2 Western Wilds is all about discovery and taking the road less travelled. We started from a very practical place, taking inspiration from navigation and signage. We took typographic cues from the stretched road type and part of the design language was informed by highway signage systems. We looked to the attitude of the Western Tasmania brand and explored the usage of some brand assets (typography, colours, photography, tone-ofvoice) to better integrate this unique experience with the region.

3 Standard Logo: The Western Compass plays on the idea that there is only one direction to go west. The identity references the compass guiding our travellers in the right direction. The core idea behind this concept has an off-beat humour in keeping with the Western Tasmanian attitude. The compass device also fits easily into a broader and more versatile communications system that draws on the language and signage of being on the road.

4 Story Logo: How To Implement The Story Logo: Kerning Examples: Kerned at +240 The type or Story Ring around the compass is made from our secondary font - Work Sans Bold. To set the size of the font, refer to the diagram below. The point size should be set to half the size of the W on the compass. 50% Kerned at +300 The system creates a united and recognisable (but flexible) identity system. The outer copy ring is versatile, allowing space for specific story stops. The central compass symbol and wordmark are the consistent core elements, creating recognition and coherence across all touchpoints. Overall the system is designed to facilitate ownership among story stops and build intrigue among visitors driving the Western Wilds. The kerning can range between +220 & +350 depending on the length of the copy. Place a - between each story with a space either side. If you end up with un-even spaces, adjust the space between stories to make the type spread evenly. See examples to the right. Kerned at +350

5 Primary Font: Side Track Taken straight from the tarmac to your screen. Using the Western Tasmanian Side Track font, we have manipulated it to reflect the style of type you see printed on roads all over the planet. The best way to achieve this is to set the type first, then outline it and stretch accordingly. Try to make it dynamic and varied as opposed to out of proportion and distorted. Rule: Don t stretch the type more than double its original size.

6 Make nature feel big & mysterious. We want to tell a story with the image. The main reason we do this is to make the photography mainly about the landscape, after all that s what will bring people to Western Tasmania. So keep the landscape at 90% and the people within in it at 10%. It also creates a sense of intrigue and mystery around the imagery. We can access some imagery from the West Coast Council.

Try to use contrasting colourways and try to stick to 2 colours as seen below.

Our tone of voice is directive and opinionated - like a compass that always points west. Whether we re describing the rugged terrain, the people who thrive on the road less travelled, or calling out the experiences not-to-be missed, we are straight up and proud of just how remote and isolated Western Tasmania is. Off-beat humour is an important part of our voice, in keeping with the Western Tasmanian attitude. We aren t funny for funny s sake, but we call out observations that are quirky or unique to the region to build intrigue about Western Tasmania. For instance, instead of: No phone signal next 50km We say No phone, no reception, nowhere If you re not lost, you re not here A guide to nowhere Est. B.C. 4569km from work Discover nowhere A road never travelled Be quiet No one else will be here You won t see a soul Straight to message bank Eat local grub Always lost More trees, less people Off the grid, on the road Nothing up ahead A longcut Adventure takes time West of centre Discover quiet Discover nothing A road less travelled

When a visitor encounters a Story Stop they need to be rewarded with a good story that piques their interest, makes the smile, brings a tear to their eye, or promotes a conversation. Specifcally, each Story Stop should... Tell a story of the location in a creative and interesting way, through an object /item, installation, artifact or even audio Can be as small as something on the back of a restaurant menu, room compendiums, through your tour commentary and interpretation materials. Can be sculptural or incorporate a installation of some form Reuse an existing structure or object(s), sculptural, landscaping, technological, structural, industrial, monumental, etc. Can be event based/linked Be iconic wilderness stories based on the site, informed by and inspiring to the local communities Appeal to a wide range of visitor groups If possible, be shareable on social media, Instagram, YouTube,Facebook, etc. Encourage visitors to seek out other Story Stops Include the Western Wilds logo STORY STOPS ARE NOT: The themes for the Story Stops need to interpret one or more of the following themes in some way. Flaura/Fauna Landscapes Indigenous Industry Conservation/Environment Each Story Stop will require separate consideration of the requirements depending on its size, scale and location (Hero/Local) and location.
