Australia Post
Commissioned by Australia Post Philatelic Group to design a series of stamps celebrating Australia’s landmark modernist architecture, the approach was to portray the buildings in their purist form. Rather than reproducing them in colour, the architecture was expressed in black and white as a sculptural piece, focusing on the play of light, shade and form.
The minisheet for the Landmark Modernist Architecture series was designed using an innovative pinwheel layout, a first for the world of philately. Working closely with the Australia Post Philatelic Group and its pre and post-production teams, Visua was able to resolve all technical reproduction challenges, allowing for this truly unique minisheet.
Proudly, the ‘Landmark Modernist Architecture’ stamp series, has been widely acknowledged throughout the global design community. The stamp series has won numerous awards for design excellence both locally and internationally, as well as being published in the industry’s leading annuals.
