SLHD Year in Review 2013 - cover

Sydney Local Health District Year in Review 2013

For the last couple of years I’ve done the Sydney Local Health District’s (SLHD) Year in Review documents. They have a very clear idea of how they want them to look – in particular they like the magazine style layout rather than a corporate document style. The books are usually around 36 pages, and because…

HealthShare Year In Review 2013 cover

HealthShare NSW Year in Review 2013

Year in Reviews are like Annual Reports, and are projects that you get to experiment more with design than the normal everyday projects. Here are a few pages from the HealthShare NSW Year in Review 2012-13.

NSW Health Staff Uniform Catalogue cover

Dressing up the uniform catalogue

Catalogues are one of those jobs that designers love to hate… unless the editing and layout instructions are clear and well organised, they have an obsessive-compulsive attention to detail and endless time to get the template exactly right.

The NSW Health awards judges a whole range of health projects being conducted throughout New South Wales in seven different categories, and holds an awards…

Youth Health Policy report cover

Healthy bodies, healthy minds, vibrant futures

In 2010 I designed the NSW Health Youth Health Policy 2010-2015, “Healthy bodies, healthy minds, vibrant futures’. The client wanted the document to be in two colours that were high contrasting so that when the PDF was downloaded by health workers throughout NSW it would still be readable when printed on a black and white…

Physical Healthcare of Mental Health Consumers Guidelines document cover

Physical health for mental health

One of the first projects I worked on when I first started as a graphic designer at the NSW Department of Health in 2007 was the Physical Health Care for Mental Health Consumer guidelines. The policy document outlined the benefits of exercise for people living with a mental health condition. The brief was to design…
