Work That Works: The State Library of Queensland illustrative asset suite for QLD public library programs. The concept celebrates play and imagination as a powerful tool to shape our world, connecting themes of place, change, and creation. The imagination is an endless possibility to build our realities, through our memories, connections and creativity. Each tile for the illustrative suite is designed to mix and match, giving the play to both the creator and audience. Illustration • Campaign • Design Read more via the 🔗 in bio to our website.

Work That Works: First Nations kids resources for PACT (Protect All Children Today), a not-for-profit that advocates for victims and witnesses in Queensland, ensuring support through the stressful process of giving evidence, empowered through their justice journey. To support a kid’s journey through the court system, victims and witnesses of crime need safe support to interact with, and to understand information around the court process without feeling shame, pressure, or exclusion. We put together a team with backgrounds in the court system and education, and our insights and research tell us that focusing on culturally appropriate narrative-based storytelling is the way that we can hold information better. We also must take into account the nuances of trauma-informed learning, and the impact this will have on a person’s ability to absorb information at a time of heightened stress. So, with that in mind — we created a suite of materials designed specially to engage kids. Leaning more on culturally appropriate storytelling will be an effective tool to increase participation and recall, while gamifying the materials is likely to achieve better outcomes with quite complex and technical information.

We worked with Design Outlook on the identity for the 2024 conference. The theme this year is "High Fidelity". How to we conceptualise High Fidelity in a way that serves the eco over ego? We focused on what ‘best design’ is within the creative industries through the lens of how it impacts people, place and future. See our process in the slides below. 🔗 There are still tickets available to this year's event: June 20 in Melbourne: https://lnkd.in/gWvMUKg3
