‘Tis the Season

For many of us the 1st day in December is the traditional date to put up the pine-scented Tannenbaum, string up twinkling fairy lights and hang oversized Christmas stockings over a fireplace that won’t be lit again for another several months at least. However at Melbourne’s GPO the elves had already crept in a couple of weeks ago to bring festive cheer to the centre overnight.

Our Christmas installation for 2009 is complete. It is a modern, minimal take on seasonal colours designed by our friends at Davidson Branding and Diadem. Hundreds of red, green and clear acrylic shards have been laser-cut and now dangle from the ceiling like out of this world icicles. Take a look at the initial concept and finished result below or visit and see the optical spectacle for yourself (we dare you to try and figure our how many shards there are; alternatively what a handy way to distract the kids while you complete your Christmas shopping!)
