Art can make a powerful statement about your organisation. It can reinforce the values and ideology that your company stands for; It can inspire visitors who come to your buildings and the employees who work there, and it can enhance the interior space, making it a vibrant and engaging place that lifts the spirit in ways that make people want to spend time there.

Martin Hinchcliffe has created some inspired commissions for both public and private sector organisations. Working with colleagues at mmdesign, Martin oversees the entire creative process from initial client briefings, the development of concept proposals through to the installation of the completed works.
