Royal North Shore Hospital Sydney

Solving the Royal North Shore Hospital's wayfinding was not just about designing ‘better’ signs. Legibility, colour and graphics may be the necessary physical tools for a sign but it was the comprehension of their meaning that was important and how this was organised into a cognitive pattern of sign types. Clarity and directness of the wayfinding system is enhanced and enlivened by the use of colour utilised at each lift core as a wayfinding tool to correspond with vertical circulation. Visitors felt comfortable in their spatial environment, and were easily oriented and logically informed.

Ephemeral Eternal

Eternity can be waiting to be discovered in an ephemeral moment. This show is about that Poetic Discovery. Seventeen oversized posters of Typography, Photography, and Illustrations bring the viewers through such a story regarding a lost bottle cap on a quiet snowy night.

Then each poster is designed as a treasure hunt itself, with a small design element hidden within its expanse, also just waiting to be discovered.

Tin Man Filling Station

Logo, brand and merchandise are all inspired by the uniqueness of the region. A first of its kind in the region, Tin Man only sells regional (Texas) beer. Growlers designs change often to add value to the brand. Inspired by the uniqueness of the region and the industrial interior design, each detail of the brand was thought out.
