read moreIs bad branding damaging your business credibility?
Yesterday I was part of something new and exciting. The Successful Business Matters expo which was held at Woodlands Golf Club in Mordialloc, Melbourne. Myself and 20 other exhibitors set up shop at 1pm and then looked after our stands until 8:30pm to offer information and ideas to participants during the day. I was also one of 9 presenters talking on my area of expertise: Graphic Design. If you were lucky enough to catch my seminar ”Is bad branding damaging your business credibility?” at 4:45pm you would have seen some really great examples of business branding and some really...

Along with every other Graphic Designer in Melbourne, I attended the first ever Supergraph this weekend at the Royal Exhibition Building in Carlton. I love Melbourne! Always something creative to see and do. I was really excited to see what the day would be all about and the types of people that it would attract. On first impressions there was not a great vibe in the hall. The absence of music made for a pretty stark atmosphere, particularly around the bar section where I felt I had to whisper to order a cider like I was in a library....

I love Melbourne, and the latest exhibition Melbourne Now reinforces all the reasons I love this city. An exhibition that celebrates Melbourne’s past, present and future. I attended both sites of the exhibition and started at the NGV on St Kilda Rd. You know, the one with the water on the windows.? My favourite. I had initially gone to see the Art Deco clothing exhibit but when I walked in the gallery doors I was coaxed by the public iPads and table tennis table at the entry to Melbourne Now. I had to investigate further! I was lead through...
read moreA Vision of Christmas
Whether we like it or not Christmas is looming. In all its red-and-green, sparkle-laden, fear-inducing, festive glory, it is coming, and coming fast. I swear the department stores bring out their Christmas merchandise earlier every year, and every year I am shocked into Christmas-fear. Don’t get me wrong, I love the holiday season, but there is always so much ‘stuff’ to get through before you can just sit back, relax, and enjoy the celebrations. One highlight of such celebrations is definitely the various carol functions. The music is always beautifully tear-jerking (especially those mass choirs of angelic-faced children) and...
