GLASS PROJECT

Alkimos Station | Public Transport Infrastructure, Perth Metro Extension

ImagInk printed laminated glass by Cooling Brothers showcases Caroline Christie-Coxon’s artwork at Alkimos Station.

As part of METRONET’s Yanchep Rail Extension, Alkimos Station introduces a new cultural landmark to Perth’s northern corridor. Designed to reflect the area’s natural coastal landscape, the station integrates public art that celebrates the intersection of bushland and ocean.

Cooling Brothers worked with artist Caroline Christie-Coxon to bring her vision, Moon Over Ocean, Land Under Sun, to life through glass. The large-scale circular artworks are installed above the main staircases, providing a striking entry statement that links movement, light, and landscape.

Glass & Glazing Details

Cooling Brothers produced each artwork using ImagInk™ digital ceramic printing on 21.52mm toughened laminated glass, incorporating a structural SGP interlayer for optimal strength and safety. The 2.4-metre discs were digitally printed at up to 2880dpi resolution using UV-stable ceramic inks to ensure longevity, vibrancy, and precise colour reproduction.

All glass was locally manufactured at Cooling Brothers’ Perth facility, ensuring exacting quality control and on-time delivery. The result is a durable, visually striking installation that balances fine detail with the structural integrity required for a major public transport environment.
