It’s been a gruelling couple of months in lockdown for us here in the Hunter, and it’s starting to feel a little like Groundhog Day! Luckily, we’ve had lots of fulfilling branding and creative work to keep us focused and motivated. It’s been a while since our last project update – when you’re in the […]
Each year Mezzanine’s $10K Project Grant floors us. It’s an opportunity for all of us to see new ideas, initiatives, and leading brands seeking to be conscious and creative.

Have you thought about the kind of people you attract as a business? Do they have shared values? The more you project your values out into the world through your communications and actions, the more you’ll draw in those who are aligned and keen to support you.

Things have been rolling along at Mezz as well as they can be in these times and we’ve been grateful to be involved in more meaningful projects with people we admire. Reflecting on our progress is one of our goals this year, and the past few months have seen us achieve quite a lot as a […]
Sunny Street Provides Vital Medical Support to Vulnerable and Homeless Australians in Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast with the Goal to Grow Nationally!

It’s time for Conscious Brands to step up as business leaders in our communities – but how? How can you maintain and strengthen your brand in times like these, so once the crisis subsides you come out the other side of it stronger? How can you act consciously? And how can you innovate and pivot […]
2020 started with a very full schedule for us, with lots of things happening at once. We’re happy to report we’ve made it through the first six weeks of the year with our sanity intact and some admirable work all thanks to our incredible team and equally brilliant clients.

If you want to build a meaningful, spirited brand that owns its space, and a company that truly acts in alignment with its values, focus on intrinsic motivation in your business and brand strategy. What drives your company at a human level? What drives your ideal customer? How can you create empathic alignment to bring out the best in each other? Nikki shares Part 3 of her blog series 'Redefining business with purpose'.
We all want to leave a legacy of some kind, or if not a legacy, at least something positive in our wake. We start out striving for betterment - a better way to serve, a more useful product, better solutions, a better connection, or maybe just simply striving for our own betterment every day. Purpose moves us towards meaning, drive, passion and fulfilment. It's the origin of collaboration, contribution, innovation, growth and a positive future. Nikki shares Part 2 when it comes to redefining purpose in business!
Is there a meaning-gap in your work? If there was something greater your company could be contributing to beyond its function, what might that look like? Nikki shares a bit about her life/business journey with finding and harnessing her purpose on the Mezzanine blog!
Our long-standing clients at Grocon asked us to partner with them on their exciting project 'The Ribbon' a while back and we have since been a part of developing the visual identity, designing and printing the construction site's hoarding and creating their website to serve their needs. The Ribbon is a breathtaking new development set to transform Sydney's skyline and form an extraordinary new gateway to the western side of the city's CBD.
The way that NewCo works as a business festival is that you plan your schedule on their mobile phone app and travel between each office space to sit in on a design thinking workshop, strategy session or receive a sizeable dose of inside knowledge with their respective business leader. What's different about these select companies is that they are intentionally harnessing their true and higher purpose which leads into creating positive change in our world – we're pretty excited that more and more businesses are pursuing something more than just the ol' 9–5.
Thanks for the write up Xero!
What a year! We’ve seen so much growth - in ourselves, the brands we are helping to build and in all of the people we serve.
Our very own Dom Sammut has got a blog up on the Purpose.do website. He chats about values-led leadership and how he was able to put into practice concepts that had been shared with him at last year's conference. We recommend you get yourselves a ticket to Purpose 2016 (check our social media for $100 off)!
Thank you for the mention Mumbrella! We loved being a part of creating The Salvation Army Australia's Christmas campaign. It is a privilege to help share their story intertwining with the lives of many. This time of year reminds us that it is most important to give beyond ourselves and lend a hand in our community.
Conscious Capitalism Australia (CCA) is the latest establishment to recognise the Hunter region as an incubator for good business, and we’re proud to have been a part of their launch here in Newcastle. We’re all about integrity in business and elevating humanity through our work, so finding the CCA community was like the yin to our yang.
