RE:COLLECTION

Re:collection was established in 2009 by Dominic Hofstede as an online archive of Australian graphic design, with a focus on work created between the years 1960-1990. The project was created primarily to address the scarcity of reference material available related to this most significant period for the profession. The passing of Les Mason late in 2009 highlighted the need for such a resource. Mason was arguably our industry's most significant individual, and yet evidence of his work and career was virtually non-existent in the public domain. We believed, and still do, that this work deserves a platform by which it can inform and enrich other designers, both locally and globally... To investigate the evolution and maturation of Australia's graphic design industry during this key period
