I’m nearing the end of my graphic design program (almost finished!) and the current task was to design a package label for something, anything: I chose to do a label for my husband’s home brew. I’ll admit that the ‘client’ here is a bit biased; however, the snowgum tree logo and associated beer bottle labels were quite well received!
I also had an assignment to do an entire company brand (logo + letterhead, business card, and envelope design). I opted to redo the ANU logo – a daunting task! I wanted to courageously tackle the ideas of classicism and university shields while also propelling the forward thinking nature of a university. I think the toughest part about a university logo is the audience – the logo must appeal to Nobel laureates, academics, emeritus professors, and high school senior students looking for freshness in their potential university! Did I do a good job? You be the judge.
[I should state here that this was in no way commissioned by ANU, nor should it be used for any such official purpose: it was made purely for fun (unless(until?) ANU decides to buy it from me!)]
I calligraphed the menu (modeled after my friend Deirdre’s script from the workshop she led!) and cooked all the food from scratch. I really do love my hubby. Please visit Deirdre’s website if you want to see her work
