The importance of Australia's industrial and manufacturing history is represented throughout the built landscape. Structures provide a visual link with our collective past.

Cities such as Melbourne and Geelong were the manufacturing and industrial powerhouses of Victoria and Australia. These industrial buildings are reminders of a time when what was produced within was also expressed through some beautiful industrial designs such as this beautiful mid 20th Century typeface and facade.

Whilst many industrial buildings are demolished, somehow some survive time and the wrecking ball. Throughout my 20+ years of being a photographer I've dedicated much time documenting industrial buildings all over Australia, from Tasmania to the sugar cane factories of Far North Queensland.

Long walks exploring the built environment are my happy space...I sat on the hill and marvelled at this beautiful design. The drop shadow from the typeface was just divine! If all I captured this day was this scene I would have gone home happy!
