In today’s architecture and branding environments, walls and glass aren’t just surfaces — they’re canvases waiting to tell a story, reinforce identity, and elevate experience. At APG Design Studio, we don’t see glass, drywall, or partitions as limits. We see opportunity.
We combine creative vision, state-of-the-art print technology (SwissQ‑powered), rigorous quality control, and expert installation know-how to bring environments to life. And we do it not only for end clients but for industry partners — designers, general contractors, signage firms — who demand precision, aesthetics, and reliability.
The Magic Under Glass: Custom Glass Films
Glass is unique: it transmits, reflects, divides — but often it’s under-utilized. With custom glass films, we turn transparent barriers into expressive elements. Frosted or sandblasted effects, geometric patterns, subtle textures, or bold graphics — each can be tailored exactly to a project’s vision.
Privacy + translucency balance: You can retain daylight while controlling sightlines.
Visual delight: Intricate patterns and artwork can be embedded directly onto the film.
Functional overlays: Films can carry branding, signage, graphics, or even wayfinding cues.
At APG, the design possibilities are unlimited. Our design team works with clients from the concept stage, or steps in to refine existing schemes. Because we own the workflow — from design to print to installation — we manage consistency in resolution, color fidelity, and alignment across glass panels.
Walls That Speak: Wall Graphics & Environmental Graphics
Walls are a brand’s backdrop — or its megaphone.
Wall graphics allow immersive imagery, accent zones, murals, or messaging. They transform blank planes into storytelling canvases.
Environmental graphics go deeper: integrating signage, wayfinding, visual identity, even signage hierarchies into the architecture itself. These are the graphics that guide, orient, and connect people with space.
An environmental graphics program is never merely decoration — it must function, age well, harmonize with interiors, and reinforce purpose.
SwissQ Print — The Technology Powering Precision
A great design deserves a great production backbone. That’s where SwissQ print comes in. We harness SwissQ-powered digital printing — known for high resolution, consistency, and color depth — to ensure that even the finest details reproduce cleanly on film and substrate.
Because APG controls the entire pipeline:
Color management & proofing — we calibrate from design to output, reducing surprises.
High-resolution workflows — gradients, fine lines, subtle textures — all are preserved.
Robust materials & finishing — lamination, protective coatings, and substrate prep help ensure longevity in real-world use.
This print capability enables us to push creative boundaries: from subtle gradations on glass films to massive wall graphics with rich photographic detail.
Attention to Detail & Quality Control
In a field where a slight miscut, seam misalignment, or edge lift can ruin the illusion, details matter. At APG:
Every design passes through mockups and digital proofs.
Seams and joins are planned strategically (horizontal or vertical, depending on orientation).
Material tolerances, adhesives, substrate curvature — all are accounted for.
Before installation, we conduct pre-checks on substrate condition, alignment, ambient temperature/humidity, dust control, and masking.
During installation, low-angle lighting and fine adjustments guide final placement.
We don’t just finish a job — we inspect it, adjust it, fine-tune it, and guarantee it meets our standards.
Installation Expertise: From Vision to Reality
Installation is not just “sticking film on glass or wall.” It’s a craft. We deploy:
Experienced, trained crews who know the nuances of pressure-sensitive adhesives, heat-forming, edge sealing, and stress relief.
Tools and best practices — edge sealing, gradual heating, overlapping techniques, clean squeegee paths.
Sequenced installation planning to minimize disruption in occupied spaces.
Because we’re both designers and installers, we think ahead: we build templates, pre-cut panels, and simulate constraints so that on-site surprises are minimized.
Serving Industry Partners: Trade & Collaborative Workflows
One of the strengths of APG is how well we collaborate with industry partners — architects, designers, signage firms, GCs, window-film companies:
We design and print for trade clients, offering trade-level pricing, flexibility, and collaboration. APG Design Studio
We can integrate into broader execution chains: you bring us the specs; we deliver install-ready panels.
We work with partner firms to co-manage timelines, margins, design handoffs, and installation coordination.
By being a responsive, reliable backend for trade professionals, we amplify their capacity and trust in the final outcome.
