Project AHealthcore 2025


Healthcore



Healthcore is a multidisciplinary allied health provider delivering personalised, community-based care across South Australia. The project involved developing a refreshed brand identity that balanced the credibility of an established healthcare organisation with the warmth, optimism and accessibility central to its approach. 

My role centred on translating these values into a distinctive visual language, creating a flexible and engaging identity capable of connecting with clients, families, healthcare professionals and the broader community.

Project BTable Wines2023 — Ongoing


Table Wines



Table Wines is a South Australian wine brand with a fresh perspective and a deliberately un-wine-like sensibility. Celebrating alternative Mediterranean varietals that thrive in South Australia's climate, the brand draws a considered parallel between local wine culture and the relaxed, communal traditions of Mediterranean food and drink. 

My work spans the development and ongoing creative direction of the brand, establishing a distinctive identity that carries across packaging, illustration, merchandise and digital communications. Wine without the pretence, made for humble enjoyment.

Elsewhere is an independent Adelaide hair salon offering a more considered and personal approach to beauty. Built around principles of connection, clarity and individuality, the salon celebrates natural beauty through technical expertise and a distinctly understated sensibility. 

My involvement encompassed brand identity, art direction and digital design, developing an expressive yet restrained visual language that reflects the salon's values and creates a cohesive, recognisable presence across its communications.

DAYJOB is an Adelaide café with a relaxed yet uncompromising approach to quality coffee, hospitality and community. Developed alongside the café's relocation and evolution, the project involved creating a distinctive and adaptable brand identity that balances bold typography, playful illustration and an understated visual sensibility.
