Mark Gowing {Sydney}

Awesome agencies / LWC

Mark Gowing Design was founded in 1997 over on the sunny side of Sydney with the belief that great design is simple; good business with a cultural responsibility.

These founding principles are also evident through Mark’s personal involvement in the design community. He is the director and curator of EyeSaw, an […]

Motherbird {Melbourne}

Awesome agencies / LWC

I have to say, being in this here blogging business, I read a lot of agency ‘profiles’. Many baffle, some astonish and others are just fancy words strung together, however Motherbird seem to have nailed theirs. Not only do they sound interesting they also appear to understand the true function of graphic design. I’ll let you read their words for yourself but needless to say the 3 C’s are present, creative, communication and clients. Needless […]

3 Deep Design {Melbourne}

Awesome agencies / LWC

3 Deep Design are a sophisticated bunch and rightly so. They openly admit that creativity is no longer enough in a such a rapidly changing world of communication and that it’s time to delve deeper. Their strategic approach must be paying off because there are some beautifully executed pieces of work emerging from that Melbourne studio of theirs. Kudos to a good bunch managing to tick both boxes. Tw @3DeepDesign / www.3deep.com.au  

James Kape {Sydney}

LWC / Outstanding individuals

James Kape is a New York based designer so a slight cheat this week but the boy does hail from Sydney, Australia. He focuses primarily on branding, print and web design. James is inspired by refined design, typography and photography. He approaches each project with interest and enthusiasm, always striving to create something both visually effective and appropriate for its intended audience. A perfect candidate to join our troop of outstanding individuals me thinks. www.jameskape.com

Awesome agencies / LWC

Over on the western coast of Australia, sunny Perth plays host to our Southern hemisphere agency of choice this week – Organ Studio. We love the fact that they claim to provoke curiosity with their work, in turn we were curious about that interesting name of theirs. Turns out it’s a creative take on their ability to work in harmony with their clients and network of collaborators. We’re sure by now you are curious enough […]

Cornwell {Melbourne}

Awesome agencies / LWC

Cornwell (not to be confused with Cornwall – home of the British Cornish Pasty) have a very simple recipe for creativity, one which we like the sound of. In their own words: ‘We foster a culture of creativity. This creates possibilities. This attracts talented people. Their talents flourish. The clients get exceptional work’. If these are the results then we reckon their philosophy is a pretty solid one – simples! Tw. @Cornwell  / www.cornwell.com.au

From branding an entire city to the redesign of the iconic woolmark, not to mention involvement in the AGDA including recently designing their collateral for them. Wow, move over Superman… there is a new hero in town. Currently working out of Sydney, Sam’s portfolio has recently made its awaited debut onto the world wide web; here is a tantalising tit […]

Awesome agencies / LWC

Taking flight onto @long_whitecloud‘s weekly Cloud 9 this week is Melbourne studio Bird, led by Luke Carson.

They also curate a candy-filled blog, regularly serving up a healthy dose of visual treats, ch-ch-check it. Tw. @designbybird / Tumblr: www.flywithbird.tumblr.com
