tilt & collide

beautiful and minimalistic signage system from australian agency collider for a library and community centre

…each module not only holds the description of the destination but also tilts towards that destination…

…the proximity of the destination determines the angle of the tilt. The angularity of the tilted entrance type bows to the entering public while mimicking the angle of the internal glass facade…

welcome inc.

Did your work experience at the Leo Burnett agency play a large role in your deciding that maintaining a small business was better than running an office of over 100 people?

Yes, that was the major reason: I saw at Burnett that I will not be able to actually design when my office is bigger, and I saw the advantages of a large office for the clients as tiny, while the disadvantages were huge.
