The inspiring Mia Oatley has her latest exhibition the Night Queen at NG Art Gallery from the 30th of July until the 16th of August.
We are lucky enough to be only just around the corner from the NG Gallery and were able to have a sneak peak before opening night and we loved it!
Mia uses a beautiful blend of pastel colours to create a unique collection of fun summery works.
The Ridge is one of Dragon Eye Properties (DEP) eco-friendly residential development projects located amongst the trees in Warriewood. Based on this DEP required Fish Tank Creative to brand The Ridge project to promote the ecologically sustainable development.
The final concept is crafted with classical style and typographical hierarchy with a small leaf icon that has been included to allude to the clean natural environment.
It’s not a secret that social media is no longer a novelty but a powerful business tool, in saying this Fish Tank Creative has just joined the world of Instagram!
Unfortunately the main flaw in the Instagram platform is there is no ability for multiple account management. It is becoming more popular to have multiple accounts (e.g personal and company accounts) and we all know Instagram only allows you to have the one account on a single device and therefore makes multiple account management a real head ache. Aside from logging in and out of your different accounts there is no way to switch between accounts.
To help us manager our Fish Tank Creative Instagram account we looked into alternative ways to manage multiple accounts on one mobile device.
We first thought the app Primary answered all our preys but unfortunately it still doesn’t support the function to upload photos to multiple Instagram accounts. Although I wouldn’t disregard this app completely as it allows you to fast-switch between different accounts which we have found to be extremely useful if you want to monitor your posts. You can also view and respond to your photo comments and wait for it…. you can pinch and zoom into photos! Instagram currently doesn’t allow the usual pinch and zoom function.
The Instapload app is quiet basic although it does allow for you to upload photos to multiple accounts. HOORAY!! Another handy little feature of this app is that you can easily download posts from other Instagram accounts directly into your photo gallery. Good bye screen shots!
One con we found in using Instapload is it seems the sharpness of your image is reduced on upload so we may have to be careful when using this app.
On this happy but windy Friday we would like to welcome our newest client Dragon Eye Properties (DEP), a Sydney residential property development company.
Fish Tank Creative is feeling very lucky to have be approached by DEP to re-brand their current Sunvalley Warriewood project.
The provided brief required us to create a brand that reflected the coastal environment of the developments location in the Northern Beaches. In the end we used an abstract circular shape combined with a handwritten styled typography to create a natural free flowing concept.
Whilst aimlessly browsing through the endless world of Instagram we came across some amazing talent from Omaha, Nebraska.
Nicolas Fredrickson is a Designer but his passion has always been in hand lettering. NF has a talent in experimenting with mixed media in order to create a hand made feel to his beautiful typography.
If you’re in Sydney’s Inner West, then One Penny Red is the place to be! OPR is the latest wine bar/restaurant in Summer Hill.
Fish Tank Creative was given the opportunity to work with One Penny Red and create the following collateral;
We were even lucky enough to attend the restaurants opening night and try the delicious contemporary cuisine menu. We recommend the smashed pea crostini with pickled zucchini & buffalo mozzarella along with the banana and salted caramel beignet soufflé with chocolate fudge dipping sauce for dessert, delicious!
