1. Wallbranding 101
A one-stop systematic solution to leveraging
the walls of your facility. Let your walls resonate
with on-point messaging that speaks to your
clients, employees and all that enter your
facility.
2. How many times have you
entered a beautiful building,
whether it be a hospital,
medical clinic, corporate
headquarters, physician’s
office, or government
building and were totally
turned off by the “old lady”
artwork that was placed on
the walls taking up valuable
space. Or how about that
artwork in the out of date
frame with the artwork that
has been in place so long
that it has turned blue and
has nothing to do with its
environment?
It’s a new day! Customers
and employees expect and
deserve more. Why waste
the acres and acres of
space on the walls of your
facility with artwork that just
fills space? Leverage that
space for messaging. We
have been involved with a
number of successful
messaging installations in
healthcare, corporate,
government and
entertainment environments.
Branding is all about
emotion. We assist our clients
in extending that brand to
the walls of your facility.
After all, branding should be
exercised at every
touchpoint of customers
and employees as they are
the number one evangelists
of your brand. If they aren’t
living and breathing the
brand, no one will.
Our chosen medium is still
photography. Photography
allows us to get the message
tight. To get the specific
subject matter that conveys
the exact message of the
business or organization. We
depend heavily on locally
produced imagery to tailor
our customer’s message. We
learn about the story you
want to tell and then go
about pulling images from
our extensive library and/or
creating new images to
craft a coherent message
throughout your facility.
We’d love to be your
partner in letting your walls
resonate your brand.
Read on to find out how we
do it.
What’s wallbranding?
3. 3
Our turnkey service includes
initial planning and image
creation; space design; printing,
matting and framing all
completed by our staff in our
4,000 square foot production
facility and installation of the
artwork on your walls.
Expanding from photography
into interior design projects was
a natural extension for our
company. Photographer, Mike
Klemme, has a longstanding
love of architecture and realizes
the importance of beautiful
artwork for the overall
ambience and livability of any
structure. He personally reviews
all floor plans and works with the
developer, facilities manager,
and /or interior designer to
determine the ideal frame/
matte combinations for the
selected images to tell your
story. One of his philosophies to
is deliver something you will
always remember, on time and
on budget.
Choose from an archive of
nearly one million images, or
commission images especially
for your project, or a use a
combination of the two. Our
desire is to help you create a
space that fits your message,
your taste, and your budget.
We rely on six essential resources
as we work together to create
the ideal space for you.
1.LISTEN —
Understanding is the foundation
of every successful design
process. Our team listens to you
to be sure we develop ideas
that will fulfill your needs, satisfy
your sensibilities, and happen
within your budget. We will want
to learn about your business,
your customers, your employees
and the traffic patterns within
your facility. We need to
understand the opportunities
and constraints offered by your
project and the economics that
will drive our decision-making
process. What we create will
respond to everything we hear.
2.LEARN —
We have a lot to learn. We
collect information about your
company, the building, the
intent of the architect and
designer, and then imagine a
satisfying plan. We consult with
all parties involved to develop
solutions to any special
challenges. We test our ideas
with you to see how they look
and feel. Are we on the right
track? Do we need to explore
alternatives? Along the way, we
learn to think and work
together. We develop
relationships to sustain your
project and assure your
comfort.
3. BUDGET —
We produce a detailed floor
plan with each artwork located
on the map. Along with the
map, we include a spreadsheet
that lists location (by room and
wall) and the size and material
of every piece proposed within
the plan. We build budgets that
anticipate costs for every
aspect of your art project from
conception to installation on
your walls. This helps you budget
by project and also room-by-
room. We offer phased
installation of the artwork for
larger facilities, if you prefer.
Combined, these documents
give you a visual map and an
accurate budget from which to
make decisions and build
timelines.
4. DESIGN —
Once we have learned details
of your needs, our team can
focus on searching for or
creating custom artwork for
your walls. We make sure every
piece is appropriate for its
space and audience. Once we
have chosen our suggestions,
we visit your site and SHOW you
our plan. This has proven to be
the best way to provide you
with the ultimate confidence
that the final installation will be
exactly as envisioned.
5. PRODUCTION —
We find that careful planning
always pays off. Clear plans
allow us to proceed with
confidence to complete your
project. We use the same care
and consideration invested in
the design as when we create
your custom prints, frames,
mattes and identity plates for
each piece. All production
occurs within our 4,000sf facility
under the watchful eye of the
artist.
6. INSTALLATION ----
Once the framed pieces are
complete, we schedule a time
to install, including coordination
by the artist. Our team has the
experience and expertise to
hang as many as 150 pieces per
day, depending on the size and
layout of the facility. Prepare to
be amazed at the
transformation of your space!
How does the system work?
4. Nature
Hundreds of thousands of
nature images from the
central part of the United
States, as well as rain
forests, beaches,
mountains, and forests in
North, Central and South
America, as well as Europe
and Asia make up this
archive. Imagery was
created with healthcare
uses and healing in mind
to give patients hope,
while encouraging them to
focus on beauty rather
than their illness during
their stay.
Landscape
Landscape photography
captures a larger slice and
a broader perspective of
gorgeous global scenery.
Choose from Klemme’s
enormous collection and
showcase other parts of
the world--or scenes from
close to home--within the
walls of your establishment.
Vibrant, expansive scenes
contrast with the sterile
healthcare environment,
providing warmth and a
beautiful place for the
mind to wander and heal.
Local
Our experiences indicate
patient, staff and guests
react in a positive way
when familiar and
community images are
incorporated into the
decor of a medical facility.
Adding an element of
comfort, recognition and
peace through local
photography plays an
important role in every one
of our custom installations.
Featuring your community
is one of our specialties!
5. Framed Photography
We own and operate our own
8,000 square foot frame
production facility (see page 9).
This allows us to control the timing
of our projects as well as control
every single aspect of the quality
of our framed images. We use
only the finest quality moldings,
matte substrates, glass and
hanging hardware to insure that
every element of your finished
product will be beautiful and
maintenance-free for years to
come.
Metal Prints
When the situation calls for a
piece that is larger than our
standard frame size or for a more
modern look and feel, we have
the ability to print on metal plates
up to 4’X8’ and can then multiply
those large prints to make very
large wall impressions. (see
photos number one and six
above) This type of installation
also comes in very handy for
curved walls. Note that we use
metal standoffs to complete the
look and give you the ability to
change our the artwork easily.
Cloth Prints
We have recently begun using a
new process of printing on cloth.
These prints can be displayed in
extremely large sizes at extremely
great quality. The samples above
(numbers 7 and 9) show a
recently installed project in an
event center. Some of the pieces
here were used as large as
10‘X10’ and 5‘X15’. One wall
used nine 10‘X10’ images stacked
together to form a 10‘X90 wall of
imagery. We are very excited
about this new product and all
that it can do for our clients
facilities.

On The Boards
Things are busy! We are in the
process of working on three
hospital projects in Oklahoma
along with a vocational
technical school and two med-
surg clinics. Additionally, we
have been adding on to our
production facility and brining in
several new renters including a
graphic design firm, a video
production firm and a portrait
photographer. We are hoping to
add a copywriter soon.
Recent Work
Some of our most recent installations include
cancer institutes, hospitals, sports arenas,
historic ballrooms, a state capitol office and a
Lexus dealership.

We hear over and over again from the patients
how the artwork helps bring them solace and is an
integral part of their journey.
CEO, Cancer Treatment Center
If you are looking for beautiful images that capture
just the right significance, then Mike is the one for
your job.”
Administrator, Center For Business Development
Mike took the bull by the horns, head on, and gave
us a wonderful proposal that exceeded our high
expectations.
Farm Credit Bank
The addition of Mike Klemme photography in City
Hall brings a sophistication and visual
empowerment that exceeded our greatest
expectations. The impact on employee and
customer alike has been uplifting, lasting and
positive. We now project an image of
professionalism and progress that best defines our
city
Eric Benson, City Manager
Pleasant to work with; extremely helpful;
passionate—These are just a few of the things we
liked about Mike Klemme. We’ll be buyers of his
work for years to come.
CEO Exchange Bank
I appreciate the collaborative approach Mike took
in selecting not only the perfect images for the
facility, but their placements as well. Working with
him was a true partnership and we could not be
more pleased.
Center For Business Development
Mike has a great eye for detail. We were looking
for a particular image for our new banking facility
that his photography was able to capture
perfectly for us.
CEO Exchange Bank
We set out to build a world-class facility centered
around providing compassionate care.
Klemme/Art helped us accomplish our goals. Their
artwork and professional service exceeded our
expectations and serves as an important take
away with our patients.
Cancer Treatment Center
The project, it soon became evident, was a labor
of love for Mike Klemme, determined to ensure our
satisfaction with every picture. What a joy to see
the pictures come to life on our walls!
Farm Credit Bank
We value Mike's artistic talents and his friendship in
assisting this historic institution in
celebrating yesterday and today through his
experienced eagle eye and lens.
Thanks, Mike!"
Don Betz, Northeastern State University
Our facility took years of planning and a
community-wide effort to bring the dream to
reality. The addition of Mike Klemme’s artwork
exceeded even our own expectations.
Jim Strate, Center For Business Development
With just six weeks before we opened, we still
needed an artwork solution. Their turnkey
operation was just what we were looking for.
CEO, Cancer Treatment Center
The art he installed put the perfect 'finishing touch'
on our project. Mike is a pleasure to work with in all
regards. He is creative, professional and
enthusiastic.
Jim Strate, Autry Technology Center
Mike (and his team) hung every picture with their
high-tech leveling equipment. The Klemme Family
is an Oklahoma treasure, and we were so fortunate
he agreed to our project.
CEO, Farm Credit Bank
Our ultimate desire was to incorporate an
Oklahoma trademark in our design. The trademark
that we discovered was the photography of Mike
Klemme. Mike worked with us to find Oklahoma
landmarks and landscapes, and present them in a
way that was clean and simple in its design, yet
held true to our goal of reflecting Oklahoma’s
unique palette.
Mike and his team were a spectacular addition to
our dealership…fabulous quality photography,
framing and effortless installation.

What our customers are saying....
8. 8
Laser-perfect installation.
Once the pieces are laid out in
their place we use a number of
unique methods to insure that
each piece is placed exactly
where it belongs at a proper
height, distance from other
pieces and laser leveled, double
hung (and upon request)
security locked to make sure it
stays in it’s exact place with no
need for adjustment for many
years to come. Every piece, it’s
exact placement, the quality of
the print, the fit and finish of the
frame are all approved under
the watchful eye of the artist.
Production Facilities
We completely control every aspect of the
project including printing, matting, mounting,
assembly and completion in our own 8,000
square foot facility.
Establishment
In 2009, our team came to realize that as our production needs
continued to grow, it became more and more difficult to
coordinate our scheduling with outside vendors. We also found
that if mistakes were made in during the production process,
they were not discovered until the installation phase which
became frustrating, and totally unacceptable. We spent the
next year studying equipment, processes, and efficiencies
along with buying and remodeling our own building to house
our operation. We are now very happy with our working
operation and are comfortable with manufacturing as many as
1,000 pieces per month. We have a much more efficient
operation and can totally control each and every step of the
process from a timing as well as a quality standpoint.
Philosophy
In our quest to develop our in-house production facility, we
knew from the outset that we wanted to create a system
approach that would fit with every client we dealt with across a
wide variety of facilities and interior design criteria. We decided
on a system of five sizes of images. We lean heavy upon the
square format as this aspect ratio allows us to install long runs of
images in a defined wallspace employing odd numbers of
pieces. Whether it is a short wallspace that hosts three small
squares to a 35’ long wall that allows us to place seven large
squares, each given space can easily be “filled” by using odd
numbers of square images. So, we offer a SMALL SQUARE,
MEDIUM SQUARE and LARGE SQUARE size along with a large
horizontal size we call a SMALL PANORAMIC,and fun size we
call our EXTREME PANORAMIC, which is two feet wide and six
feet long for special places. We have found in our dozens of
installations that we can easily work with any situation by using
just these five sizes. This sets us up with the ability to move
pieces (as long as they are the same size) and exchange them
for pieces of like sizes over time. This allows our customers to
“freshen” their spaces and keep things new and lively. All of
these system elements also allow us to keep things simple and
efficient in the production phase as it allows us to buy only five
pre-cut mattes, glass and prints to fulfill our orders. Saving much
time, expense and avoiding costly and time-consuming
mistakes.
The big deal.
The really big deal is that no matter how large or small your
project is, you will be dealing with one person, the artist, Mike
Klemme from the initial call or email to the day every piece of
art is professionally nstalled in your facility. We feel that this fact,
is above all the biggest deal we offer. Any questions, problems,
changes, during the process, you deal with one person, the
creator and producer of the imagery. You be the guide, we do
the work, we want to be your partner in this venture.
