NewActon Nishi Design Competition

At the beginning of the year TheRipeCollective enter the NewActon Nishi Logo Competition.

In essence Ripes response to the NewActon Nishi Logo Design Competition was creatively intuitive, using organic markers to relay the sponsors key catch phrases, sustainability, affordability & design excellence. The colour palettes were bold & fresh… The layout interpretive.. A well executed response.

Interesting to note that 10 months down the track, NewActon Nishi the sponsor group for the competition, isn’t using the competition winners logo & id for promotional or business use……. ?????.....
Wonder what happened too all that competition hoopla-hoopla & what not.??

FINDERS KEEPERS MARKETS DEC 2009

December 2009, TheRipeCollective took part in The Finders Keepers Summer Markets.. Ripe was asked to contribute works for the HappenStance Gallery which featured as a sub-part to the FKM. Above; a selection of photographs depicting the walk through masses. Great coverage overall, strange & some what disjointed artistic community appeal.???
