Bold colours and graphic elements that represent the sea and sky add personality and context to the interiors of this Sydney children's centre by Australian designer Danielle Brustman.
Brustman was responsible for the interior package of the Harbour Early Learning educational facility, which is situated in the city's Vaucluse suburb and aims to connect children with educators, nature and the broader community.
The brief for the project called for a high-quality facility arranged over three levels with a focus on design integrity and the well-being of both the children and staff.

Brustman employed oversized graphic elements throughout the spaces to help stimulate the imaginations of the children and create thematic experiences that respond to the building's harbourside setting. "I wanted the design to inspire delight and joy for the people occupying the spaces," the designer told Dezeen.
"I also wanted to create a healthy space using environmentally sustainable and quality materials that would stand the test of time and toddlers!"

Brustman worked closely with architects SJB and Supercontext, as well as with landscape designer Fiona Robbe and signage experts Citizen to deliver a range of bespoke indoor and outdoor play and learning spaces that reflect the client's educational philosophy.
