Celebrating Craft at the 2026 National Print Awards
Earlier this month, we headed to Brisbane for the 2026 National Print Awards – an evening celebrating the craft, creativity and innovation happening across the Australian print industry.
We were lucky enough to have four projects shortlisted as finalists, so we arrived feeling excited, hopeful and looking forward to catching up with old friends and familiar faces from across the industry.
By the end of the night, we were absolutely thrilled to take home Gold for the Aurecon Design Brochure, produced in collaboration with Prime Collective.
This was a special project from the start, the kind that reminds us why we love what we do. It combines beautiful design with plenty of craftsmanship, problem-solving and attention to detail. From letterpress and digital print, edge painting, mounted covers and a whole lot of care from the people who brought it together, the result is a piece we’re incredibly proud to have helped bring to life.


We were also thrilled to see three other Bambra-produced projects recognised as finalists:
• Ocean Alley Limited Edition Posters for Sony Music Entertainment Australia
• Better Future Awards Trophies
• Gaggenau Product Brochure for KR/D Studio
Reflecting on the evening, our Bambra Director John Wanless said:
“Awards are great, but they’re really just a reflection of the people behind the work. Every project recognised this year involved a lot of skill, care and teamwork. I’m very proud of what our team achieves – every project represents countless decisions, adjustments, proofing sessions, press checks, finishing touches and problem-solving moments along the way.”
To our clients and creative partners, thank you for trusting us with your ideas and allowing us to be part of bringing them to life.
We’re excited to see what next year holds! Bring it on!
