Coopers Brewery - A-Frame Chalkboard Display

Posted: 17th January 2019

Posted in: Laser Etching & Router Cutting, Detailed Joinery & Graphic Fit-Outs, Point Of Sale & Marketing Material

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

Posted: 15th January 2019

Posted in: Design & Illustration, Laser Etching & Router Cutting

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

Posted: 9th January 2019

Posted in: Laser Etching & Router Cutting, Detailed Joinery & Graphic Fit-Outs

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.

Posted in: Design & Illustration, Point Of Sale & Marketing Material

Hurley is an internationally recognised surf apparel brand who aim to create products to enhance and make your experience in the water fun. Endorsed by bands such as Blink-182 and All Time Low the brand also sponsors many events and athletes around the world.

For Hurley’s latest point-of-sale marketing campaign we created a simple design to be rolled out in stores across Australia. The signs are a combination of black board, laser cut white acrylic letters and black metal stands. These stands are viewed from both sides and really encompass the sleek and clean essence of the Hurley brand. The best thing about this signage is that the main “Hurley” part of the signage can be updated with special sale offers, different logos or even photos depending on the season or style the brand wants to roll out. The options are endless, which makes these signs a long-term signage solution.

If you have an upcoming store opening or would just like to update some point-of-sale marketing displays in your store, contact us today to see how we can create some custom designs for you!

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!

Burleigh Pro - Custom Timber & Acrylic Awards

Posted: 5th December 2018

Posted in: Laser Etching & Router Cutting, Custom Awards & Event Collateral

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!

Every year, Red Bull hosts and sponsors world-class athletes and events all over the world. On the 10^th of November in Sydney, Australia, Red Bull challenged people to design, build and then pilot their own creations off a 6 meter high flight deck in the event they call Flugtag (‘flying day’ in German).

We were approached by the guys at Havas Sports & Entertainment Australia to complete this job for the team at Red Bull and were challenged to create something inspired by the companies’ signature style. The quintessential red bull wings were a must for this design, we also featured the cartoon style drawings that are also sported across Red Bull’s marketing campaigns.

Combining timber, acrylic and solid aluminium powder coated pieces we created this set of awards to embody the larger than life event that Red Bull has curated. We added accents of Gold, Silver and Bronze as a point of difference across the three awards, which captures your attention at the large scale the awards are produced at.
