Guiding the Way at Swinburne Open Day – Vibrant Corflute Wayfinding Signage by Evan Evans

When Swinburne University of Technology was preparing for their Open Day at the Hawthorn Campus, they needed bright, clear, and durable wayfinding signage to help thousands of visitors navigate the event with ease. Our team at Evan Evans was proud to deliver — on a tight timeline of just five days from print to installation.

A Fast-Turnaround Project, Perfectly Executed

Our Account Manager, Alexandra, coordinated every step of the project:

  • Design to print of high-quality corflute inserts

  • Supply of sturdy freestanding sign bases

  • Full delivery and on-site installation before the big day

The result? An impressive collection of vibrant directional signs that stood out across campus — colour-coded by zone to make finding your way effortless.

Durable & Vibrant Corflute Printing

The signage was printed on premium corflute signs — a lightweight yet tough material that’s perfect for outdoor events. The UV-stable inks ensured the colours stayed crisp and bright, even in unpredictable Melbourne weather.

For Swinburne’s event, the corflute inserts slotted into reusable stands, making them easy to update for future events.

Wayfinding That Works

Effective wayfinding is all about clarity, visibility, and placement. These wayfinding signs were positioned at key intersections across campus, ensuring visitors could move seamlessly between the Blue, Pink, Green, and Orange Zones.

The use of large, legible fonts and bold colour-blocked backgrounds made the information easy to absorb — even from a distance.

Why Corflute for Open Day Signage?

  • Lightweight & portable – easy to move during event setup

  • Weather-resistant – perfect for outdoor conditions

  • Cost-effective – ideal for short-term events with a big visual impact

  • Reusable stands – sustainable and adaptable for future use

Another Successful Campus Event

From the moment guests arrived, the wayfinding system gave Swinburne’s Open Day a professional, organised, and welcoming atmosphere. The vibrant corflute panels didn’t just guide people — they reinforced the Swinburne brand and enhanced the visitor experience.
