RS Gardens is a landscaping business based in Annandale. RS Gardens needed to revamp its look and combine its current logo into a consistent brand. Coconut Banana helped RS Gardens with its logo, colour palette, typeface and pattern and then applied it to the new business cards and car signage. Therefore giving the business a stronger presence in the Inner West. Recently, the talented Surry Hills design and communications studio COCONUT BANANA designed RS Gardens corporate identity, including business cards, which we printed with an outstanding result.

Surry Hills is the first instalment for INSIDE SERIES. Set on the city’s fringe, Surry Hills has become “gentrified” and is easily one of the most dynamic, creative and desirable place to live in Sydney.

Inspired by a curiosity about what happens behind closed doors… Have you ever lingered a little longer than you should as you walk past the doors of the homes in your neighbourhood? Wondered who lives there, where they have come from, what they do?

It wasn’t always this way though. What is now a thriving village community featuring an eclectic mix of cafe’s, restaurants, bars and high-end retail stores was only relatively recently a suburb well known for prostitution, drug dealing and a variety of other serious crimes.

Meet the people who live and work here. Take a look around their homes and their businesses. Where have they come from? What inspires them to stay? Most importantly, what is it about living in Surry Hills that simply makes them happy. Find out more at INSIDE SERIES which is launching soon.

As part of their launch, Designer extraordinaire Brendan Seery of INVENTORY DESIGN has recently designed their branding/logo and business card design. Wanting to emphasis the ‘key’ logo brand and colour, we printed the business cards utilising our RAISED DIMENSIONAL CLEAR onto Knight Vellum 280gsm which is a nice, bulky stock and holds the dimensional clear extremely well – a perfect result, perhaps a marriage made in heaven.

WHO! CREATIVE recently designed an invitation in collaboration with their client Andy Webster Events, for  Health Foundation BUPA.

As one of the leading corporate supporters of healthcare and medical research in Australia, the Bupa Health Foundation is committed to improving the health of the Australian community and ensuring the sustainability of affordable healthcare. Too often, good ideas never have the chance to make a difference. The Bupa Health Foundation, with its partnerships in health initiatives and practice, is focused on putting that right. Bupa are all about BUILDING ON A STRONG FOUNDATION, hence the invitation and package we recently printed for their recent event. To reflect on ‘BUILD’ the client chose white Lego blocks, in correlation with embossing the package and invitation on 340gsm & 270gsm Splendorgel, then packaged and sent out.

We recently attended the Heidelberg Women in Print Roadshow 2012 in Sydney on 27 March, which is just as the name suggests – a collaboration of women in the print media industry. The group acts as a support team, offering opportunities to network while benefiting women from all walks of life, in and around the industry. Proprint featured the event, where Account Manager Stacy Masiruw and Creative Services Manager Lisa Loxley (from Digitalpress) attended the event. Special mention and thanks to the lovely Emma from K.W.Doggett Fine Paper. The night featured sit-down dinner and networking, prizes and games. Special guest speaker was West Australian barrister Judith Fordham.

A while back we printed an exclusive launch invite in collaboration with InStyle Magazine for luxury label Salvatore Ferragamo. So when we saw our invitation pop up in this month’s InStyle Magazine (May) we were flattered of course. The invite was an introduction to a special and exclusive invited only group of style-makers to celebrate the opening of one of Salvatore Ferragamo’s new boutique stores.
