Renee Coffey, North Island Rodie Tour, closing gig poster


This poster was specifically designed to celebrate the closure of the Renee Coffey North Island Tour, 2014. Using a warm color palette, the poster conveys the sensation of being in a warm lazy summer evening. The double exposure effect gives a certain feel of intimacy and introspection, which is well suited for this private event.

Making waves!

http://theroundupblog.com/

Just came across "The Roundup Blog... an online collection that delivers the web's most interesting content." (They're words, not mine ;) ).  I believe this is the first time my work has been published on a design blog without me having to submit it.  :D

Thanks to RoundUp for considering my work! Hit the link to see what other interesting and cool things they have put together.

Cheers guys!

Winter day!


Today hasn't been particularly cold, in fact, it almost seems like everyday has been as cold as this one! That's not entirely true of course, we've been having some nice sunny days and they almost feel like spring... until the wind reminds us that we're only experiencing an illusion, hahaha.

Keeping myself warm at home, I look out the window from my "studio" and can see how it's hailing quite hard. Fifteen minutes later the sun comes back out and all traces of hail has disappeared except for the puddles on the street. Hail is always an event here in Wellington but will never compare to when it snowed a few years back, "a once in a life time event" they called it... unless you're like 90. That was an awesome day!!


Cool little video that captured the feeling of that day :)

AMN5

Fifth International Conference on Advanced Materials and Nanotechnology

 
 

The MacDiarmid Institute organizes an International Biennial Conference that offers a broad interdisciplinary overview of advanced materials and nanotechnology, and provides an exciting forum to discuss new and exciting advances in the field.



The logo for this event had to depict the fact that the conference was taking place in New Zealand. It also had to include the concept of nanotechnology and/or advanced materials, which are the main areas in which the conference focuses on.

In order to address these requirements, the proposed solution had a representation of New Zealand created by organic forms, round, curvaceous elements that seem to meld together for a specific purpose. The repetition of these elements can then devise organized structures, by which, the concept of having advanced materials or nanotechnology has been achieved.


Applications of logo and secondary elements on assorted
conference materials. This part of the project was undertaken
by the conference organizers.
