Duration

Restoration and fabrication of iconic heritage platform signage for a major Central Station redevelopment, recreating raised lettering to period-accurate detail.

Scope: Heritage platform signs, station redevelopment

The challenge

  • Iconic platform signage needed to be reinstated as part of a major station redevelopment.
  • Original signs were damaged or incomplete, with raised lettering missing in places.
  • The work had to be period-accurate in letterform, proportion, and finish to read as authentic.

Our approach

  1. 1We researched and documented the original signage, letterforms, and finishes.
  2. 2Surviving signage was restored, and missing elements were fabricated with raised lettering to match the period.
  3. 3Colour and finish were matched precisely for an authentic, durable result.
  4. 4Signage was built and finished to perform in a busy public environment while honouring the heritage design.

Materials and techniques

  • Period-matched timber and signage materials
  • Fabricated raised lettering
