Making a Bold Statement: Custom Wall Wrap for Ironworkers Local 8’s Upper Peninsula Office

When Ironworkers Local 8 wanted to put the finishing touch on their new Marquette, Michigan office, they envisioned something that would connect their UP location to the union’s Milwaukee roots. Kemmel Design delivered a stunning custom wall wrap featuring Milwaukee’s skyline – a testament to the ironworkers who helped build it.

The Project

The challenge was transforming an entire wall in the new Marquette office into a visual connection to Local 8’s history and achievements. The Milwaukee skyline, built in part by generations of Local 8 ironworkers, serves as the perfect symbolic bridge between the two locations.

Our Approach

Creating a large-scale wall wrap requires meticulous attention to detail at every stage:

• High-resolution imagery of Milwaukee’s skyline
• Precise measurements and scaling
• Professional-grade materials for long-term durability
• Expert installation for a seamless finish

The Impact

This wall wrap does more than decorate a space – it:

• Creates an immediate visual impact
• Connects two union locations through shared history
• Showcases the scale of ironworkers’ contributions to urban development
• Transforms an ordinary wall into an architectural statement
• Reinforces pride in the trade

The Details Matter

In large-scale installations like this, success lies in the details:

• Perfect alignment of design elements
• Smooth application across the entire surface
• Careful attention to corners and edges
• Professional-grade materials that resist fading and peeling
• Expert installation techniques for a flawless finish

Beyond Decoration

Custom wall wraps serve multiple purposes in a professional space:

• Create a powerful visual impression
