Once again we teamed up with the crew at Brisbane Marketing to develop and produce custom event collateral for the 2015 Wonder of Christmas event in Southbank, Brisbane. This included custom printed and laser cut timber signage, printed timber fascias for the market stalls, custom made timber cube seating, freestanding printed timber directional signage, printed timber A-frames, custom freestanding lightboxes in the shape of christmas trees and of course the life size timber deer made his triumphant return this year. It is such an exciting and fun project to be involved in.
This custom award for Peabody Energy was a bit of an interesting and unique job. We had to incorporate a piece of actual coal into the custom timber award. So after cutting the coal down and sanding it into shape, we were able to get it into the form you see below. Then we glued it into a routered down piece of Australian Black Butt with a laser etch on the face and top of award.
Custom timber menus and laser etched chopping boards for Cliffords Grill and Lounge. The custom menus were made from a hardwood timber with a black leather spine. We kept the Cliffords branding going by laser etching their serving boards.
Some custom timber trophies we did for the Queensland Championship Circuit. Made from a solid hardwood woth some laser cut and printed timber overlays.
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!
We created a couple of these custom timber signs for the guys over at BlueSky to spice up their reception areas around Australia. By using their corporate colours and a complementing tone of wood, we made a simple and effective wall piece, to catch the eyes of clients on their way in. BlueSky – Timber Sign
This was a trophy created for CBC Fremantle for a perpetual surfing award, using custom cut layers and custom colours to create this stylised wave piece.
Here’s a custom timber reserved sign we made for LT Hospitality in New York City. Made from solid Australian Native joinery timber. Sometimes simplicity is key, and we think this turned out quite nicely. The timber has a beautiful sheen that catches the light at different angles and matched with the matte black text creates an subtle but stylish table piece. LT Hospitality – Timber Reserved Plaques
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.
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!

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.
