Project Mount Buffalo National Park Visitor Communication and Interpretation Project Client Parks Victoria Site Mt Buffalo National Park, Victoria Collaborators Graphic design - Nuttshell Graphics Sign manufacture - Execon Pty Ltd Description This project involved developing a hierarchy to organize information and interpretation throughout the park and then developing a range of signage - motivational, informational and interpretive.   The panels at the entrance to the park identify the four major visitor precincts and motivate and encourage visitors to venture beyond the known.     The largest entrance panel is an important part of the visitor experience and orientation and has a multitude of purposes. It welcomes visitors to the park, briefly outlines the significant features, identifies the four visitor precincts, delivers important park messages and identifies visitor facilities and services.   These two panels are in a classic national park information shelter and provide more site specific information. The four major walking options are clearly indicated on the panel above complete with basic walk information. The panel below was designed to motivate visitors to explore the precinct and provides basic information on services and facilities.     This is only one of a series of 9 panels used to interpret the Running Jump Creek, catchment and the Dicksons Falls. The panels explain plant and animal adaptations to a non-specialist audience using a fun analogy, hierarchical interpretation, explanatory illustrations and linking text. The public has responded very positively to this interpretation.
