Signage and wayfinding strategy for the Kathleen Syme Library and Community Centre, integrating traditional landowner recognition and Victorian heritage with contemporary design elements and commissioned artwork by Wurundjeri artist Mandy Nicholson.

As an important hub for creative and community learning, the Kathleen Syme Library and Community Centre required a signage and wayfinding strategy that balanced the acknowledgement of traditional landowners and Victorian heritage with the needs of a contemporary, council-regulated space. Core to the storytelling and visual language was the circular patterns found within the commissioned artwork by Wurundjeri artist Mandy Nicholson, used in overlapped relief throughout the building and combined with elements of the City of Melbourne branding and Victorian architectural detailing. The colour palette and signage substrates were carefully considered to complement the interior finishes of the newly refurbished building.
