Planning Victoria
Project overview
As part of the Victorian Government's Digital Reform program, I contributed to the full refresh of the Planning department's digital presence in collaboration with Today Design. This included rebranding following the department's transition from DELWP to the Department of Transport and Planning, ensuring both visual and written content were accessible and aligned with inclusivity and modernisation goals.
