Integrated with Intent
Working in close coordination with interior designers, Cygnus developed a graphic system that complements the architectural palette while reinforcing the function of shared spaces. Applications were placed to guide flow, highlight key zones, and maintain openness. Rather than overlaying design onto the space, each graphic was treated as an extension of the environment, supporting both practical needs and visual continuity. Feature elements help define hubs and collaborative zones while allowing the overall space to remain a calm and enjoyable space to work.
Graphic Layering
Abstracted shapes and layered forms were applied to wall surfaces and glazing to bring a sense of rhythm and familiarity to the space. Wall graphics reflect the colour and tone of the furnishings, creating moments of energy that align with shared-use areas. Glazing films provide necessary privacy without compromising light or visibility, supporting a balance of focus and openness. The graphic program plays a quiet but deliberate role in making the space intuitive, functional, and aligned with the goals of a modern public service workplace.
Form & Function
Room IDs and sign panels were designed to integrate directly with the surrounding materials and finishes. Circular forms were selected to echo the curved geometry found in the environmental graphics, creating a sense of visual continuity across surfaces. Typography, scale, and placement were chosen to maintain a clean, modern feel while ensuring legibility and consistency. The signage works quietly in the background, providing clarity without distraction and reinforcing the architectural character of the space.
