01. The challenge
Many Sign Types Across Varied Construction Conditions
Arcom delivered a full wayfinding and signage package for the redevelopment and expansion of the Northern Suburbs Recreation Hub. The scope included fabricated wayfinding, illuminated building signage, totems and pylons, hand-painted elements, custom acrylic and aluminium lettering, plus interior and exterior signage systems. Installation needed to work across timber, concrete, brickwork and architectural cladding, requiring multiple fixing methods and close coordination throughout the build.
Numerous interior and exterior sign types.
Timber, concrete, brickwork and architectural cladding substrates.
