THE BRIEF:
Create a more environmentally friendly and functional alternative to adhesive bandages that stands out in today's market.
THE SOLUTION:
Protect and Heal eliminates the need for unnecessary and wasteful bandage packaging that’s difficult to open by providing an alternative that’s innovative, eco-friendly, easily accessible and resealable. Although the product itself isn’t revolutionary, the pull-out tray sets it apart from already established brands. Its bold and bright colours make it easily identifiable both on the shelf and in your at-home first aid kit, saving you the hassle of searching for a bandage in emergencies.
THE BRIEF:
Design a comprehensive identity system that reinvigorates Callan Park as a public space and connects the community to its rich history.
THE SOLUTION:
Callan Park, located in Lilyfield NSW, was once a psychiatric facility spanning over 63 hectares of land and over 130 buildings. Nowadays, the majority of buildings are neglected, bordered up and abandoned, with the land primarily being used as a dog park by locals. This initiative aims to connect the community to history by restoring the Lawn Bowling pavilion into a cafe and urban seating area.
The chosen wordmark pays homage to existing signage on-site yet modernises it by utilising a bold, stretched typeface alongside colours that would stand out and contrast with its surroundings.
