Royal Children’s Hospital, Melbourne
Design-led wayfinding delivered with precision, performance, and care. The Relationship Braille Tactile Signs Aust. was engaged by Diadem to manufacture the Braille Tactile Signs for the new Royal Children’s Hospital Melbourne. The project required close collaboration to support a highly considered design outcome, with a strong focus on consistency, colour integration, and delivery within a complex and tight construction programme. The Project The Royal Children’s Hospital is one of Australia’s leading paediatric healthcare facilities, designed to create a welcoming and engaging environment for patients, families, and staff. Following more than seven years of planning and construction, the new hospital was officially opened in 2011, representing a significant investment in healthcare infrastructure and patient experience. The signage formed part of this broader vision, contributing to wayfinding that is both functional and aligned with the architectural design. The hospital was officially opened by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, marking its significance as a landmark project where only the highest standards of quality, design, and performance were expected. The Outcome Braille Tactile Signs Aust. manufactured signage across the facility, supporting a consistent and cohesive approach throughout.The outcome included: • Custom Colour Combinations Aligned to Each Level of the Hospital• Consistent Sign Formats and Layouts Throughout• Integration with the Broader Interior Design Palette• Reliable Delivery Within a Demanding Project Timeline The signage supports clear navigation while contributing to the overall environment and experience of the hospital. The Value Over Time Healthcare environments require signage that performs consistently over time. CSE_Tech (Continuous Surface Encapsulated) was selected for its suitability in high-use environments, supporting: • Hygienic, Easy-to-Clean Surfaces• Durability Under Frequent Cleaning and Use• Long-Term Performance Without Deterioration By maintaining consistency in core tooling and applying controlled variations through colour, the project achieved both efficiency in production and flexibility in design. Project Highlights • Major Healthcare Facility with Complex Wayfinding Requirements• Design-Led Signage with Level-Specific Colour Systems• Consistent Manufacturing Approach Across Large Volumes• Use of CSE_Tech for Hygiene and Durability• Coordinated Delivery Within a Tight and Evolving Programme Client Experience “BTS Aust. was engaged by Diadem to manufacture the Braille signage for the New Royal Children's Hospital project in Melbourne. The scope included custom designs and a series of PMS colour combinations for each level. A late schedule change from the client compounded an already tight programme. The high level of communication from the beginning and the understanding of the design process ensured me that Claudia and the team at BTS Aust. would go to any length to deliver the order to specification and on programme. The signs were delivered on time, looked fantastic and the client was very happy. I look forward to working with BTS Aust. in the future and would recommend them to anyone who expects the best in service and quality.” - Diadem Continuing Partnership This project reflects Braille Tactile Signs Aust.’s ability to support large-scale, design-led environments where performance, compliance, and consistency are critical.
