Westfield Bradford

Used by Westfield for marketing and for the Westfield agents to lease the retail space. Illustrating the internal shop detail and the double height fronts was key. Each shop had to have very detailed, product specific interiors to show how much space was available and the possible use for each. The fronts had to be branded so that the shop was recognisable but not so that it was an existing brand.
