The Worst of Perth in China – Visual Enhancement

Posted on June 2, 2009 by AHC McDonald

Two efforts to combine the visual, the sculptural and the advertorial in Nanjing China. The first one should have been an Aussino Steakhouse, but wasn’t. The second is from an Audit University. Could those fingers really hit those keys? And … Continue reading →

Posted on June 1, 2009 by AHC McDonald
