Westfield London

The Pinnacle of British Retail

Hollywood Monster played a lead role in launching one of Europe’s largest and most ambitious retail destinations: Westfield London. From construction phase to grand opening — and long after — we delivered a full-scale signage and print programme that transformed the site and helped shape the brand experience. With building wraps, campaign graphics, shop front dressings and structural signage spanning the entire site, this was a landmark moment in UK retail and a long-term partnership that continues to this day.

As the centrepiece of a major West London regeneration programme, Westfield London needed a partner who could deliver at scale and under pressure. The launch required complete site dressing — from 500m of external hoardings to internal wayfinding, vinyl shop fronts and giant banner installations. The brief grew rapidly, and with every day closer to opening, the demands increased. Westfield needed precision, scale and speed — and a graphics team that could integrate seamlessly with its internal stakeholders, contractors and marketing partners.

“Westfield London was a landmark moment – not just for the UK retail sector, but for Hollywood Monster as a business. It pushed us to think bigger, act faster, and deliver smarter. We didn’t just meet the brief, we became part of the launch team, solving problems, scaling up, and making sure everything landed perfectly when it mattered most ”

Simon McKenzie, CEO | Hollywood Monster

Hollywood Monster was embedded across every stage of Westfield London’s launch – from early construction to the grand opening and beyond. Delivering over 500m of hoardings, 60+ shop front dressings, giant building wraps, station graphics, and permanent signage. As trusted graphics partner, we managed site-wide installations, complex structural builds.

Solutions We Provided Westfield

Hollywood Monster became an embedded partner in the pre-launch team, working alongside Westfield’s marketing, construction and operations departments to deliver every element of the signage programme.

As the opening approached, demand intensified — with retailers unable to move in on time, we were tasked with wrapping dozens of empty units to maintain visual continuity and brand experience. Our teams delivered high-quality installations under live conditions, tight access restrictions and rapid turnaround times.

Post-launch, our work continued. We became the trusted partner for monthly marketing campaigns, pop-up activations and event signage — including major delivery during the London 2012 Olympic Games.

We were responsible for…

  • 500m+ of external Dibond hoardings
  • Internal vinyl hoardings and over 60 shop front dressings
  • Giant building wraps spanning up to 60m x 30m
  • Structural design and fabrication of support frames for heavy banner installations
  • Campaign graphics across the building envelope and public-facing elevations
  • £100K temporary car park and wayfinding signage
  • Transport for London collaboration on graphics at Shepherd’s Bush, Wood Lane and White City stations
  • Permanent signage including built-up letters, illuminated totems, plinths and lightboxes

The Results

Hollywood Monster helped shape the visual identity of Westfield London before a single customer walked through the door. We delivered a seamless graphics and signage programme that supported contractors, placemakers and brand teams alike — establishing a launch standard that other retail centres would later follow.
