GLASS PROJECT

Metronet – Beckenham Station | Public Art Glass Installations

ImagInk printed laminated glass panels by Jon Tarry, Yondee Shane Hensen, and James Morton, supplied for Beckenham Station as part of Metronet’s Victoria Park–Canning Level Crossing Removal project.

Beckenham Station is part of the METRONET Victoria Park–Canning Level Crossing Removal project, one of Perth’s largest rail transformations. The station features large-format printed glass installations integrating Djarlgarra, an artwork developed collaboratively by Jon Tarry, Yondee Shane Hensen, and James Morton, reflecting cultural pathways, movement, and connections to local Noongar Country.

Working closely with Artify, METRONET, the Public Transport Authority, and Vertex Facades, the artworks were adapted and mapped across multi-panel façades to align with the station’s elevations, solar orientation, and passenger movement flows. The result is a culturally expressive station environment where functional glazing and public art are seamlessly integrated into the built form.

Glass & Glazing Details

ImagInk printed laminated glass was selected for its long-term durability, UV stability, and high-fidelity reproduction of the artists’ original designs. Beckenham Station incorporates Low-E laminated glass to balance visual clarity, solar control, and structural performance across station concourses and facades. 

Cooling Brothers supplied printed laminated glass using ImagInk digital printing technology, ensuring the artworks retained fine linework, colour accuracy, and durability suitable for high-traffic transport infrastructure.
