BRIEF
Luxurious high-rise condominium with 369 units over 26 levels, full amenities for residents including swimming pool, sauna, gymnasium, games room & 4 levels of parking; located alongside Myanmar’s first Somerset Service Residence on Kabar Aye Pagoda Road, Bahan township, an upscale area in the city of Yangon. To provide functional wayfinding solutions through signage that exude elegance & opulence. |
CHALLENGE
Being co-located with a separate & established serviced residence tower, any wayfinding & design solution will have to complement each brand’s separate identity & direction. |
SOLUTION
The design proposal was heavily influenced by the interior design of the condominium, such that all signage was to complement the design of the interior. To further add nuance to the design solution, patterns & motifs which reflected Myanmar’s cultural identity were introduced & customized icons were developed. Material chosen included stainless steel 316 with PVD finish for exterior signs, resulting not only in better looking signs, but also increased durability. |
