First wave works underway at Dunsborough lakes

Following our appointment as creative agency for the Dunsborough Lakes golf course land estate in south west Western Australia we have been busy on a complete re-branding of the project. A new logo has been approved and a brochure, website and site signage are currently in the works. To announce their plans for the spectacular beachside estate, Wallis Property has also commissioned us to produce an editorialised newsletter, Lakeside, to be printed and door-dropped to existing residents and the wider local community. The first edition is available to view here.

GOING, GOING… GONE! LAND SALES GATHER PACE AT PROVIDENCE

Good news reached us recently from our clients at Providence Estate where stages 2 and 3A, the latest release phases of this eventual 800-lot development, sold out within a matter of days. Pretty good going in one of Perth’s most competitive land corridors. Telltale provided complete branding services for the estate up to launch, including a mobile-responsive website and suite of marketing collateral, and we continue to support the project with ongoing marketing services, including a billboard campaign that’s scheduled for roll out in the coming weeks.

“PASS THE MUSTARD AND THROW ANOTHER LOG ON THE FIRE”

Random travel anecdote… On a recent trip to Amsterdam to create content for the website of the Peter Pan Never Ending Story World Arena Tour we came across what, by our reckoning, must be the coolest steak restaurant on the planet: Bar-beque Castell. Eating a 10-inch steak with a foot-long knife while sitting on a bum-hugging sofa in front of a roaring log fire set among the retro-glamour stylings of a 1970s ski-lodge (it’s almost a surprise not to find Rod Stewart and Britt Ekland intertwined at the next table) is an experience we urge everyone to get around to asap. Thanks to photo assistant Ben for the recommendation.
