The Port Botany Expansion Project by Sydney Ports Corporation is a major expansion of its container port facilities at Port Botany to cater for long-term trade growth. Deuce undertook an extensive interpretive and wayfinding signage program that detailed the site’s trade history, natural fauna and flora attractions and a comprehensive wayfinding system.

The design program includes more than thirty-five brightly coloured vitreous enamel signs featuring laser cut lettering, custom designed structures and a beautiful series of local bird illustrations. The expansion is one of the largest port projects to be undertaken in Australia in the last 30 years.

The second stage of the Port Botany bird estuary features beautiful one-of-a-kind bird identification panels for the estuary area. Our work featured 30+ highly detailed vitreous enamel bespoke bird illustrations and large laser cut panels depicting bird life.
