Congratulations to our client, Kyte Powertech, based in Cavan, on becoming part of the global RS Group. As a leading energy solutions provider, Kyte approached us to support their presence at several key industry events in the UK—and we were proud to deliver.

We supplied a custom ISO-frame modular exhibition system used for Data Centre World in London and the All-Energy Exhibition and Conference in Glasgow, with another event lined up for Birmingham this September. The ISO-frame system is designed for maximum flexibility as it is lightweight, tool-free, and easy to transport and assemble, making it ideal for international use.

At Studio GBM, we’re always on the lookout for ways to combine quality, design, along with sustainability and our branded Senator pens are a perfect example.

Senator pens set the standard for eco-conscious office essentials. Each Senator pen is produced using 100% renewable energy, reducing environmental impact from the very first step of production.

Every visible part is crafted from bio-based plastic derived from sugarcane, resulting in a significantly lower carbon footprint compared to imported alternatives. In fact, Senator leads the industry in CO₂ performance per metre of writing length.

We’re proud to share one of our recent projects: a custom wall mural created for The Absolute Hotel in the heart of Limerick. This was more than just a design commission, it was a celebration of local talent, collaboration, and the power of bringing original artwork to life at scale.

At the core of this project was Jane Hogan, a gifted Limerick-based artist known for her vibrant, hand-drawn illustrations that capture the charm and character of her surroundings. Jane created an original drawing specifically for this space, full of intricate details and expressive line work that beautifully portray the Absolute Hotel. 

Studio GBM was honoured to play a part in a luxury wedding that captured global attention, held at the iconic Adare Manor—ranked among Forbes’ top ten hotels in the world.

We used the opportunity to collaborate with fellow Limerick businesses in delivering a world-class event experience.

This project was a standout collaboration between several exceptional Limerick-based businesses, brought together for an event of international distinction. 

The event was orchestrated by renowned celebrity wedding planner Marcy Blum, celebrated by Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar as one of the world’s leading wedding planners, with a client list that includes Billy Joel, George Soros, and Kevin Bacon. On the ground, the event was expertly coordinated by event designer Sophie Landry, who ensured every detail  came together seamlessly.

Housed in one of Limerick City’s most significant examples of mid-eighteenth-century classical architecture, the Hunt Museum is an iconic landmark designed by Italian architect Daviso de Arcort. The recent refurbishment of its café space honours this rich history while introducing fresh artistic elements to enhance the visitor experience.

Studio GBM was honoured to be commissioned to produce a bespoke fine art print mural for the new space. As the only Irish company with the capacity to deliver fine art printing at such a large scale, we were uniquely positioned to bring this vision to life.

Studio GBM was proud to attend the first ever Limerick IT Summit, held on March 6th at the Dell campus in Raheen. 

This is a new community-driven business conference designed to support the SME sector, providing a platform for education and collaboration. 

It was an invaluable opportunity to connect with like-minded professionals, and showcase the diverse range of services we provide alongside 30 other local businesses. 

It was inspiring to be part of this inaugural event. As business in the MidWest region continues to thrive, we look forward to fostering new partnerships and strengthening our connections within the SME community.

We have now been appointed as the official print partner for the Limerick IT Summit. 

March brought an exciting addition to our studio, our latest investment, the Canon imagePROGRAF TX-4200 printer.

As true print nerds, we can’t help but admire this powerhouse. With a staggering 15,360 nozzles, it delivers ultra-fine 5-picoliter droplets, ensuring exceptional image quality and precision. 

Sustainability is always a priority for us, and the TX-4200 meets our high expectations. With an EPEAT Gold rating for energy efficiency, it aligns perfectly with our commitment to eco-conscious design.

Throughout 2024, GBM hosted a successful series of lunchtime events under the Lunch & Learn banner.

Each session included a guided tour of the building and a showcase of our production capabilities, highlighting the innovative products and services offered by our premium brands.

Held on the last Tuesday of every month between 1pm and 2pm, the events welcomed professionals from a wide range of sectors. Attendees enjoyed a light lunch while connecting with peers, making Lunch & Learn a valuable opportunity for networking and collaboration.

The series proved to be a fantastic platform for sharing ideas, fostering new business relationships, and demonstrating the breadth of what Studio GBM has to offer.
