'Design by Tokyo' is the agency that designed the signs for this East Sydney childcare center and community hub.
The center is designed as state of the art and is built for parents who live and work in the suburbs of Sydney. The signage itself is highly playful in its design, functioning as a unique contrast to the modern and simple designs around it. It was inspired by children's building blocks and as a result, is made up largely of wood and reveals colorful geometric shapes that are not over-the-top in their design. The signs are attached to the walls via magnets, making them easily movable if necessary.
On top of their simple and playful aesthetic, the signs' portable design makes them effective inspiration for childcare centers that may not have large budgets but that are looking for high-impact and affordable enhancements.
