1800 Hofstede

Hofstede

This comprehensive wayfinding program formed part of a substantial redevelopment of the Monash University Faculty of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical’s Parkville site.

Existing signage was audited and documented resulting in a rationalised inventory of sign types. A simple line graphic is the key unifying element in a wide-ranging program characterised by function and neutrality. Working within the constraints of Monash University’s restrictive brand guidelines, type and colour are deployed with dramatic scale and emphasis at times to break up the monotony of the interiors.
