- CENTENARY OF THE AAE 1911-1914
Commemorating the 100th anniversary of the 1911-1914 Australasian Antarctic Expedition (AAE) led by Sir Douglas Mawson, this complex commission sees the issuing of 5 stamps, a miniature sheet and associated products every year, for four years. Working with the imagery of legendary Australian photographer Frank Hurley, this series of stamps visually narrates the journey from the Hobart departure of the AAE through to its triumphant return to Adelaide four years later. On this occasion the studio was also responsible for the design of the stamp pack, first day cover, maxi cards and postmark.

- EMERGENCY SERVICES
Australia Post commissioned us to design a series of four stamps with the objective of raising public awareness of Australia's national emergency telephone number - 000. The resulting issue features one stamp for each of fire, police and ambulance services whilst the fourth stamp reiterates the important criteria when making an emergency call - to stay focused, relevant and online.

- CORRUGATED LANDSCAPES
This stamp series pays homage to Australia's love affair with corrugated iron. Since the 1850's, corrugated iron has been seen in Australia from the outback to the city. This commission of four stamps celebrates corrugated iron in all it's incarnations - from rusted, weathered forms through to contemporary, ecologically aware architectural applications.

- THE FIRST AUSTRALIAN COIN
These two stamps were issued to mark the 150th anniversary of the first official coin produced in Australia. The stamps feature the obverse and reverse sides of the coin and imagery of the Sydney Mint, where the coin was struck. On the miniature sheet the stamps were foiled, overprinted and embossed.
