British Museum: Kingdom of Ife
This major exhibition presents exquisite examples of brass, copper, stone and terracotta sculpture from West Africa. Ife flourished as a political, spiritual, cultural and economic centre in the 12th–15th centuries AD, and was an influential hub of local and long-distance trade networks. The artists of Ife developed a refined and highly naturalistic sculptural tradition in stone, terracotta, brass and copper to create a style unlike anything in Africa at the time.
In order to match the museums precise colour palette for this extraordinary culture and produce a rustic matt finish, BAF printed images and descriptions directly to painted MDF panels using the Rho 600. Giant wallpaper drops were printed on the Rho 351 and vinyl texts were created.

Nicole Farhi: City Scheme LFW 2010
Esther Coombs beautifully crafted illustrations are more often seen on vintage ceramics than on boutique windows but when Jamie Shouli, Nicole Farhi’s Creative VM Director, discovered her work at Tent he intuited a great talent, ripe for a collaboration for his London Fashion Week scheme.
Jamie commissioned Esther to illustrate famous London landmarks which were converted by BAF into intricately cut vinyl graphics on windows, walls and Perspex for Nicole Farhi’s 5 London stores.
The stylish images perfectly enhanced the mood of Nicole Farhi’s Show Collection, imbued with a London spirit. Nicole Farhi are proud to work with up and coming artistic talent. Indeed, it makes perfect sense for both parties: Esther received many enquiries through her website and the scheme saw sales increases for the fashion brand.
