- Discipline
- Industry
The Harry Perkins Institute of Medical Research is Western Australia’s premier adult medical research institute, investigating the genetic and environmental causes of a range of diseases.
Formed in 1998 with a vision of fostering a high-level of collaboration between the State’s medical researchers, their team has made, and continues to make, a number of internationally-important discoveries with the potential to deliver better health to the global community.
The wayfinding system is created to be an extension of the building’s architecture. The elegant sculptural forms are inspired by the material palette and the hexagonal matrix detail used throughout the building as well as paying a subtle homage to the DNA helix.
The simplicity of their form and typography combine to create a legible, intuitive and architecturally harmonious solution.
