Commercial Work
Don’t get me wrong – I love working for corporate clients and making an impact through my graphic design work. But commercial jobs for small businesses are where I have the most fun.
Brand strategy and construction, print pattern design, packaging design, book illustration, fashion design, event invitations, small business websites, art commissions, game concept art, and logo work are my personal passions – and are the reason I became a graphic designer in the first place.
That’s why you’ll still find so many small businesses in my portfolio.
Featured Work:
Studio Drydock
One of my proudest-ever projects, Origami Graphics created the branding for Melbourne indie game studio, Studio Drydock, way back in 2020. The goal – to help them put their best foot forward to customers and investors as they worked on their first game Wylde Flowers.
We worked to create a visual brand that communicated safety and friendliness, with a “Drydock” representing a place that boats go to sit safely out of the water. The clients wanted their branding to be professional, but welcoming – reflecting their inclusivity and their desire to make games without violence or prejudice.
The now-iconic paper boat logo appears animated in Wylde Flowers, which is available on Steam (rated Overwhelmingly Positive) and Nintendo Switch. Studio Drydock has now successfully scaled and is working on a sequel – Wylde Society – whilst winning accolades for Wylde Flowers such as the Apple Arcade Game of the Year and a GLAAD Award for Outstanding Video Game.
I’m stoked to have been a part of their story and have proudly racked up more than 100 hours in my own playthroughs (yes, several) of this brilliant and fully voice-acted homegrown game.
Featured Work: Surveyors Hill
Late in 2020, I redesigned the logo, labels and signage for local winery Surveyors Hill. We kept the topographic pattern from the original labels, but modernised it for a more minimal, simple and confident feel. Gold foiling helps the label pop in print, while variations such as rose, rooster, and bull shapes were created for tempranillo and rosé variants of the wines.
This timeless rebrand still looks fresh and iconic 6 years later, in 2026 – showing how well the client’s initial design investment paid off.
Featured Work: Rainbows and Fairies
Repeating pattern illustrations hand-drawn from scratch – well before the time of AI.
Tracey from Rainbows and Fairies is one of my favourite clients. A clothing company, she sends me ideas for colourful and fun designs and I bring them to life! From hot air balloons to toadstools, cadillacs to caravans, and dragons to woodland creatures, I’m so proud to have my designs splashed all over some beautiful clothes and shoes – and it’s one of the best and most consistent examples of my illustration work.
