Bikedot
Jim Sutherland
Rob Duncan:

Bikedot is a new company that builds, sells and curates bikes, parts, and clothing. They have 30 years of experience with many of the world’s leading bike builders. They also have partnerships with premium bike manufacturers. Their new brand identity by Studio Sutherland cleverly builds a brand language out of tire treads and abstract patterns of the word 'Bike'. I hope they actually manufactured bike tires with these bespoke prints as well! Very fun, fresh idea and brand for a bike company.

D.R.A.W identity
Supple Studio
Paul Felton:

This new identity from Supple Studio is a masterclass in the art of combination. D.R.A.W is the result of the merger of two of the most respected recruitment agencies in the global art market.

The identity is a combination of a clever interlocking monogram, great copy and a beautiful series of three dimensional interpretations of the logo. The variety of materials used in the interlocking components suggest the scope of experience – from traditional to contemporary.

The Emperor’s Quest – Chinese Garden App
The Nest, a part of Frost*collective
Vince Frost:

The App created by The Nest, for Sydney Harbour Foreshore Authority takes families on a fascinating journey into the ancient world of Chinese Zodiac, whilst roaming the Chinese garden in Darling Harbour – Sydney.

Australian Design Radio
Christopher Doyle & Co.
Rob Duncan:

Really lovely identity for Australia Design Radio by Christopher Doyle & Co. The shape of Australia is represented by the visual language of graphic equalizers. When the radio station is on-air then the graphic equalizer moves, then returns to the shape of the continent when off-air. Simple, clever and beautifully crafted. Definitely want one of those T-shirts.

Campaign by NHS Blood and Transplant
Alex Swatridge:

This is the second time this campaign has been deployed but this time it’s on a global scale. Last year the campaign attracted more than 30,000 people to donate blood, watch this space…

Hepworth Wakefield x Alex Sickling
T shirt design
Alex Swatridge:

A charming collaboration between Hepworth Wakefield and Alex Sickling, where Alex has faithfully captured the simplicity and beauty of Barbara’s work in a modern way.

Laura Knox Identity
Ragged Edge
Paul Felton:

A nice new identity from Ragged Edge for drinks photographer Laura Knox with a clever, simple marque at it’s heart. Laura’s initials are cleverly abstracted to create the mirror and prism cross section of a SLR camera.

Silo Theatre 2016
Luke Robertson:

New Zealand’s Best Awards have announced their finalists for 2016. As always it’s an impressive showcase covering graphic, interactive, product and spatial design.

Alt Group’s identity for Silo Theatre takes center stage in their latest campaign.

Boxes in Boxes
Sutherl&
Rob Duncan:

Studio Sutherland has produced a beautiful set of interlocking boxes for Boss Box to demonstrate the range of packaging they have available. An extremely clever use of the children’s rhyme ‘There was an old lady’ playfully leads you through the collection. A clever idea, beautifully crafted. It doesn’t get much better than that!
