QLD Government Department of Environment and Science Excellence Awards 2023

24.11.23

The Department of Environment and Science of the Queensland Government is dedicated to being a driving force and collaborative partner in the management, protection, and restoration of Queensland’s natural environment and heritage. Their commitment extends to ensuring the well-being and prosperity of both current and future generations.

Our longstanding client reached out to us with a special request—to design and produce awards for the 2023 Excellence Awards. Given the department’s unwavering focus on environmental conservation, they sought an option that aligned with their values—a sustainable solution that was 100% recycled.

In response, our team embarked on a mission to find materials that embodied both the essence of sustainability and the spirit of the awards. After careful consideration, we identified reclaimed timber from an old farm post as the ideal medium. Infused with love and meticulous attention to detail, our team transformed this weathered wood into the very foundation of the awards.

Each award bears the distinctive marks and traces of its former life, with the presence of old nails adding a touch of character and individuality to every block. To preserve the integrity of the 100% recycled nature, our team used laser etching techniques to adorn the blocks with carefully chosen text and unique illustrations provided by their talented internal creative team.

We loved creating these unique and sustainable awards for the Queensland Government. Contact us today to get started on your next custom project.
