Project Guides for Large Format Printing & Commercial Graphics
Great graphics projects start before anything is printed.
The right material, surface, scale, finish, installation path, and production process all matter. A wall mural has different requirements than a window film. A reverse printed acrylic sign has different production considerations than a rigid poster panel. A building barricade requires different planning than a backlit display. A corporate office refresh may need wall graphics, branded glass, acrylic panels, and architectural finishes working together.
This Insights section gives buyers a clearer way to understand those options.
The goal is simple: help commercial teams plan smarter, choose the right graphic solution, and understand how Lux can support the project from concept through production.

Lux in the News: UNIQLO
Featured from Lux’s project archive, Lux Graphic Imaging teamed up with Mona Kim, a visual artist and design consultant from Paris, to create UNIQLO’s holiday windows for the NYC 5th Avenue and SoHo flagship stores.
Lux created and installed 2,000 square feet of custom transparent gradient film, 2,000 square feet of dichroic film, and 2,000 square feet of Lumisty.
Project notes like this help buyers understand what was produced, where it was installed, which materials were involved, and how Lux supports high-visibility retail environments.
Built to Help You Plan the Right Graphic Solution

Frequently Asked Questions
What should the Lux News page be used for?
The News page should be used for project guides, material education, case-study notes, planning resources, and commercial graphics insights. It should not be limited to company announcements.
Should this page be called News or Insights?
The URL can stay /news/ if it already exists, but the page heading should probably use Insights or News & Insights. That better matches the SEO strategy and gives Lux room to publish educational content.
What types of articles should Lux publish first?
The first articles should support the highest-priority service pages, including large format printing, architectural finishes, acrylic graphics, wall murals, building wraps, backlit displays, storefront window graphics, and corporate office graphics.
How does the News page help SEO?
It supports topical authority by answering buyer questions, linking into service pages, supporting geo pages, and helping Google understand Lux’s expertise across large format printing, window graphics, architectural finishes, acrylic signs, branded interiors, and rollouts.
Should every blog post link to a service page?
Yes. Every post should link to at least one relevant service page, one related service page, and a quote or contact path. Many posts should also link to a portfolio category or case study.
Should Lux write general business news?
Only occasionally. Most content should be useful to buyers planning commercial graphics projects. The goal is not to publish news for the sake of publishing. The goal is to support search visibility, buyer education, and quote-ready traffic.
