Description

MYER, Australia's largest department store recently relocated their head office to the Melbourne Docklands. BVN Architects commissioned Büro North to design graphic embellishments and signage throughout the space.

After a thorough research phase, Büro North crafted designs which evolve throughout the nine floors; each floor is themed by a specific decade of twentieth century fashion, starting with the 1910's and working up through the building until the 1990's. Wall Graphics with relief routers and signage was developed using a feature material relevant to the decade, toilet pictograms were given the same decade relevant treatment creating a subtle and sophisticated interpretation of MYER's heritage.
