Interpretation signage for Langwarrin Flora & Fauna Reserve. Hand crafted typeface for the headings and designed to be complimentary to the job we did at Point Nepean National Park. Langwarrin Flora and Fauna Reserve has had a long and important role in the military history of Victoria and Australia. Established as a Defence Reserve in 1886, 49 hectares of land was cleared of vegetation to allow for military training and encampments of Victorian colonial forces. The men of these colonial forces were part-time soldiers, similar to today’s reservists.
The reserve at Langwarrin was chosen as an ideal location to house prisoners of war in late 1914. The surrounding bush meant the facility remained private and hidden from the local community. The prisoners detained at Langwarrin were German, Austrian and Turkish nationals living in Australia at the outbreak of the First World War. Later in 1915 a hospital complex was established within the reserve to treat Australian soldiers sent home from deployment suffering venereal diseases they had contracted overseas.
Well worth a visit.

Description
To recognise the ANZAC Centenary, Parks Victoria undertook a significant reinterpretation of the iconic Point Nepean National Park site, Fort Nepean, the location of the historical first shot of the British Empire of World War I.
Through extensive research and consultation we unravelled the stories of this incredible site and these stories are told through the interpretative suite of signage (over 100 signs), motion triggered soundscapes (within the gun emplacements and tunnels), life-size silhouettes of historical figures walking through the park, self-guided brochure. The design sought to focus sensitively on the natural and historical significance of the site so as not to overtake the space and minimise impact on the heritage listed site.
This milestone interpretation project contributes to a combination of on ground conservation, visitor access improvements and public programs at Point Nepean that will provide current and future generations with an enduring connection to the site and its significance to Australia’s military history.

South Channel Fort is an artificial island, built in the 1880s, as a part of the strategic defence network of Port Phillip. To link the island to the Point Nepean National Park, a hierarchy of signage was designed, produced and installed to compliment existing interpretative responses to the park.
Unlocking these fascinating historical stories by the use of sensitive signage and markers allows visitors access to panoramic views over Port Phillip and contributes to the preservation of the important breeding site for the White-faced Storm Petrel and other important birdlife.

The Ronald McDonald House Charities are among some of the most recognisable not for profit organisations in Australia, justifiably lauded for their commitment to seriously ill children and their families.
The Host a Roast campaign required name, logo, supporting visual identity and various advertising platforms to promote the campaign within established brand guidelines.
The peer-to-peer fundraising model of the campaign began as a family engagement model. The goal was to encourage families with seriously ill children to deepen the interpersonal and family connections that are built through the simple act of sharing a meal, while donating the funds that would have been spent on a lunch out.

Hagar Australia is a specialist organisation that works with survivors of slavery and trafficking. Distressingly, Hagar estimates that the price of a slave in 1800 was $40,000 in today's equivalent; in 2014 that figure was $90.
Hagar is committed to the supporting the lives of people who have experienced severe human rights abuses and works through a range of commercial and not for profit entities, and private and public sector partnerships, to achieve this work.
This Christmas appeal drew from illustrations provided by survivors of trafficking, created in art therapy and creative counselling contexts, highlighting the exceptional courage and resilience of those people that Hagar looks to support. Each card was addressed by hand and included a hand written letter from a woman who had experienced trafficking, to ensure that the campaign drew as authentically as possible on the real, lived understanding of this global human rights issue.
We are proud at Studio Tweed to have contributed to this organisation's ability to quadruple the public contributions of their Christmas appeal from the previous year through this work.

To celebrate the launch of this new outdoor film festival, held in the popular beachside destination, Lorne, we worked to create a complete visual identity that spoke immediately to place and the purpose of the event.
Using a black to evoke night (the best time to watch outdoor cinema!), the iconic Lorne Pier and a classic film reel, generated a sleek look for this contemporary festival that looks to engage the community with its dynamic coastal culture and stunning natural environment.
The hand painted, watercolour textures suggest a relaxed ocean feel for a community that is interested in sharing the best that film has to offer and creating a new relationship to place for local and visiting audiences.

The Point Nepean National Park is one of Victoria's most beautiful natural landscapes, with a rich history in shaping Victoria's early settlement, quarantine and defence.
Located at the very tip of the Mornington Peninsula, with outstanding coastal scenery and panoramic views of Bass Strait, the Rip and Port Phillip Bay, the Stables were recently repurposed as a new information precinct to welcome visitors.
As first point of contact for visitors, this project focused on accessible, engaging and digestible information that cued visitors to the many experiences on offer in the park.
Balancing the logistical (i.e. directions, safety etc) and the historical information with a design that was sympathetic to the natural and built environment, this project gave strong attention to the process of information hierarchy and to accessible, appealing informational design. Special attention was paid to the presentation of information for children, to connect with the next generation of visitors to this very special place.

City of Darebin is an incredible community that is in an exciting phase of change and growth. Sharing the achievements, challenges and future direction of the council is, therefore, no simple task.
At almost 300 pages, the City of Darebin Annual Report needs to guide its audience through a large amount of information in ways that are accessible, appealing and demonstrate the council's underlying commitment and responsibility to share information with the community to which it is accountable.
Each page was carefully designed to not only guide the reader through the information with ease, but also to reflect the diversity and uniqueness that is the Darebin area. Readers were assisted through engaging photography, thoughtful layout and text spacing, graphs and infographics, and physical tab navigation, all of which greatly enhanced the publications readability.

Created in collaboration with Greenhatch & Partners, and commissioned artists Judy Nicholson and Jamie Symon, this artwork explores the historical and contemporary cultural significance of the Victoria Park site.
Strata of Memory traces the history of the site from the Wurundjeri people’s past and present connection to the land through to the early development of the suburb and the oval, the birth of the Collingwood Football Club and the evolution of Victoria Park as the heart of the local community.
In collaboration with Aboriginal artists Judy Nicholson and James Symon, a large component of the work tells a story of connection to Country, life by the Yarra River in the Dreamtime for the Wurundjeri tribe and the coming together of the Kulin clans to play the traditional game of marngrook.
Incorporating traditional timeline typography with recessed dates and brass plaques, the sand-blasted and dyed concrete is a lasting reminder of the sense of place of this beloved community site.
