Frank is a ready-to-go solution for all your wayfinding and urban realm street furniture needs. The family of products combine infinite customisation, flexibility, DDA compliance and a holistic street furniture solution from an experienced wayfinding design consultancy and manufacturer.

Together fwdesign and Woodhouse have over 30 years' experience in developing urban realm products. Frank is the evolution of this experience in ready-to-install product form to today's needs and tomorrow's aspirations in cohesive wayfinding, signage and street furniture.

The product

Available in a wide choice of materials and finishes, no two versions of frank will ever look the same. Every product can be sized to suit, and dressed in any combination of materials, finishes and colours according to your requirements and identity. If you don't see something in our offer that matches with your town identity then we'll happily develop it for you.

Because the design development of frank is already completed, it's possible to project accurate costing at the outset, based on your specific needs rather than a costly bespoke approach.

Sustainability is a priority. frank is designed to be disassembled (for recycling) whilst solar frank makes illuminated wayfinding a commercially viable option in any location.

Frank's comprehensive range, and modular ability to be updated and extended in future, will create consistency across even the most fragmented urban environment.

The service

The biggest myth in all wayfinding systems is that any sign will direct, and more is better. When specifying frank we will help you identify the where signage and furniture should be located and what graphics will best communicate the information to pedestrians. We then produce project specific branding and information graphic solutions that ensure frank works effectively as a wayfinding system.

Frank can carry existing graphics or we can help you develop these for the best possible result. The product can only be as effective as the wayfinding strategy and information graphics displayed.

Whatever your challenge, whatever your environment, frank has something that meets your need.
