Brooms Head
Nestled in the heathland of Yuraygir National Park, Brooms Head was originally known as Cakora Point. The name Brooms Head was first used for this beachfront village in 1870 when a broom thought to have come from the wreck of the schooner ‘Eureka’, was washed up on the beach.
The design is based on ocean waves and uses a large casual font for the drop capital headings. Text on the tourist signage is medium density and the large image in the top right hand corner of the signs has been ‘photoshopped’. This was a design decision for aesthetics and necessity. A filter of ‘paint daubs’ has been applied to give interest, to allow for the placement of a spectacular image and to maintain a beautifully rendered high resolution ‘LARGE’ graphic.
