Sarah Maxey Design - Sarah Maxey

 Sarah Maxey is a graphic artist based in Wellington. Since 1991, she has designed for publishing companies in NZ and abroad, including 2 years designing and art directing for Bloomsbury Publishing in the UK. On her return to NZ in 1996, she established her own studio providing thoughtful design solutions for the arts publishing sector, winning many awards for her book design in the process. She was guest presenter at the Typeshed11 Typography Symposium in 2009 and her work was showcased in the 4th series of The Gravy, the TVNZ arts programme. Recent commissions include typographical drawings for clients as diverse as The New York Times and City Gallery Wellington and a large hand-lettered wall installation for a group show at the Hirschfeld Gallery. Her fourth solo show of typographical work will open in late May 2010 at Bowen Galleries, Wellington.

 

Architecture - OH.NO.SUMO
Sarosh Mulla / Katherine O'Shaughnessy / Patrick Loo

 OH.NO.SUMO. is a design collective made up of Sarosh Mulla, James Pearce, Katherine O’Shaughnessy and Patrick Loo. OH.NO.SUMO. aims to produce work outside of the usual architectural conventions and is focused on realising projects that act as provocations or test sites for ideas. With an interest in the alternative architectural materials and geometric formations the collective works on all spatial scales. Often branching out into graphic and event work to provide a holistic experience for the user, projects aim to breakdown the barriers between designers and the general public.
