Graphics for aquatic environments

Swimming-pool graphics designed to perform.

SizeMatter designs, specifies and installs environmental decoration, graphics and signage for swimming pools and aquatic facilities. From pool halls and changing areas to wet-side routes and plant rooms, every solution is considered around the conditions it must withstand.

01 / What we produce

Graphics and signage for the whole aquatic facility

We bring decoration, information and technical identification together across swimming-pool environments—creating spaces that look considered, communicate clearly and are specified for demanding conditions.

02 / Pool environments

Made for the realities of aquatic environments.

Swimming-pool facilities place unusual demands on graphics, finishes and adhesives. We consider the environment, surface and maintenance regime before recommending how anything should be produced.

Humidity and condensation

Materials and finishes selected for consistently humid spaces, condensation and repeated exposure to moisture.

Temperature variation

Graphics specified around the temperatures and cycling found across pool halls, changing areas and associated facilities.

Pool chemicals and cleaning

Finishes considered against routine cleaning, disinfectants and the chemicals used within aquatic environments.

Surface compatibility

Each substrate is assessed so the preparation, adhesive and finish suit the surface to which the graphics will be applied.

Installation and access

Installation planned around operational facilities, wet areas, restricted access and future maintenance requirements.

Required service life

The specification is matched to how long the graphics need to perform, how they will be used and how they will be maintained.

03 / Our approach

Decoration starts with specification.

In swimming-pool environments, a strong visual concept is only part of the solution. Humidity, cleaning, surface condition, location and service life all affect how the work should be produced. We establish those requirements first, then develop decoration and graphics around them.

  1. 01Understand the aquatic environment
  2. 02Survey the site and surfaces
  3. 03Define performance requirements
  4. 04Design and specify the graphics
  5. 05Produce, install and hand over

How we develop the right solution

  • Designed for the intended pool environment
  • Materials matched to the surface and conditions
  • Clear and durable safety information
  • Decoration coordinated with the wider facility
  • Installation planned around access and operation

Responsibility for the overall regulatory compliance and safety of a facility remains with its operator and appointed advisers.

04 / Where we work

Aquatic environments are our starting point.

Our initial focus is swimming pools and aquatic facilities, where decorative impact, clear information and material performance must work together. The same specification-led thinking can also support other demanding environments.

Core specialism

Swimming pools and aquatic facilities

Pool halls, changing villages, hydrotherapy facilities, wet-side circulation, reception spaces and plant rooms—considered as one complete visual environment.

Leisure and wellness

Decoration, wayfinding and identification for spas, health clubs and other humid, high-use facilities.

Healthcare and hydrotherapy

Hygienic, cleanable and legible graphics for hydrotherapy and specialist care environments.

Education and community facilities

Engaging decoration, clear wayfinding and robust everyday graphics for schools and public facilities.

Other challenging environments

Our specification-led approach can also be applied where surfaces, cleaning, access or operating conditions require extra consideration.

Planning a new pool or refurbishment?

Involve SizeMatter early so decoration, signage and technical identification can be considered alongside finishes, surfaces, operations and installation requirements.
