About Us

Blue Vapours Creative Studios were founded in 2002 from a ramshackle back room in Abbotsford. Since then we’ve moved offices, expanded, contracted, expanded again, given up alcohol, taken alcohol up, burnt out two coffee machines and a grinder, killed three colour laser printers and had some ripper corporate events.

In between all that we've done some work we're really proud of. Explore our particulars below or get in touch if you’d like to get us involved in your project.

B.Design (Industrial Design) RMIT

Jane has been graphic designing since the 90’s, when there were only 18 typefaces and no one else knew how to turn a computer on.

Her strengths have always been in drawing and colour use, while necessity and curiosity drove the acquisition of skills in brand development, document layout, web design, wayfinding, animation and photography. Initially working in-house in various Melbourne product development and design companies – Skansen, Glow Zone, NuColorVue and IMC, she spent a number of years freelancing with ACP and Pacific Magazines before dedicating her energy into the Blue Vapours Creative Studios in 2001.

With over eighteen  years of running a professional services design studio, she has evolved into an international artist, winning an art prize in Rome: the Malamegi Lab 10 New Collection Prize.  See all of that over here!
