that do the talking during construction- building anticipation, signalling what’s coming, and helping a building site feel like it already belongs to the neighbourhood around it.
For Argent LLP, one of the UK’s leading property developers, that visual layer mattered across some of London’s most ambitious regeneration schemes. From the buzz of King’s Cross to the changing face of Tottenham Hale and Brent Cross, each development called for graphics with their own identity, work that had to speak to visitors, contractors and the wider public all at once.
As Argent’s trusted visual communications partner, ARC UK delivered a complete large format graphics programme across all three sites. Working hand in hand with the project and marketing teams, we handled everything from consultation and site surveys through to print production, installation and ongoing support – helping each regeneration story unfold through bold, large-scale visual communication.

Argent is one of the UK’s most reputed and most successful regeneration and mixed-use developers. They mainly believe in simple ambition. To create thriving places where people can live, work, shop and spend time, with community, sustainability and long-term value built into the thinking from the start. They are best known for three major regeneration schemes- King’s Cross, Tottenham Hale and Brent Cross Town.
Each has its own identity, its own audience, its own set of objectives, but they’re all working toward the same thing- places that feel welcoming and genuinely connected to the communities around them.
Supporting projects at this scale takes more than high-quality print. It calls for a partner who can deliver consistent visual communication across multiple sites, while staying adaptable as requirements shift and construction environments change around them.
Following a successful collaboration, ARC UK became Argent LLP’s trusted partner for large format graphics- providing the consultancy, production and installation needed to bring each development’s vision to life while keeping day-to-day site operations running smoothly.
Every regeneration project tells a story long before the buildings are finished. Hoardings become canvases, wayfinding guides visitors through changing environments, and large-format graphics carry the vision of what’s to come.
Across King’s Cross, Tottenham Hale and Brent Cross, that meant more than printing graphics. It meant delivering one consistent visual identity across three live sites, each with its own construction programme, marketing campaigns and installation demands – all while standing up to the wear of an active outdoor environment without losing that premium finish.
To make it work, the project needed:
The real challenge was bringing each vision to life while keeping every site feeling welcoming, informative and alive throughout construction.
Every regeneration project is unique, but they all depend on clear communication. Whether introducing future developments, guiding visitors through changing spaces or creating memorable first impressions, graphics play a far bigger role than many people realise.
Working closely with Argent LLP, ARC UK delivered a complete visual communications programme across King’s Cross, Tottenham Hale and Brent Cross. By managing the project from consultation through to installation, we helped create a consistent experience across three landmark developments while adapting to the individual requirements of each site.
Rather than supplying graphics alone, ARC UK acted as an extension of Argent LLP’s project team. From site surveys and artwork preparation to production, installation and ongoing support, every stage was carefully coordinated to ensure quality, consistency and efficient delivery across multiple locations.
Each regeneration project had its own identity, audience and marketing objectives. Working from Argent LLP’s creative vision, our team transformed design concepts into large-format graphics that enhanced construction hoardings, public spaces and visitor journeys while maintaining a consistent brand presence across every development.
The scope of work included a huge range of visual communication solutions. It contained hoarding graphics, wayfinding signage, pavement graphics, safety messaging and promotional displays. All signage and graphics were produced using durable materials suited to long-term outdoor use, helping the developments.
Coordinating work across three major regeneration projects required careful planning and close collaboration. ARC UK’s experienced team worked alongside Argent LLP to schedule production and installation around active construction programmes, ensuring graphics were delivered safely, efficiently and exactly when they were needed.
Delivering graphics across three major regeneration projects called for more than quality print. It required careful planning, close collaboration and the flexibility to respond as each development evolved. From the earliest discussions through to ongoing site support, ARC UK managed every stage to ensure the right graphics were delivered at the right time.
The project began with understanding the objectives for each development. Working closely with Argent LLP and its project teams, ARC UK reviewed the scope, site requirements and campaign priorities to develop a tailored delivery plan for King’s Cross, Tottenham Hale and Brent Cross.
Precise site surveys by the team formed the base of every installation. Accurate measurements and technical assessments ensured every graphic was produced to fit perfectly, whether for hoardings, wayfinding signage, pavement graphics or promotional displays.
Once artwork and specifications were approved, the graphics were produced using high-quality materials designed to perform in demanding outdoor environments. Every element was manufactured to deliver vibrant colour, long-lasting durability and a consistent finish across all three developments.
With multiple live construction sites in progress, installation required careful coordination. ARC UK’s experienced team worked around construction schedules to install graphics safely, efficiently and with minimal disruption, ensuring each development maintained a polished and professional appearance.
Every installation was thoroughly checked to ensure graphics met the required standards for quality, positioning and finish. This attention to detail helped maintain a consistent visual identity across every site.
As the regeneration projects continued to evolve, ARC UK remained a trusted delivery partner, providing additional graphics, updated messaging and new installations to support changing project requirements throughout each phase of development.
The success of a regeneration project isn’t measured only by the buildings that eventually take shape. It also signifies how the development presents itself along the way. Well-planned and installed graphics can turn a construction site into something that informs, inspires, and gets people genuinely excited about what’s coming.
Through its long-term partnership with Argent LLP, ARC UK helped shape that experience across King’s Cross, Tottenham Hale and Brent Cross. Every hoarding, wayfinding sign and large-format graphic played its part in a consistent brand experience- supporting visitors, local communities and project stakeholders through every stage of regeneration.
High-quality graphics turned construction hoardings into striking visual displays, communicating the vision behind each development while lifting the look and feel of the surrounding environment.
Wayfinding and information graphics helped visitors, residents and contractors move around evolving sites with confidence, making the experience easier throughout every phase of construction.
Each location came with its own requirements, but ARC UK held production, installation and project delivery to the same high standard across all three regeneration schemes.
By delivering that same quality time and again, ARC UK became a trusted partner for Argent LLP- one built on collaboration, reliability and support that carried across multiple regeneration projects.
“ARC UK have consistently delivered high-quality work across a number of our regeneration projects. Their ability to respond quickly, maintain exceptional quality and support our evolving project requirements has made them a trusted partner throughout our developments.”
