How Custom Signage Transformed realestate.com.au’s Melbourne Office
Explore signage solutions for offices, workplaces and branded environments:
An office can be more than a place to work—it can be an extension of the brand. At realestate.com.au’s Melbourne headquarters, Evan Evans brought a coordinated workplace concept to life through custom lift decals, stair signage and transparent window graphics.
Managed by Evan Evans Account Manager Dan Butler, the project brought three different signage applications together across high-visibility interior surfaces. Evan Evans handled the printing, delivery and installation, helping the finished graphics work as one cohesive system throughout the workplace.
For businesses planning a similar environment, this project demonstrates how corporate signage for offices and branded workplaces can turn existing architectural surfaces into clear, purposeful brand touchpoints.
A workplace campaign built into the space
The supplied “Next Gen Now” artwork was carried across lift doors, stair risers and large glazed areas. Although each surface required a different material and production approach, the consistent colours and campaign language allowed the installation to read as one connected workplace experience.
Instead of relying on a single sign, the project used the movement of people through the office. Staff and visitors encounter the graphics while waiting for a lift, walking upstairs and spending time near the glazed workplace area. This creates repeated brand visibility without adding freestanding structures to the space.
Easy Dot lift decals
Custom-applied graphics turned functional lift doors into bold branded focal points.
3mm Forex stair signage
Printed rigid panels carried the visual identity across individual stair risers.
Clear SAV graphics
CMYK plus white printing created visible graphics while retaining the character of the glazed space.
Lift and stair graphics that reward attention
Lift doors are natural pause points within an office. Applying custom Easy Dot graphics allowed the two lift designs to present distinct messages while remaining part of the same visual campaign. Businesses considering similar applications can explore the broader custom decals collection for window, wall and smooth-surface branding options.
The central staircase created a different opportunity. Printed 3mm Forex panels were installed across the risers, allowing the design and copy to unfold as people approached the stairs. Forex is lightweight and rigid, with a smooth print surface suited to crisp indoor display graphics. More material information is available on the Forex signage product page.
Clear window graphics with colour, contrast and transparency
Large areas of glass can provide valuable space for workplace branding, but the graphics need to work with the architecture rather than simply cover it. For this installation, Evan Evans produced clear self-adhesive vinyl using CMYK plus white printing.
The CMYK layer carries the colour, while the white print helps selected artwork remain visible against the transparent material. The result is a strong visual treatment that still allows the surrounding glazed environment to remain part of the overall design. Businesses planning graphics for glass doors, partitions or windows can explore Evan Evans’ custom window decal options.
One team from print through to installation
A multi-surface signage project requires more than placing the same artwork on different products. Each location has its own dimensions, sightlines and material requirements. The lift doors, individual stair risers and wide glazed panels all needed to be considered as separate production applications while maintaining a consistent final presentation.
With Dan Butler managing the project, Evan Evans coordinated printing, delivery and installation. Keeping these stages connected helps reduce handover gaps and gives businesses one team to speak with as a project moves from approved artwork to the finished workplace.
What corporate teams can take from this project
- Plan around the surface. Lift doors, stairs and glass each require a signage material suited to their shape and function.
- Build one visual system. Consistent artwork can connect different parts of an office even when several products are used.
- Use existing movement. High-traffic workplace surfaces can carry brand messages without introducing extra display structures.
- Consider installation early. Measurements, alignment and access requirements influence how the finished signage presents on site.
This project is a strong example of how custom office signage in Melbourne can support a coordinated workplace identity. From decals and rigid signs to window graphics, the broader Evan Evans signage collection provides a starting point for businesses comparing suitable formats.

Corporate office signage FAQs
What types of signage can be used to brand a corporate office?
Corporate offices can use window graphics, wall decals, lift-door graphics, rigid signs, reception signage, wayfinding and branded displays. The right mix depends on the available surfaces, viewing distance, message duration and installation requirements. Explore Evan Evans’ corporate signage solutions for more workplace ideas.
Can lift doors be used for custom branded decals?
Yes, lift doors can become high-visibility branded surfaces when the decal, artwork and installation method are suitable for the door system and surrounding environment. The surface and operational clearances should be reviewed before production.
Why was 3mm Forex used for the stair signage?
Forex is a lightweight rigid PVC board with a smooth surface for detailed printing. The 3mm panels allowed the supplied graphics to be produced as individual rigid pieces for installation across the stair risers.
What does CMYK plus white printing achieve on clear SAV?
CMYK produces the colour elements of the artwork, while white printing can add opacity and contrast behind selected areas. This helps graphics remain visible on clear self-adhesive vinyl while preserving transparency elsewhere in the design.
Can Evan Evans print, deliver and install an office signage project?
Yes. Evan Evans printed, delivered and installed the signage for this realestate.com.au project. For a tailored recommendation, contact the Evan Evans team with details about your surfaces, sizes, artwork, location and timing.
