Intangible Sound Symbol

To find a symbol that represents audio and not a physical element was difficult. This is a symbol of a sound wave growing in volume and pitch. The other image is a symbol for prayer. Prayer being an intangible element. You can't physically see the prayer but you can hear a prayer spoken.

By using a common coke can a metaphor is drawn in the poster, "You Can't Bring It Back". The coke can also portrays how diverse and common the problem of destroying green space is.

Rheebus Exercise- This was much more challenging then I first expected. Creating a drawing that has enough detail to give a sound and joining those together was very difficult. In this attempt at a rheebus the illustrations are suppose to create the sentence "Icelandic Houseboat Party"!

Barangaroo Sketches

These sketches were used in the creation of our symbols for barangaroo preservation and ultimately enriching Australia (Sydney) about the importance of green space in a city.

Our distribution is also sketched, the idea that people need oxygen and we will give them oxygen as gifts. Playing on oxygen being free today but maybe not in the future and giving green space its significance and importance back.

Find A Symbol Of Revolution That Now Is Not

The southern cross I believe was a symbol of revolution, a break away from the British rule in Australia. It gives Australia its own identity, bringing the people together. Although this symbol has become patriotic amongst most Australians it has caused a massive problem within our community. It has segregated Australia and its foundation of immigrants, for example the "Cronulla Riots". So I believe this symbol has completely changed from its original meaning to bring together a nation to segregating one!

Find A Symbol That Has Changed Its Meaning

The symbol of beauty by having a tan has changed. Years ago their were few acknowledged consequences for sun tanning and there for most people did it and wanted to be "brown". This symbol or icon of a bronzed aussie has changed with the detection of skin cancer and realisation that when you get older your skin will look like leather and not beautiful idealistic at all!

Symbols Giving Direction Without Using Arrows

2.Directing traffic through blind spot
3.Direction for bike route

These are all symbols in our environment that direct us without using a typical arrow.
