Palazzo Falson is the former home of Capt Olof Frederick Gollcher OBE (1889-1962). He was an artist, scholar and philanthropist, but also a discerning collector of objets d’art and historical objects.  Palazzo Falson was not only his home, but also a setting for his works of art and antiques. After Gollcher’s death in 1962, the house and its contents eventually passed into the hands of The Captain O. F. Gollcher OBE Art and Archaeological Foundation.

In 2001 Fondazzjoni Patrimonju Malti (Maltese Heritage Foundation) entered into a management agreement with the Gollcher Foundation, and proceeded to restore the palazzo and all its contents to their former glory, thus fulfilling Gollcher’s wish by bringing to the general public this unique and extraordinary treasure-trove.

The signage system developed for the heritage house museum is based on the Modulex family of signs. We used The Infinity Family, which offers unlimited design possibilities giving you almost complete freedom of expression. Through its ability to represent any shape, material, colour or image, Infinity can reflect the unique personality of any organisation or environment.

The room signs incorporated the sensor for the audio guide system, thus removing the need to locate them separately on the wall. The modern and sleek design of Infinity contrasts well with the surroundings and made a point of historical contrast to emphasize the intervention, putting the wayfinding on a functional level whilst promoting the visual identity and branding throughout the museum.
