The Old Courthouse Museum – Perth’s oldest building – tells the story of WA’s history through the eyes of legal practice. The Judge’s Chambers exhibition forms stage 1 of a 3-stage museum refit, and focuses on the foundation of the state’s judicial system.
We designed interpretive panels, bespoke furniture, showcase displays, and AV and lighting technology to present the museum’s extensive collection of artefacts in an engaging and thought-provoking way.
