The guys over at Granny Smith Festival wanted us to create something special for them, so we came up with these layered optical custom trophies which have great visual impact. With the sharp vibrant colours mixed with brass and timber we couldn’t be happier with the end result!

This was one of the first jobs we did with our new router. We were approached by the team at The Really Quite Good Ideas Company to come up with a powder coated aluminium cover for a project they were putting together for Yellow Cover. The cover had to be quite industrial looking due to the nature of the business. The most challenging part of the whole job was coming up with a suitable binding system which was both practical and looked great.

We just recently completed some Custom Joinery & Environmental Graphic Fitout for DLX Agencies, which put our design and joinery skills at work. Who are the agency for Hurley, Nike and Converse here on the Gold Coast. As you can see the space looks modern, simple and crisp for these premium brands. The client brief was to supply a look that would compliment the premium brands.
The job entailed 4 solid waterfall edged free standing showroom tables, 2 ‘a-frame’ counter levered solid timber shoe shelving displays. And 1 giant boardroom table (which had to be lifted in by 6 people due to the weight of the hardwood!) all made with A-grade Australian “Blackbutt” hardwood. All has been finished with natural furniture wax for a great natural wood tone and a crisp matte black paint for a subtle accent.

The guys at The Robina Group keep us busy with great custom work that they use to spice up their showrooms, and with a new development up an running they needed some more cool items. A custom cut and printed A frame for outside the showroom, and some custom door hangers to let people know that they’re open for business! A custom TV surround for around the touch screen inside the showroom. Some more samples boards which slide into drawers underneath a joined timber framed corkboard map to identify which areas have been sold. This all looks fantastic all together in their environment and carries the branding through the whole showroom. So let us know if you need custom showroom environmental graphics and you’ll get a great finish to spice up your area.

Here’s some cool laser etched custom cocktail taps we created for Bacardi. With a custom shape blackboard attached on the back so the different cocktails can be fully updated, it creates a cool ‘vintage’ but stylish style. The Palm tree handle were constructed to fit onto already existing bar taps to be used as the handles for the bar tenders. Made in house from Tasmanian Oak, and custom illustration done by our creative director. These are a part of an Australian wide promotion, so you can check them out at a bar/hotel near you!

Once again we have worked with the good people of Brisbane Marketing and Sharon Penny Designs to create some signage and installation pieces for the Regional Flavours Food Festival at Southbank, Brisbane. This year we have reconditioned a large freestanding wall for the Hunting Club tent. We refurbished and constructed the new archway and designed a custom wallpaper design mixed with asian inspired imagery and a concrete background to compliment the Asian Fusion menu. As well as the usual freestanding printed timber signs, beer samplers paddles, printed timber cube seating and custom timber menus. All in all another great event we were glad to be a part of.

We were aproached by the Campbelltown Shire Council to create this custom timber commemorative awards. The awards consisted of Australian Blackbutt, Tasmanian Oak, Red Cedar, Iron bark (Which was from a tree that was felled from the local Army barracks) and Pine which was a direct decendant of the Lone Pine from Gallipoli, sourced from the Inverell RSL. It was a great project to be invovled in.

We were approached by the QLD Premier’s Department to create an award for the QLD 2015 Premier’s Reconciliation Award. This award was to go to organisations helping to shape and improve the future of Queensland’s reconciliation. The ceremony was so they have the opportunity to receive their rightful acknowledgement through these prestigious awards. The Queensland Theatre Company (QTC) and Sibelco Australia have taken out the 2015 Premier’s Reconciliation Award for an all-company Indigenous Program led from the stage by the critically-acclaimed production, Black Diggers. We constructed this great stylised, layered and unique award to compliment the distinguished and important event.

The guys over at Endeavour beer asked us to create some custom point of sale for the beer taps at pubs and bars. So we came up with these Timber Beer Tap Decals which were laser etched and UV printed assembled pieces. Looking a bit industrial, but still clean and tidy; they’re surely bound to grab your attention at the bar.

We love doing different, interesting pieces. So when this job walked in we jumped at the opportunity! The guys over at the HAAN Medical Centre needed something for their lobby that included their branding, corporate colours and also to be quite unique, so we created this string wall art for them to hang. This 2-pack high gloss finish with the geometric shapes created by the string give a playful but clean look which has a great impact upon entering the centre. We painstakingly hammered each nail and threaded each string to make this look perfect for the guys over at HAAN.

We were engaged by the guys over at Press Garage for special project for Eat Southbank . The idea was to send food/drink sample boxes to people of the food industry & media world. This was partnered with an invitation to a special event held by Eat Southbank for their launch. The items produced for the project included custom made, joinery finished ‘wine box’ style pine boxes. These were partitioned to fit perfectly within the outer box to fit assorted food, drinks and nibbles. Each item had its own pine UV printed and lasercut label. Each Lid was laser-cut and etched, and each compartment filled with wood wool for a nice rustic look. The invitations were laser etched and cut for the recipients of the boxes. We are very happy with the result we achieved and look forward to doing more of this kind of work!
