Graphic design student at The Bremer Institute of TAFE, Anthony Beggs, has picked up two gold awards in the prestigious national Southern Cross Package Design Awards.
Nineteen-year old Anthony entered and won two categories in the Awards in which he designed a Retail Paper Bag sponsored by Australian Paper and a new POSTpak product sponsored by Australia Post.
His retail paper bag design targeted the hardware industry and included three triangular shaped bags that transferred the weight to the sides of the bags, making them more suitable to carry heavier objects.
Anthony's second winning entry was a POSTpak for transporting ink cartridges and other small objects, which is returnable.
Design students from more than 30 training institutions throughout Australia contest the Awards each year. Anthony receives a $500 cash prize for each of his winning entires and he and Graphic Design teacher, Rosemary Yule will be flown to Melbourne for the presentation ceremony on October 6.
