Surry Hills Community Center Signage

Firm
Surry Hills Community Centre
Blueprint Concepts  completed the contract for Probuild
Constructions at the Surry Hills Community Centre for the Sydney City Council.
The signage components set a new standard for
architectural, wayfinding and internal, illuminated signage and Blueprint were
proud to be a part of a City of Sydney imitative  the green building design which Lord Mayor
Clover Moore said that the build sets a benchmark in green building design and
will be a starting point for the development of a green rating system for
public buildings.
When the signage design first came across
Blueprints team they were taken back by the unique and innovative nature of the
project.  The architects FJMT were
adamant that the signage components were to replicate the artistic impressions they
had provided which at first seemed farfetched. 
Blueprint however took to the challenge and through the process of
quoting, shop drawings, numerous meetings and samples the project was delivered
within the tight lead time of three weeks.
 The signage components included:
Building Signage – 3D individual letters cut
from solid corian, 100mm high, 30mm thick at top and angled down to approx
2mm. direct adhered to the building façade using silicon.
Three Directory board/ way-finding panels, one
for each level all consisted of a different substrate.
Ground
level -Manufactured from 12mm thick Corian to form modules
With flat and angled panels, each panel has text
engraved from the face at 5mm depth with no paint fill so you can see the raw
material inside, backed onto an MDF panel with a split batten fixing for
removal of modules if required.
Level 1 - Fabricated from solid Rock Maple and stained
to form modules
With flat and angled panels, each panel has text
engraved from the face at 5mm depth with no paint fill so you can see the raw
material inside, backed onto an MDF panel with a split batten fixing for
removal of modules if required.
Level 2 - Fabricated from solid Rock Maple and 2pac
paint finished to form modules
With flat and angled panels, each panel has text
engraved from the face at 5mm depth with no paint fill so you can see the raw
material inside, backed onto an MDF panel with a split batten fixing for
removal of modules if required.
Statutory Signage – Stainless steel panel, engraved
and black ink-filled for tactile and Braille component to comply with BCA code.
Four custom built fabricated lightboxes suspended from
the ceiling at street level and custom made stainless steel fin supports, with
one lightboxes incorporating an LCD screen.
The overall look of this project was imperative
and Blueprint was able to maintain the quality to complete this innovative
building.
