CASE STUDY

C Design is a design & communications consultancy established in 1983 by Francis Greenaway, an English national who perfected his design skills at the City of London Polytechnic. C Design almost immediately positioned itself as Sydney's market leader in design services, and was responsible for some of the most recognisable brands and identity systems in Australian business and the public sector.

Greenaway's ability and track record as one of the country's most capable creative directors, possessing the rare ability to translate the values and the language of business and institutions into quality visual systems and effective design, held the business in good stead for many years. This was proven by the enduring nature of C Design's work for institutions such as the National Library of Australia, Australia Heritage Commission, National Museum of Australia, Art Gallery of NSW, and the NSW Parliament. C Design has also maintained an impressive publishing portfolio for leading arts and cultural institutions as well as prestige projects for top tier professional firms and major corporations.
