Bretton has formerly been the Art Director of The Big Issue magazine, designed for ClimateWorks, a leading climate change thinktank housed within the Monash Sustainable Development Institute / Monash University, created exhibitions for Museums Victoria, produced work for the inaugural Global Landscapes Forum (CIFOR), worked at internationally renowned design studio Inkahoots, and has also previously been a Typography teacher at Griffith University.

He passionately believes in the ability of design to empower, excite, challenge and inform. And to address and engage in socially, environmentally and culturally significant areas.

Having over 15 years experience specialising in work for the community, cultural and arts sectors, he believes in implementing a robust and critical approach to the design and visual communication process. To ultimately achieve memorable, appropriate and unique outcomes for any given project or job.
