Andrew’s photography has been recognised at this year’s Corbis 2009 Creative Behind the Lens competition. The announcement was launched at an event at Museum of Contemporary Art in Sydney.

This image was taken on the train ride to Coney Island, New York during the winter season. It was a long unrewarding ride, where the carriages were barely full, snow on the beach dotted with plastic palms, closed down rides, clear mid blue skies and black puddles. The screwed up windows created vistas that were more like a Turner painting with their blurry glimpses and dreamy shapes.

Many publicity and events firms have brands that use stacked variations of the typeface Bodoni or Helveltica. Kate wanted something bold, classic and unique.

To start the process we asked Kate to write her name in her hand and she happened to have a style of writing that would translate wonderfully into a brand mark – like the hand of fashion designer Agnes B. We busied ourselves with graphically translating and interpreting her script into a simple mark. A website has been developed and stationery is to follow. Thanks again Kate for giving us your hand.

A comprehensive communication programme is on it’s way…

The Jardan furniture promotional campaign has made a departure from dressed interiors and far-a-way places. We have combined product images in a forest, kitchen kettle and wild bull montages. This double paged ad appeared in the latest copy of Habitus magazine.
