about me
Hello, i’m naomi
I’m one of those arty types who likes to make things look gorgeous. I am a creative neat freak who likes to be surrounded by fresh flowers and a riot of colour. I love nature, I love fashion and I especially love the smell of artists pencils. A perfectionist by default, creative projects often pop into my head like a visual thought bubble. I have a passion for colour and typography and an intense dislike of the inappropriate use of Comic Sans. My design ethos is to create design which is elegant yet usable, simple yet striking . . . it is all about the aesthetic.

tafe western
These learner resources were developed by the hospitality section of TAFE Western. TAFE Western have a certain branding style to which cover designs must adhere. The internal pages of the booklet were made up with a one third/two thirds layout with the predominantly empty column being utilised every few pages for a piece of important information.

illustration
The shy, yet inquisitive nature of the green tree frog is captured in this illustration The contrast in the image highlights the face and front legs, emphasising the sparkle in the eyes and the inquiring tilt of the frog’s head.

raggidy rag dolls
Handmade in Australia and inspired by vintage fabrics, each limited edition rag doll is a real character. This magazine advertisement needed to emphasise that character and what better way to do that than with a strong focus on the gorgeous face of the doll. The finish to the image and the script typeface also play on the vintage feel.
illustrated prints
Illustration and typography are combined here to make illustrated prints for a child’s bedroom (see left).
cards
One of the most difficult design jobs I’ve ever had to do was to create a sympathy card for a close friend who lost her baby. The card to the right was the one I sent on the first anniversary of his death. To be able to create something so personal at such a difficult time is very special to the people receiving the card.
‘An angel in the book of life wrote down my baby’s birth, then whispered as she closed the book too beautiful for earth’
invitation styles
The following pages give ideas for different layouts in invitations, but are also an example of how you can achieve stunning variations where typography is used to create different styles and effects.

the t company
The t company sells organic tea through trendy tea bar outlets and online.
This product is hip, it’s cool, it’s on trend. It is organically healthy yet has a sense of humour about it’s healthy lifestyle. The descriptions of the teas are like reading the descriptions on a bottle of wine, which promotes the concept of visiting a tea bar for drinks after work as opposed to calling into the pub.
The unique selling point for this brand of tea is their humourous approach within the descriptions of their teas, making their ‘health’ product more palatable to the majority.
Vibrant colours were specifically chosen to embody the feeling of zest and energy the product portrays. Modern, stylish patterns adorning the side of the boxes also give appeal for the target market.
daintree conservation society
This newly formed non-government organisation’s goal is to protect, repair and restore the Daintree Rainforest of Australia’s far north and to maximise the protection of forest biodiversity.
As they are a new company, they need to develop their website and promotional material in order to promote their organisation and what they do.
The Daintree Conservation Society plan on launching their organisation at an exclusive fundraising gala.
The beautiful imagery showcases the allure of the Daintree without needing much else added to it.
Simple tag lines engage the viewer, encouraging them to interact by finding humour or thinking about a question and the transparent colour blocks emphasise type without impeding the image underneath and are repeated throughout.
The colour scheme is carried throughout and the style is easily recognisable from one part of the campaign to the next.
Billboard signage will appear on bus shelters around our major capital cities to raise awareness of the organisation with a call to action for people to visit the website.
A series of postcards have also been developed for visitors to the Daintree Rainforest. These postcards are to be humourous and have an environmental slant in an attempt to differentiate from other postcards on the market. Proceeds from the sale of these postcards will go towards the Daintree Conservation Society, making people feel like they are supporting a worthy cause.
The Black&green Gala is an exclusive fundraising event. The Daintree Conservation Society plan for it to become one of Brisbane’s premier social events and a major fundraiser for the Society. The invitation is printed in black on heavy card with a spot UV coating applied to the word ‘Black’ to further enhance the elegance of the invitation. The inside of the card is printed with a stunning image of Cape Tribulation overlaid with a infographic of some statistics of the wildlife in the area.
