SABIUS ::

2000 and Tenaglia

2000 and Tenaglia Design Competition

In response to a Facebook design competition for album art. I made the design quite technical and focused on the audio feel and look. The DJ from recollection is Danny Tenaglia and the promotion was for his new album in 2010.

Addshine Cleaning

Add Shine Environmentally Friendly Cleaning

Based off a sunrise/sunset for the cross over of shine for sun and cleaning

Pull Up Banners

Adigitalife - Digital Life Pull up Banners

We created these for the trade shows that the client attends in order to attract buyers attention at minimal cost. Coupled with some loud subwoofers (some of his products) and some promotional girls the customer quite easily travels to anywhere in Australia with a little less than a few things more than some carry on luggage.

Affinity Lawyers

Law Firm using a wave effect and simple serif formal font. Corporate branding required an ambiguous but subtle logo with affinity representing a bond between the company and the clients.

Australian Government Directory A4 Flyer

AGD A4 Flyer

Developed in conjunction with the AGD designs for their large yearly book, this was a flyer to help sell advertising for the following year with the Australian Government Directory, or commonly known as 'The Purple Book'. The Style used with the images was similar to what we created throughout the books appearance.

All Turfs

Logo developed for the horse racing and breeding industry. Went for a regal look in order to present a high stakes breeder and trader of thoroughbred horses.

At the Wire

Another Horse Breeding / Thoroughbred trader. Modern approach to logo to differentiate from other local traders. Cropped Horse was for subtlety and to be used in various aspects of all print media.

Austmarine Banner

Austmarine Trade Show and Expo Banner

Another Pull up banner but this one was enormous. Standing around 2600mm high it took advantage of the convention centres that trade shows are normally held at. Quite large but also filled well with content as the client had a large array of great products in the seafood industry.

AGD

Australian Government Directory

Australian Government Directory wanted a new approach to the Purple Book listing all government departments. The use of Red and Purple on the cover was a discordance but proved effective. The a - @ was a flick of modern to an aged condependium.

Beowal T-Shirt

Beowal T-Shirt Print

A fun design aimed at a spin off from the animated motion picture Bouwulf. The Captain of the clients boat, resembled the rugged tough fantasy character. So we blended the design to reflect the tuna boats captain. The client then printed shirts and presented them as a mock uniform for their tuna fishing expeditions.

Bloom Beauty Boutique 3DL Brochure

Bloom 3DL Brochure

With adjustments and additions aside this brochure has remained somewhat static in it's appearance due to the designs bold and appealing look. With the colour scheme and light background images subtle it gives light to the content without deterring from the important information and style.

Boatneeds

I simple and clear marine logo. Nothing spectacular but needed a bit more body that the usual minimalist boating logo due to the demographic of shipwrights.

Bookkeepplus

Book Keep Plus

An ABC approach to a bookkeeping logo. Bright simple colours to represent friendly and approachable. Bold text to also communicate easily. The idea is to indicate that the company finds bookkeeping easy, to make your life easy etc.

Bydland Rentals

I never knew that Bydland was some sort of deer. I'm still not 100% sure. But this logo was a fresh approach to a very sterile designed market, property. Without the usual plain text corporate branding we went for a bright pink and a deer as the logo. Not a bad result I have to add.

BYO Jet DL Flyer

This flyer was created after the establishment of Travelscene Logan who's operators were partnered with BYO Jet. Receiving a great response, these flyers help establish BYO Jet and it's partners at Travelscene logan by mass distribution throughout the Logan Area.

Byron Bay Beaches

Beaches of Byron Bay T-Shirt Print

A stylish design on some of the Beaches in Byron Bay. With resembling symbolic images of the four most popular beaches in byron, this design was created in order to be printed onto T-Shirts and sold at Surf Central Byron Bay.

Byron Bay Golf Club PGA Business Card

PGA Business Card

The back of this card is it's real highlight, with Byron Bay you can sell it's beauty as it is free. With the Golf Club, it's rated as one of the best looking courses in Australia. So by digitally imposing the Byron Lighthouse on the 5th hole which faces East, I was able to create an idea of beautiful scenery to add to the Golf Pro's already saleable skills.

Cafe Liason

Cafe needed modernising but wanted to retain its aged customer base. Hi traffic area needed something simple and clear to catch the attention of passerby's.

Chapters and Cinos

Coffee / Book store wanted to integrate an old / new mix with an edge of coffee. Dense Metro area in need of an edgy approach to youth for the nearby university.

Chutney Mary

Before this restaurant franchised into Brisbane and Maloolabah, they requested a rebrand. I bubbled the logo and included a silhouette of Marilyn Monroe. The reason for this is when I asked what Chutney Mary meant, the owner simply replied - Marilyn Monroe, she is Chutney Mary. -

CleanSleep

Clean Sleep

This logo designed itself. Being able to do a clean bed was open field as some research into cleaning and bed brands brought nothing. Which allowed me to develop this unique logo which is simple yet highly effective.

CleanSleep

This website was developed in a super fast and simple framework to allow the administrator to add as many pages as they like as well as add all their own content. The ability of this framework was a SYSQ format allowing multiple pages from the drop downs and a blog/news function.

Coast to Country

Coast to Country Real Estate

Represented in various country and coast colours with the wave effect flowing against the layers of coast forming to country. Unique colour in order to differentiate from the other real estates.

CNT

Coastal Natural Therapies

A alternative medicine centre with various different professionals in the one building. Generic cool and calm feel with the blue to symbolise relaxations and calmness and the natural element as well as the coastal including water.

Coastal Natural Therapies 3DL Brochure

CNT 3DL Brochure

Acupuncture focused, this brochure was to bring a more welcoming and informative approach to acupuncture. Staying away from the 'Needles' approach in order to attract new clientele to try acupuncture, we highlighted nature more than anything else as an incentive with the Coastal Natural Therapies branding.

Coastal Natural Therapies DL Flyer and Gift Voucher

CNT DL Flyer & Voucher

Brand specific design with the blue, we concentrated on delivering something that would be interesting to entice readers to look into it more. The Gift Voucher especially, where as a gift it should entice people to try the acupuncture so the client can achieve repeat business. As the main marketing hurdle with acupuncture is fear and misinformation that it is painful. If you try it once, you get hooked... but not literally.

Coastal Waters

Coastal Waters Real Estate

5mins away from walking out of the office on Christmas holidays the phone rang and it was this client introducing themselves in need of marketing. This logo was very common around the North Gold Coast on signage and on the web. Great Customer, shows how you should always pick up the phone.

Real Estate Signs

Coastal Waters Real Estate Signs

Developed as a large version of the usual 900x600mm signage for real estate, we made these taller (1200x600mm) to give a difference. The branding we kept with a coastal theme with sand, water and the green of some palms to help capture the Gold Coast and also the feel of Coomera Waters where the clients operated.

Connect @ Chevron

Connect at Chevron

Real simple trendy cool internet cafe. Became a nice cropped window feature on the Gold Coast Highway. Was definitely eye-catching.

Coonawarra Premium Vineyards

Developed this logo for a new range of wines by Watson Wine Group. Was gold foiled onto a large range of wine bottles that was distributed around the world and predominantly through Asia.

CPV Book Cover

Coonawarra Premium Vineyards Book Cover

With a new range of wines being developed by Rex Watson, we created this cover to represent the cheaper level wines at a presentation. This was the lower reserve range of wines to present to new markets.

CPV Wine Labels 1 to 4

Coonawarra Premium Vineyards Wine labels 1 to 4

A lengthy development by myself and the marketers at Watson Wine Group into developing a wine label that would penetrate I high end market and reflect the range in a good light. This Process saw the development of some great labels that I had to show in this portfolio due to what I thought was very shelf worthy.

CPV Wine Labels 5 to 6

Coonawarra Premium Vineyards Wine Labels 5 to 6

Another couple of Wine Labels developed for Coonawarra Premium Vineyards. These we some of the later ones in response to more experimentation in developing new designs for the label. Both very shelf worthy. Great wine too from CPV.

Cranetech Industries

Simple 2D/3D Crane logo that was put to use immediately. Could barely finalise it before the client sent out to all his employees. It serves it's purpose but a early attempt at 2D/3D objects.

Daniel Rose Massage

Scanning Daniel's hands was easy and the whole logo fell into place nicely. Well balanced with the visual elements vs the text. Slight changes have been made over the years but has proved very successful branding.

Massage Banner

Daniel Rose Massage Banner

A banner that was created to harness as much attention as possible along Logan Road in Brisbane. This ran along the fence of the shop facing the traffic directly. Was such good positioning the customer noticed a large increase in inquiries.

X-Trail Design

Daniel Rose Massage X-Trail Design

Signage design for Daniel's Nissan X-Trail. This is a good example of the designs that Sabius can do for your vehicle. Any vehicle type, large or small we can develop the right branded design for your fleet or single car.

Days Rd. PoolShop

Days Road Pool Shop

This logo looked a million dollars when we constructed a sign made from cut 50mm Foam letters offset from a corrugated steel wall. Due to a change in council law the sign had to be removed only after 12months, but was incredibly effective visually. Simple yet effective.

Dentbiz

One of my first logos but still one of my favourites. Subtle design elements but still rivals a modern look today sporting only two colours.

Digital Life

Digital Life is another site utilising the SYSQ management system and is a full branded product website with over 100 products. Socially integrated and individualised SEO for each product, this layed the platform for the much larger distribution website for adigitalife.com.

Dishtec A4 Addressed Marketing Letterheads

Dishtec A4 Addressed

These mildly informative but highly decorative letterheads where individually addresses to customers to capture attention and creating a first point of call. This service based business required availability and first call preference for it to be successful. So we needed to create a design that would imprint in the customers minds on first impressions. The characters were consistent throughout the whole branding.

Dishtec A4 Triplicate Invoice Book

Dishtec A4 Invoice Book

A piece of marketing in itself as this was something that the customers could retain especially if the business was the second point of call. As a first call or second call this was another approach to alert people to the brand and hopefully maintain branding in a local business.

Dishtec DL $50 Refrigeration Voucher

Dishtec DL Fridge Voucher

These vouchers were printed onto a rigid 300gsm board with perforated edge for the $50 coupon. This element aided the enticement to try this service over other services.

Dishtec DL $50 Voucher

Dishtec DL Voucher

Used in conjunction with the A4 Addressed Letterheads in order to entice a sale with the $50 Coupon. Like the previous Fridge DL this was printed on heavy card stock and perforated along the $50 note to act as a tear off coupon. The characters symbolised the branding as the repair man is for the maintenance of general kitchens and the Polar Bear (previous) was to symbolise the refridgeration.

Dishtec DL Kitchen Appliances Flyer

Dishtec Kitchen DL

With the use of the characters we introduced another character cartoon with the chef presenting more information with it's direct relation to the kitchen. Not much else was needed as we wanted to indicate with the use of the new character a new service to already existing clients. The characters and their properties had now become the mascot for their services.

Dishtec iLoad Van

Dishtec iLoad Van Design

Another branded vehicle as part of a larger fleet. This vehicle was developed and designed by Sabius with the branding and message in mind.

Dog 'n' Pie

Dog n Pie

Shows what can be developed under pressure. This client was opening a inner city (Gold Coast) Store within 1 week. Therefore I had to develop this logo overnight to be used throughout packaging and signage. The result of some pencils, a scanner and modern technology I was able to create this fun logo. Turned out the client didn't pay his bills to not only us but all his tradesman. The business never opened it's doors... pity.

Donald C. Lewis

A stamp of authority for an 80yr old man. Donald Turned 80 in 2008 and I worked closely with his wife in developing an array of invitational and event media for his birthday. This logo was turned into a wax stamp and used on over 100 invites containing many different forms of printed media.

Doors Consulting

Very aligned to the branding, this website was given the element of a clear and concise look in order to reflect the important information neatly. In line with similar websites the picture of the client is show clearly in the header to identify as the networking knowledge base was the clients trade. Therefore recognition is important.

DVD Zone Poster

1 of quite a few DVD Zone posters that I had produced for the stalls you see where you rent the DVD for only a couple of dollars. Bright, but not too bright, was one of many dotted around shopping malls and plazas.

Elizabeth Jane

Elizabeth Jane Hair and Beauty

With honourable mention to Stephen Richards from stevesartworx.com for the sketching, This was a fantastic looking hair and beauty salon in Tanah Merah. The pattern we developed was used on a monochrome wallpaper throughout the shop.

Elizabeth Jane Signage

Elizabeth Jane Hair and Beauty Signage

Using the branding and also a wallpaper pattern that we worked on with the client we produced this signage to reflect the interior and the exterior of the beauticians salon. Striking with strong black and white contrasting colours the signage was a great revamp to a very tired and lacklustre shopping mall.

Elizabeth Jane Hair and Beauty Tent Business Card

Elizabeth Jane Tent Card

This card was created to double as a price list for the new business. With the establishment, we released what is called a tent card (ultimately a 3 fold Business Card) to deliver pricing with the details of the new business. Map, pricing and details are easily presented and it gives incredible interest into the card as it unfolds.

Entiva A5 Folded Brochure

Entive A5 Brochure

An A4 folded in half to be utilised as well as cost efficient. These were developed for use within caravan expo's across Australia, so they had to be manageable as well as deliver a message well. We captured the character of the hardware with the design in it's ability to display the information clearly and concisely, as well as giving it a branding boost that wasn't present previous to this.

Flower en Counter

Representing a modern flower arrangement at a regal look, this logo was developed in order to cater for the corporate flower market in branching out from the retail passerby's. Beautiful flowers by an amazing Florist, also partnered with Paradise Point Florists and Main Beach Florists on the Gold Coast.

Flynnsane

What more can I say? Modelled off the Red-Heads logo of matches as this Disc Jockey has an amazing crop of red locks which is his signature scalp behind the decks. A Flynnsane logo for an insane DJ.

Fresh Properties

Simple and straight forward in communicating the brand and with a use of a fresh bright orange to capture attention in a busy environment in Sydney.

Antenna Packaging

FTE Maximal Hydra45 Antenna Packaging Design

Sabius designed this new packaging design in response to a very plain and boring design from the manufacturer. We wanted something dynamic to distinguish itself on the shelves of trade warehouses. Packaging design for trade is usually quite dull and we wanted to make this design pop. Which succeeded.

Antenna Box Design

FTE Maximal HDTV Antenna Box Design

Developed as a new product for the shelves of Australia with the previous imported boxes being a plain white box. Similar to the other antenna I had done from FTE Maximal, they needed something that was going to stand out on trade warehouse shelves. This was the answer, something bold, making a statement in the 3rd tier of marketing.

Fuscia

Fuscia Creative Makeup Design

This logo was developed with the intention of having the logo silver foiled onto a card. With the development of multi-coloured foiling we were able to create this logo for the use on a business card only to represent a real striking and 'bling' appeal which what the makeup artist signature.

FX ProArt

This logo was designed to go the full length of a racing car (two actually) and their trailer. This brand went round the track amongst a plethora of other vehicles and would often take first place. Won the award for best presented vehicle in it's division 3yrs running.

Giant Mouse

Although not entirely representing the company and it's product, this was another pencil and scanner development that eventuated into a fun and quirky logo. The 'Giant Mouse' was to refer to the sole operator appearing bigger than they actually were.

Gold Coast Ceilings

With works in tiling and other surface finishes, this logo was developed in the aspect of the swirls of plastering and also the tiling and tape. Colours were discordant but worked nicely.

GCGFC HTM Advert

Gold Coast Game Fish Club HTM Advert

An advertisement that went in the Blue Water Magazine to promote the Gold Coast Game Fish Club's Heavy Tackle Masters. I began steering away from the focus on the fishing and tried to shift the focus onto the Gold Coast as a Holiday Destination for the Fisherman. The Gold Coast is a beacon of Tourism so most of the hard work of promoting the Gold Coast was done, it was just piggy backing onto the Gold Coast name which was easy. The event was a large success.

GCGFC LTM Advert

Gold Coast Game Fish Club LTM Advert

Another advert for the Gold Coast Game Fish Club, but this was prior to the introduction of a Gold Coast focused campaign. In this advertisement we reflected the fishing element and the previous fish caught during the 2011 competition. This was focused on drawing in families too with a focus on the Junior division.

Gold Coast Game Fish Club Heavy Tacke Masters 2011 A3 Folded Brochure

GFCGC HTM 2011 Brochure

It has a lot of abbreviations, but also has a lot of information. The battle with the design of these 'brochures' is the shear amount of information that needs to be presented clearly. Arranging the text to read consistently and also being able to capture the attention of the potential entrants with the first few paragraphs was the key. So by using the front to best display the character of the competition and highlighting the important information on the inside we delivered an entry form / brochure.

Gold Coast Game Fish Club Heavy Tacke Masters 2012 A3 Folded Brochure

GFCGC HTM 2012 Brochure

Similar to the previous year but revamped to attract more attention from the cover alone. As mention previous, large amounts of information needed to be included in order to distribute as a flyer and double as an entry form. This time we coupled it with advertising in the Blue Water magazine to help branding and awareness which seemed to have helps as the competition which I have been assisting with for a few years now is growing each time.

Gold Coast Game Fish Club Light Tacke Masters 2012 A3 Folded Brochure

GFCGC LTM 2012 Brochure

The Light Tackle Masters we utilised the similar layout as most of the competition falls along the same guides as well as operated by the same people. In this we highlighted the potential catchings available and the competition that presents itself and for the entrants to challenge this competition. This is why we included the previous years winning catch used with light tackle.

Luxury Cruisers

Gold Coast Luxury Cruisers

Catering for the mid to high wealth demographic we aimed at developing something that had a regal and corporate professional look.

Tourist Map

Gold Coast Tourist Map

A fun and quirky logo for a tourist map. This logo represented a large map which was designed to represent the Golg coast in a Comical form with all the main tourist events and places highlighted on the map. The logo reflected the fun animation style that was developed for the map.

Gordoni's DL Weeknight Flyer Specials

Gordoni's DL Flyers

In need to develop more customers this flyer was developed to attract attention and also present a new chef. While trying to stimulate a dead market was tough during the height of the GFC it raised as much interest as it could within a usually thriving and wealthy area of the Gold Coast. Competition and the incapability to hold down a good chef ultimately led to this restaurants demise.

Gordoni's Poster

This was one of a series of posters located outside of the restaurant that is located on the busy Esplenade of Paradise Point. These posters were great at communicating to the customer base for retention of customers.

Greater Pacific Agencies A4 Booklight Flyers

GPA A4 Flyers

These we the development from a once stale marketing attempt in a wholesale industry. By marketing Business to Business in the book industry this importer needed somewhat of an edge, so we decided to approach this with a technical outlook to the products that they imported. This involved trying to sell the buyers more that what the product really was. To the effect that the product line is growing with the initial 3 booklights that we assisted with the design.

GUV

GUV Party

A fun party logo for a large event for the Griffith University Village.

Haynes Acupuncture

Modelled off a Chinese symbol with an added wave to give it a more harmonious flow to the alternative medicine method that acupuncture entails.

Acupuncture Advertisement

Haynes Acupuncture Advertisement Poster

This summer specials advertisement was to penetrate the market and convert more people to Acupuncture. An alternative natural therapy it isn't widely considered by a lot of people so the whole idea was to approach the potential youth with the knowledge of feeling great naturally.

Hirst Project Consulting

This logo was based on the design and construction style by using lines and block text. The various colours in the segment is to present a shading effect and add dimension to the logo.

Hirst Project Consulting

This website was developed in a super fast and simple framework to allow the administrator to add as many pages as they like as well as add all their own content. The ability of this framework was a SYSQ format allowing multiple pages from the drop downs and a blog/news function.

Horizon Motor Yachts Australia A3 Folded Brochure

Horizon Yachts A4 Brochure

To represent multi-million dollar boats the client needed something that represented wealth and stature. The recent re-branding for the products meant the designs needed to reflect the new branding style and not lose any potential market. We assisted in developing several of these brochures for the incredible boats that they imported. We felt we captured the essence of the boats grandeur within the brochures.

Horizon Motor Yachts Australia Presentation Folder

Horizon Yachts Folder

A folder that is used to present purchasing information and other important material to potential buyers. This Folder needed to reflect the quality of the boats in a regal sense, so we utilised the branding colours and created something that the sales staff could use to help sell these incredibly luxurious boats.

Impact Signs

The previous logo was unchanged for 40yrs and needed a huge revamp. I kept the same font, angled it and added a paint splash for the history of the company involving sign writing the old paint brush style. Developing signage for a large portion of the Gold Coast, this logo proved really effective on vehicles as quite a large splash.

Instant Interiors

Instant Interiors Gold Coast

Designed for a silver / chrome brochure and other print media. The flowing floral effect was used as a backdrop and subtle compliment on images and other media.

Instant Interiors 3DL Brochure

A property staging business that was looking for something to help present their work. Using the silver/grey we highlighted the images in which were supplied in low quality so we could push them out for more detail. So we introduced some written content and simplified the design for the designers modern approach to their property staging skills.

Intouch Bodyworx

Revamped from a previous shy soft coloured logo, we used more earthy colours to add a natural feel and used a solid font to give clarity in it's use.

Intouch Bodyworx Business Card

Somewhat a simple design but I still fancy this card as one of my favourites. The shapes that crop the images are indicative of the branding and the stones on the back assisted in the earthy feel of the brand in which the masseuse wanted. Simple yet mood capturing in ways that surprised myself with this design.

ITS

ITS Transport

A transport and logistics company that requested a clear and concise logo to represent their fleet and company in easy to read yet modern look. The Blue colouring was an existing element to their previous branding.

Jumping Castle Design

Joey's Jumping Castle Design

This design was focused on the Australiana approach for a jumping castle. With all other jumping castles available are now plastered with superheroes or other popular cartoons. So the approach was to create something that the children can relate to with also being original.

Just Diesel

A mechanics logo with a little bit of a difference. I tried to go a bit more 3 dimensional with the text and backdropping a subtle spanner to indicate symbolically what the business was focused on.

K & K Photography

K and K Photography

A black and white logo to reflect the photography industry and to compliment it's surrounds when overlaid onto photo's as a signature. Used on a black website and complimented nicely.

KBLea

A clothing brand label that was created with several supporting logo's and variations for screenprinted T-Shirts. The Flowing butterfly design and purples / pinks was for the feminine market.

Kirk Wilson Electrical

Another honourable mention to Stephen Richards from stevesartworx.com for the profile sketch. Supporting the electrical logo to give it character and recognition in the market. This evolved into vehicle graphics that turned out quite nicely.

Koten DL Flyer

Doubling as a brochure with the ability to fold it in half as well as deliver as a flyer. This was a unique flyer in the sense that the information available was lengthy for such a small print area, but enabled us to deliver in a flyer / brochure format which the customer liked.

Lucy & Peter

Lucy and Peter

Wedding invitations done in pure monochrome on recycled papers. The logo when printed in the solid black picked some of the paper off and gave it a soft imperfect effect and an almost hand developed look. Supported the style of the wedding and inspired the wedding cake design.

Main Beach Florist Brochures

A 200x200mm brochure that is somewhat a different size but one that demands a bit of attention because of this. Aimed at the corporate market in decorating businesses with flowers, this brochure is informative and also obscure in a intriguing way simply because of the shape and size. The square flowers images on the front compliment the overall shape also.

Manhire & Associates

Manhire and Associates

A Finance logo that was developed to give a corporate and professional edge to a small business. The colours were used in reflection of the characters inside the business who were very focused and professional. Reflects the personality without losing the professional edge.

Manhire Finance A4 Information Brochures

Manhire A4 Brochures

A large series of brochures and flyers with information indicative to the services offered by the client. This full series of informative brochures in a range of different A4's was essential to look professional in the initial start up of the business for the client. This professional array of brochures helped legitimise a small operation to appear larger than they actually were.

Racing Helmet

Mark Webber Racing Helmet

Developed for the Mark Webber Design a Helmet Competition. Tried an Aboriginal inspired design in order to attempt to get Aboriginal art into a global stage. Used white and blues to also reflect a discordance with usual aboriginal art colours but to also give it a unique look. Wish me luck!

Miketei

Mikatei

Wasn't sure into much to what it means as the customer said it was just a name. But the logo is to combine Japan with Australia in a comical fun way to represent a Japanese food stall catering to Australians.

Mokacinos Cafe

A much needed rebrand to a Varsity Lakes Cafe. Mokacino's Cafe needed a sort of signature to give ownership to 'Mokacino' but also create a stylish edge to the cafe.

Oceanmax Marine Offshore A3 Folded Brochure

Oceanmax Marine A3 Folded

In development of their new boat, Oceanmax required a branded brochure to display their new models to the public for the local Sanctuary Cove boat show. With shining success and heavy interest developed from the show, these brochures proved an important part in the early life of this incredible boat brand. Big things to come for Oceanmax Marine in the future.

Ocean Max Marine

Previously presented as a scan of a brochure inserted into a html page, this site required a highly presentable site for a range of boats that had been developing some interest around them. It required good presentation with as well as being easy to read.

111 Facebook Banner

One1one Facebook Banner

Adhering to the lines of Facebook's banner rules we created this slogan mixed with the branding '1' that is used in the logo. This was a great inclusion by utilising the brand's style and part of the logo by not actually using the logo which in the Facebook pages rules you are not permitted too. Success in my eyes, the client agrees.

One 1 One

One 1 One Marketing

Developed with a marketer starting out and breaking a new scene, we needed something fresh and a completely unique colour palette. We when for some discordance in the colour scheme without being too forward thinking. We wanted edge and an unageing logo which I think we nailed well.

Paradise Beauty

Redesigned from a much simpler format the client requested a decorative addition and manipulation of her current logo. We adjusted the type and created a border frame around the design to give it an older style hand held mirror frame, as beauty is the perception of ones self or others.

Paradise Beauty 3DL Brochure

Developed with the new branding, new pricing was also required and an eye catching design. With these regal colours not my usual first selection for a beauty salon, I wanted to divert from white and gold which was oddly enough used by their competition only a stones through away from this store. So I utilised the black and the gold predominantly to reinforce the colours as their brand specific. The result turned out better than expected and with the lithograph bird pattern within added even more spice to the design.

Paradise Point Florist

Monochrome and simple design to symbolise a flower wreath and to compliment the flowers in the shop.

PC Genie

Loved doing this logo as it was a fun quirky design that was eye capturing and worked well. Client was extremely happy with the design after previously having the design done from other designers which was nothing of what he requested. We nailed it first go.

Pete and Lucy Wedding Invites with Envelopes

Pete and Lucy Wedding Invites

This initial concept led to the design of the wedding cake and the theme of the wedding. A clear and simple black and white wedding theme with the font a flowing and solid impression and the flowers a shapely design that was predominant on the wedding cake. The Invites were printed on soft recycled paper and were identical to the engagement party invites that were handed out the year previous. Custom cut envelopes and all hand folded materials.

Physio and Fitness 3DL Brochure

Physio and Fitness Brochure

This brochure was developed from a compiled series of word documents, scribbles and vocal ideas and compiled together in conjunction with another similar brochure to promote the gym and the physio available within this business. Brand specific and decorated to indicate that, this independent physio and gym has expanded incredibly with the mining boom and has had these brochures distributed well around the Gladstone area.

Fitcamp Poster

Physio and Fitness Fitcamp Poster

With the need to promote the new bootcamp classes for ladies only, dubbed 'fitcamps', this poster was developed along with other's in other areas using the same design.

Pilates Poster

Physio and Fitness Pilates Poster

Promoting Pilates within the Gym environment for morning beach sessions. Using the silhouette of the practitioner with the sunset sky captures the communication almost immediately without the need for reading what the advert is about.

Girls Promo Poster

Physio and Fitness Referral Poster for Females

Aimed at females by showing a fit (but not over the top) image of a girl with a healthy and attractive body, in which the desired market want's to acheive.

Guys Referral Poster

Physio and Fitness Referral Poster Male

This was another poster developed to capture the male market in gyms. Displaying a well defined male body to be the aspiration of most males at the gymnasium. The approach was to give the desired result, the product that will assist, the way to get this product is to make the referals.

Pizza al Volo 2DL Pizza Menu

Pizza al Volo Menu

This menu was derived for the local pizza shops interior design. Italian focused with the red and green, we wanted to reflect what the pizza store displayed in store to the local community through a mass distribution in the area. The response initialised the business onto the Paradise Point area, and the majority of customers hung this menu which had a magnet on it's back on their fridge.

Pizza Poster

Pizza al Volo Poster Design

A boutique pizza place in the Esplenade at Paradise Point on the Gold Coast. Great Pizza by the way. But we approached this design to reflect the shop decor and also harness the italian idea of pizza with the red white and green.

PressQ

PressQ printers was a fresh new approach to printing were we tried to go completely cloud with printing. Ended up in becoming successful in other areas especially in lenitcular printing. This logo worked well with the two colours and became common signature on over 250,000 3D postcards sold over 12 months. Unfortunately due to equipment failure the business depleted.

Pride Casual Furniture

Leisure Pride Casual Outdoor Furniture was a site who's predecessor was a carbon copy (code, images, the lot) of a franchised and purchased business. As the franchise diverted into different avenues the websites differed slightly but were intrinsically the same. So the product was eventuated to go back to scratch and create a new website from foundations to give it a different look and a different coding. The reason for this is that SEO requires that any copying of content from other websites ultimately punishes you. Because the predecessor was a copy of the original franchisor, Google punished the site. Now, this website is completely re-written and contains unique codes and products giving it essential SEO to compete with it's rivals.

Pure Colour Lounge 3DL Pricelist

Pure Colour Lounge 3DL

Derived from a simpler design, we vamped up the brochure injecting some life into it by grabbing photos from their website and inserting them into the floating internal page of the brochure. Because of the low quality of the images, we collaged them in a way that could boost the image of the hair salon with great effect.

Pure Colour Lounge B5 Pricelist Flyers

Pure Colour Lounge B5

A pricelist with a obscure size. Using B5, which is an American sizing, we designed this brochure to be a bit more edgy than 'just a pricelist'. With the streaks donw the side to represent the colouring technique and then the imagery of modern hair framed within the streaks, we gave the artwork some life that was more than 'just a pricelist'.

Queensland Pest Control

Striking and bold logo communicating the brand quite well. Yellow being of action and the state infiltrating the text gave it an edge. But the ant in it's position and it's curled nature was to present the pest killing aspect of it all.

RAS Trading

Regal strong and clear design to imply a heirachy in importation and distribution. As an American importer I thought it represented his character quite well.

Ree and Johns Wedding Invitations with Envelope

Ree and Johns Wedding Invites

Low key and simplified to deliver the mildly decorative but bold appearance was to symbolise the wedding of this couple. The wedding was to be low key so the invites had to reflect this but also look appealing. We printed them on a matt stock and laminated them and scored the centre. The envelopes were also hand made.

Sheharazade Belly Dancing Business Card

Sheharazade Business Card

Printed with foiling over the garments and the Sheharazade text, the card had a regal vigour about it and reflected the glamour of the belly dancing show. With the dancer performing in these glamorous costumes we tried to capture it with the foiling with great success.

Slim Me Poster

Slim Me Poster Design

Designed from a napkin scribble (quite common) with the inclusion of the personal touch of a image. It's a great example of how an image can compliment the design from something that was practically nothing.

South East Floors

Revamp of an old tired logo. This logo became prominent in the Oxenford area on the Gold Coast with large signage and a fleet of 6 vehicles all sporting this logo. The showroom factory utilised the state in a 3 dimensional look with a massive 20x4m banner skin.

Southeast Floors A4 Product Flyers

Southeast Floors A4 Flyers

This company needed a swatch book or flyer to help sell their product to their customers. With a huge range to select from, we captured the best of the bunch and highlighted these swatches within flyers to indicate the outcome of this stylish product. This was part of a much larger series that applied for every type of product they provided with a large array of colours and floor types.

Spring Business Card

Sticking to the brand but simplifying it predeceasing card that had an enormous amount of finishings that where highly costly. But for effect they didnt justify the cost. We gladly redesigned the card for them to utilise much more cost effective production and also made the design clearer and significant to the brand. That in which the previous card lacked. This shows that you don't need to spend a huge amount of money to achieve and great result.

SS Constructions

Originally Shane Summers Constructions which we shortened to SSConstructions for the client in order for a shorter and less individual brand for a large developer.

Stanton Multihulls

This logo communicates the brand of trade quite simple and effectively. Nothing too special about it but not much you could fault either.

Steve's Artworx

The previous version of this site was one of the first website's I had created with a prototype SYSQ system. In desperate need of a revamp due to some ageing code and SEO changes, we revamped the look of the site, implemented the latest version of SYSQ, and layed a great SEO platform. Nice bold and simple for ease of viewing on mobile devices as well as your screen.

STS Piping

Branded multilayer Stainless Steel piping systems imported into Australia. The blue was to indicate liquid and the general layout was indicative of the piping ability.

Summit Fitness & Health

Summit was the first website to use the SYSQ management system and the client applauded the ease of usability compared to Wordpress on his past site. The Timetable is completely manageable by the administrator and the site is socially integrated with Facebook.

Supa-IGA Gift Certificate

In light of developing something that was soft and appealing to it's shoppers Supa-IGA wanted to give a Gift Certificate that looked as good as for as much as it was worth. We worked on this to develop something that was appealing to all age groups and something that could be delivered with welcoming acceptance for the look and feel of the artwork.

Surf Central

Surf Central Byron Bay

Circular logo at request of the client. The surfer silhouette was an essential addition even though the text indicates surf we wanted to present a more image focused design that would communicate the brand.

Tara Ed Recruitment DL FLyer

Tara Ed DL Flyer

Modelled off the poster design that we did for Tara Ed, this flyer was more informative and action orientated. Distributed throughout the Universities to poach recruiters we needed to capture empathy and also opportunity in which I believe we achieved.

Tara Ed Poster

Tara Ed Recruitment Poster

A charity with a worthy cause needed support in designing a recruitment poster aimed at education students but to also highlight the brand for exposure and recognition. For this I combined the main image with the orange overlay to highlight branding and the Indian School students that the charity aims to help.

Target Electrical Mini DL Magnet

Target Electrical Magnet

Magnet calendar as a mailout. These magnets were mass produced in order to be distributed as a mailout. The cost of this was extraordinary due to the weight of the magnets as magnet material is five times the weight of a standard leaflet stock. Although expensive it is incredibly effective. To consider that a large majority of these magnets have found their way into households and now potentially viewed everyday by the residents. It's advertising that is consistent after it's initial cost requiring no ongoing fees and how often do you go to your fridge?

Teriyaki Mate

Japan meets Australia. The red dot from the japanese flag against an either contrasted black or white back drop text or vice versa. Branded for a restaurant which harness the logo quite well and looked exceptional amongst the napkins and other restaurant crockery.

The Building Feller

Block masculine text and imagery to indicate the builders stature and strength in his trade.

The Digital Picture

Reflects all elements of this Business' trade within the logo's dimmed text. The business name had to reflect exactly what this niche tradesperson constructs as well as be multicoloured and work on various app programs.

Audio Visual Banner

The Digital Picture Banner

Displayed inside audio visual expo's and other events, this banner was to reflect the branding of the client and their services.

The Tattoo Shop

Loved doing this logo with Tattoo artists. It is interesting receiving two different approaches to form a unique outcome. The Koi fish are disguised within the text but reflect a tattoo design quite well.

The Digital Picture

This was a break format site that we experimented with several different layouts to best represent a home theatre environment. Dark and supported light with a central viewing area. The logo was suppressed in the background and we also utilised the font from a SONOS programming in which the client utilises in their productions. Complete news/blog feature for easy updating as well as social integration.

Tiger Earthmoving

Sketch and scan then colour and shade with the computer. This logo had to represent a strong and deadly character in representing the bobcats that the customer owned.

Tiny's Budget Landscape Supplies DL Flyer and Magnet

Tiny's DL Flyer and Magnet

This flyer and magnet combination was a combined mailout with the magnet and DL combined together on distribution. Like the magnet previous to this artwork the distribution cost was great but the rewards and marketing potential for this is extraordinary.

Football Jersey

Troopers Touch Football Jersey

The touch football team that we participate in and contribute too. With a new group of players we needed some jerseys to bind a new team together with, the colour scheme was maroon and blue to reflect the origin in the NRL. This combined with some spikes and a hexagonal scale we came up with this.

Vision Employment

The camera lens or microscope symbology as well as the colouring took this logo into a minimalist approach.

Watsons Bay Label 2

Watsons Bay Contemporary Wine Label

In light of the other wine label, the impressionistic one, this was another label developed with a contemporary approach to suit a more clean and simple shelf appearance. The aim was to highlight the contrast and the city skyline with the sun in the background to signify the sunset. Developed from my own sketch of Watson's Bay, which was a series of sketches and selected the few types that we liked.

Watsons Bay Label 1

Watsons Bay Impressionistic Wine Label

Developed as an impressionistic sketch with the beige and peach to represent the sunset on Watson's Bay in Sydney. Rex Watson, the winemaker, had a close relation to the Bay and loved the sunset. So to reflect this I was presented with a series of photo's to develop a sketch from for originality. This was the Impressionistic version, by this I mean I drew it quite fast.

Racing Shirt Design

Wilson Security Racing Crew Shirt and Polar Fleece

In reflection of the previous comments on the Wilson Security Hats, this merchandising is part of a larger array of merchandising developed for the Wilson Securities racing team when they first began. With Hybrid Designs still evolving from these originals that I created, the merchandising was seen on v8 racing all throughout the year of 2008.

Racing Cap Design

Wilson Security Racing Team Cap

I was approached by a gentleman many years ago by happenstance of being in the right place at the right time. It began with myself developing artworks for Glenfords Racing Team which evolved into the new sponsor of Wilson Security. From what was originally just basic pit crew shirts turned into a whole batch of merchandising for the team. This was the cap design I developed for them in which is still hybrid designed from this original concept.

X Factor

X Factor Cleaning

Hardcore and edgy as the X would entail. Went for the inspiration from the ever popular extreme games and although does not represent cleaning, it does represent their speed and agility with the trade.

Zireas Designs

This was a logo designed for a couple who where beginning a new venture into home wares and textiles. I'd developed a unique Kamon (Japanese Flower Emblem) Which has a Bell Flower (beauty), Passion Flower (nobility), and then Swords (that weird three pronged white thing on top of them both to represent masculinity). They were aiming at the gay market so I thought the masculinity in a contemporary floral suited quite nicely, especially that they were going into the textile market.

Zireas Designs Business Card

This card was created to compliment the textile products it represented. We used brand colour schemes and delivered a simplified yet depth focused result with the shading. Nice card we thought, so we thought we'd share it with you.
