While the creation of the Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) has good intentions, one unintended consequence of this scheme was the perception of easy money by lifestyle farmers. Home was created as a way to visualise the complex rules, roles and obligations for would-be participants.
As part of a greater Asia precinct refresh at Te Nukuao Wellington Zoo, I was tasked with redesigning the environmental graphics for the Red Panda habitat from concept to production. This design was inspired by the lives of Red Pandas who are arboreal and live high in the treetops.
For the arrival of two new Lions from Copenhagen Zoo, we refreshed the interps in the visitor space at our Lion habitat. I was tasked with conceptualising new interps while adopting a pre-existing design system that was previously established to ensure there was a consistency in the experience.
I have worked on campaigns at Te Nukuao such as the openings of Snow Leopards, Kiwi, and the birth of Nia, the baby Giraffe. I was also involved in rebranding our Close Encounters, designing the Annual Report, and collateral for events such as the International Zoo Educators conference.
As part of the latest set of animal welfare regulations to be released, I lead the creation of a full suite of animal welfare collateral from ideation through to design, development, illustration and implementation. Other collateral included posters, social media, and videos.
Mycoplasma bovis has had a life-changing impact for many New Zealand farmers. As part of the M. bovis Independent Review team, I was tasked with the visual story telling surrounding this review of the programme. This work also included creating a 1 metre long timeline for each year the programme has been in existance.
Taking on the Ministry for Primary Industries Annual Report was an opportunity to push the organisation branding in a new, modern direction. This project involved creating the layout as well as infographics and illustrations as required. See the full 2018/19 report or 2019/20 report.
Throughout my time working at the Ministry for Primary Industries, I have designed various reports to communicate the stories of the people of New Zealand. If you would like to see more of any of these projects please get in touch.
After hearing about the plethora of stamps available in Japan, I was inspired to use my skills to create a personalised itinerary for a recent trip to Tokyo and Osaka. This itinerary was to be the home for the beautiful stamps and souvenirs I collected while overseas.
In 1926 the Opua wrecked along the Tora Coast just outside of Wellington. "The Opua" was a record of the events that, for many years, was a landmark on the Wairarapa Coast. First published by Peter Deller over 60 years ago, it is now a restoration project for Katie Deller and I to republish once again.
I am currently a Graphic Designer for Taronga Conservation Society Australia. I'm open for collaborations including in areas outside of design.
