Westpac - Custom Laser Cut & Foiled Christmas Cards

Founded in 1817, Westpac is Australia’s first and oldest bank, marking this year as their 201st year in operation, and as of this year has 14 million customers across Australia and New Zealand. This year we were lucky enough to be contacted by the team at Westpac to create their yearly Christmas cards.

Settling on 3 different designs for the cards, the cards featured red and gold hot foiling with a combination of laser cut filigree components on a beautiful linen textured card stock. We had a fantastic time working with the team at Westpac and were thrilled with the outcome of this job.

It’s never too early to be thinking about Christmas or any special event you are planning, if you have an idea for a special invitation or card, contact us today to get the ball rolling!

 

 

Custom Timber Wedding Invites

Apart from our usual corporate projects we also love to create personalised items for small local clients like these custom wedding invitations.

Our clients were inspired by nature and wanted a rustic feel to be reflected in their invitations for their upcoming wedding. They also wanted to create something that would be a beautiful reminder on the fridge rather than the traditional paper invite, after all most invites are sent out months before the event.

For the main invitation, a locally sourced timber was printed and laser cut with an intricate floral filigree. A printed card with information on the event was placed on top of the invite to soften the overall look; these pieces were then bound together with a length of twine, to really tie back into the rustic vibe.

A beautiful outcome for a beautiful event, the clients were very happy with the unique outcome! If you would like some custom designed invitations for your special event, contact us today and see how we help!

 

 

The Mad Hueys - Emergency Shoey Custom POS Box

Working again with the crew at The Mad Hueys, we were asked to work with them to create another point-of-sale item to accompany their previous display stands.

This display stand was made to look like an emergency fire box that will be fitted out to hold a beer and a shoe for an emergency shoey, an Australian ritual often undertaken as a bringer of good fortune.

The boxes consist of intricate joinery and completed with a satin emergency red paint finish. The boxes are double sided so they can be placed either on a shelf or in the middle of the room and be viewed from many angles, rather then your average point of sale strut cards which are only viewed from the front. The box features an acrylic panel at the front with printed graphics and text. The lids can be slid up and down so the graphics on the internal of the box and the shoe/can of beer can be interchanged with the seasons. The box also displays large logos on the sides so that even from the sides, the customers will know the Mad Hueys are up to something.

Raw Espresso - Custom Wooden Bike Decal

Raw Espresso is a cafe located on the Gold Coast who serves up a great cup of coffee along with tasty fresh meals and juices. Working with them before on various custom projects, Raw Espresso turned to us again to create a custom wooden bike detail for their custom built bike! Isn’t it a beauty!

Using a stained timber, the shape laser cut and etched with retro typography. The finished look came out amazing in the darker timber and it stands out great against the bright blue bike!

If this has sparked an idea in your head and would love us to help you out with your custom project, contact us today to see how we can create something unique for you!

 

Coopers Brewery - A-Frame Chalkboard Display

Having previously worked with Coopers on their beer tap decals, we welcomed the opportunity to work with them again and incorporated their iconic branding into this A-Frame design!

These A-Frames sit on top of the bar and contain a chalkboard so that specials and custom messaging can be displayed. The timber is an aged rustic locally sourced timber, which creates a surrounding boarder for the chalkboard. We laser etched the coopers tagline into the base of the frame which creates a tactile element for the customers to engage with. Finally, we finished the piece off with the Coopers timber decal at the top. The pop of colour against the dark weathered timber really draws in attention and sells this design.

Blue Heron Motel - Custom Wooden Key Tags

Located in Mermaid Beach on the Gold Coast, the Blue Heron Motel offers a great stay for all kinds of travellers being so central to the many tourist attractions the Gold Coast has to offer.

To give life to the newly renovated motel, the owners contacted us to create some key tags that had a bit more of a modern tropical feel then your average plastic room key. Using an Australian native timber we printed the logo and other information on one side then flipped them over to etch in the room numbers and palm leaf pattern.

We love the simple but effective outcome of these, it will hopefully be something their guests will admire! If you are looking at having some custom yet functional promotional products made for your local business, contact us today to see how we can help out!

 

Alder Custom Timber Honour Board

Alder Constructions is a construction company specialising in complex projects who have branched themselves into a wide range of disciplines including civil, building and infrastructure construction.

As a way to show their gratitude to their long-time employees, Alder contacted us with a request to create an honour board with the names of their employees who had dedicated 10+ years of service to the company.

This plaque uses a combination of acrylic and custom joinery features, as well as the removable and updatable panel displaying the employees names. It was important in this piece to create a plate that could be removed and updated as it needed to be accessible for future names to be added as well as easy for the client to re-install the plate.

Have some long-time employees who deserve recognition? Contact us today to see how we can make a custom honour board for your company.

 

The Mad Hueys Custom POS Display

Based in Burleigh Heads on the Gold Coast QLD, The Mad Hueys is a fishing crew, who love to fish, surf and drink beer and with their name they have created an apparel brand that is sold globally.

To create some point-of-sale display stands, the team at The Mad Hueys contacted us to help out. They needed something that would be placed on a table and can be easily moved, assembled and dismantled. So we created a system of acrylic inserts, the middles with a different image on both sides and the front and back pieces to have the logos. These would then insert into wooden bases for an easy install!

If your brand is looking into having some custom made POS created, contact us today to see how we can create something special for your company!

River City - Custom Laser Cut Christmas Cards

Well it is that time of year again and what better way to celebrate than producing some laser cut Christmas cards.

This is a previous job we did for River City Solutions in Brisbane. We designed, Printed and Laser cut these custom cards for them to send out to their clients. The layering turned out great and the intricate detail that we can get from our laser is always amazing.

The guys were stoked with the final product and so were we!

Burleigh Pro - Custom Timber & Acrylic Awards

Over a period of 4 days, some of the worlds best surfers complete against local talent at Burleigh Heads on the Gold Coast.

For the 2018 Burleigh Pro surf event we worked with the team at Surfing Queensland again to create some more unique trophies that embody the Burleigh headland vibe. The Burleigh headland is famous for its Norfolk pines and great views of the surf from up on the hill so it wasn’t even a question that these elements were to be included in the awards.

With a combination of timber that grows native to south-east Queensland and laser cut acrylic, the pieces were layered on top of each other and designed in a way where the award portrayed a 3D landscape. We were stoked with how these awards polished up and we look forward to working with Surfing QLD in the future.

If you have a special event coming up and would like your recipients to receive a memorable piece of art, contact us today to see how we can make something truly unique for your company!
