Cobb and Co Museum

As part of the extension and refurbishment of this iconic museum, we were commissioned to plan and impliment the wayfinding signage. Due to time and budget restrictions the project was broken into two parts. The first priority was establishing the minimum level of signage needed to make the site function navigationally for the re-opening event. The second stage was a more iconic 'placemaking' level of signage. Several site inspections to the Toowoomba location were made to assess the site and requirements. A wayfinding plan was then developed that plotted the user flows both in vehicles on arrival and on foot to and through the venue.
It was also important that the signage not overpower the display graphics used in the exibits themselves. This was acheived through a use of desaturated colour keyed from parts of the architectural colour. Fabrication and installation was sourced from a Toowoomba manufacturer to support the local community.

Brookfield Show ­ Identity

Proposed brand identity for a regional fare about to celebrate its centennial year. The iconic Brookfield Hall featured prominently as a drawing in the previous logo and is a historic landmark of the site. A more robust graphic version was created to ensure maximum clarity when using lower fidelity print methods. The identity included the use of rustic whitewashed timbers as support imagery inspired by their impressive timber show ring.

Queensland Health Vaccination Campaign

The goal of this project was to promote the need for an upcoming vaccination program for high school children.
The concept of vaccination was illustrated by a fizzing barrier of rigid square elements against a sea of organic infection. The painterly approach and bold colours was aimed at being more appealing to the audience than the usual dry departmental material they were used to. It was also a lot of fun to make a mess with paint, hunting for suitable mixes and textures.
The package of materials had to work across a range of applications including information kits, Powerpoint presentations and notices.

Zoic Environmental

Zoic is an environmental consultancy that deals with the impact of development works on the earth. The symbol shows their focus on areas of impact below a 'ground surface line'.
A series of soil cross-section illustrations were created to provide a less clinical and tactile counterpoint to the trademark. These were applied throughout the office fit out as digital prints and frosting decals. Several of the original drawings of the soil cross-sections were provided to frame and hang in the foyer.
The identity extended into the design and build of the initial website and subsequent consultation on the site’s redevelopment.

Sumbion Park

Identity design for a proposed industrial estate that sat adjacent to a national park. The developers took pride in how the development and nature could coexist.
The proposed name is an extrapolation of the Latin word sumbios, meaning 'companion'. Also the source of the word symbiosis.
The logo was based on a stylised pinwheel. A man-made object perfectly formed to integrate with natural forces. Proposed ideas included the development of large scale pinwheels to be placed in the precinct as landmarks.

Resolute One

This start up security firm needed to appear established and capable to potential clients. In addition to the R1 mark, the angled 'blade' device was adopted for a sense of being dynamic and active in their duties.
The angles were extended to a supporting pattern that was developed for use on vehicles, presentations, websites and office fitouts.
