Victorian Opera
2010 Season Campaign | View Making Of Video
Passion, seduction, revenge and redemption were some of the emotions experienced by the heroines of the 2010 season of Victorian Opera and our designers. It was worth it. "All our season brochures have been good but the 2010 brochure is without doubt the best document the company has produced."
Richard Gill, Music Director, Victorian Opera.

Warrnambool Cheese - Packaging
Warrnambool Cheese
Packaging
The people and dairy farmers of Warrnambool are proud of their cheese. It's made with lots of care, passion and commitment. So was the packaging we designed for their vintage and mature cheddars and their range of flavoured cheeses. The farmers were wrapped with the result.

Online Newsletter
White White is a new online update on the world of bathroom design we produce for Reece. We launched it with nothing. Literally. At Saturday in Design 2009 we gave architects and designers a White notebook we designed where they could record their own inspiration. A testimony to the power of negative space.

Sale Campaign
ASKO are a manufacturer of internationally renowned appliances for the kitchen and laundry. They're also Swedish. So, they love life, appreciate great design, and are committed to quality. They also like to do things a little differently, usually with a touch of clever humour. Even their sales. It's great when you have something in common with your client.

MDAV
Book
The Medical Defence Association of Victoria was established in 1895. In July 2007 it merged with UNITED Medical Protection to form a new entity, Avant, thus closing a chapter on MDAV's long history. The MDAV story was a good one. So a book was written. We designed it. And even case bound it using exposed box board and a fabric spine. Cool.

Careers

We're always looking for creative, committed people to help us move others. Right now, we need the following people.

Click a role for more information.

Mid Level or Senior Designer
We're looking for a seasoned performer ready to hit the ground running in a very team-orientated studio. You'll need to complement but also challenge our design team with your confidence and experience

We want someone who is capable of being the creative lead on projects and who will constantly surprise us with strong, fresh ideas. A passion for design, an understanding of branding and the ability to work smoothly with a diverse, multidisciplinary team are important.

You will work with great clients including leading retail, fashion and hospitality brands, and some of Australia's largest organisations. And you'll do it in an incredible studio space full of talented people. We've got a pretty flexible approach to remuneration and are more than happy to reward great talent.

Contact us if you're interested.

Account Manager
We're looking for a bright, energetic person to manage the well being of our client's brands and the souls and hearts of our creative team.

You'll do this by being curious, clever and committed.

You'll be naturally inquisitive and make an effort to learn what our clients do and what's important to their business.

You'll understand how brand communication works. So, you'll know what a brand pyramid is and that the right creative solution often includes more than just an ad or a brochure.

You'll be able to prepare a brief that inspires our creative team and then have the sense and good taste to recognise the right creative solution (see paragraph above).

You'll treat our clients' money as if it's your own which will make it easy for you to estimate (with the help of our production manager) and invoice accurately and regularly.

You'll value time – yours, the rest of the teams' and the clients' – so you'll prepare project schedules and ensure we stick to them (with the help of our studio manager).

You'll be nice, funny but firm because you'll need to engage and direct a bunch of sometimes whacky people including our print, web, and motion designers. And, of course, our clients! A little confidence would be good too.

Above all, you'll care about what you do.

In return, we'll give you great clients; interesting, challenging work; an incredible studio space; gifted, passionate people; autonomy; a flexible approach to remuneration and reward commensurate with your value, and a great deal of respect.

Contact us if you're interested.
