Yarra Ranges Annual Report 2010/11

AK — Mon, 09 Jan 2012 04:52:44 +0000

The 2010/11 Yarra Ranges Annual Report was designed as part of a suite of documents to unify the corporate reporting of Yarra Ranges Council. The council is very forward thinking and progressive – the suite of documents needed to reflect this as well as tell a story about Yarra Ranges and be accessible and engaging to the reader.

As such, large section pages were designed and the report was colour-coded for the reader to easily navigate the document. The bold use of type and strong icongraphic diagrams help to reinforce the Councils message. Large landscape imagery sliced together is used to reflect the beauty and versatility of this truly unique region.

Barwon Water rebrand

AK — Wed, 02 Nov 2011 00:31:57 +0000

Barwon Water is Victoria’s largest regional urban water corporation, providing world class water, recycled water and sewerage services. Struck & Spink was engaged to develop the visual identity and branding.

The creation of the logo was inspired by the three winning entries from the Make a Splash community competition. The entries were combined to create a leaf (to symbolise sustainability and the environment) and a water droplet (to symbolise flowing water – for life). The two shapes are almost intertwined, working together – just as Barwon Water works with the environment, community and as a team.

Three comprehensive style guides were created for the separate divisions within the corporation and were used to roll out a range of documents and marketing collateral.
