Starting out as just a visual inspiration blog on Instagram, they have plans to develop this into a creative platform promoting not only themselves and their current projects but their inspirations, day-to-day activities and charitable work too.
Driving themselves forward as fresh, recent-grad creatives with a current and playful yet professional approach, the boys will be offering themselves independently and as a collaborative duo - available for freelance and commissions.
With plans to push their works into a more charitable realm - they aim to raise money and produce fund-raiser projects for charities such as Cancer Research, Breast Cancer Research and Help for Heroes. Eventually feeding into their big travel plan, set to begin in April next year!
“We both visited Thailand in the summer and could not get enough it - the people, the scenery, the lifestyle! We knew straight away this was somewhere we wanted to explore in more depth and definitely allow to inspire and drive our personal projects into something more intriguing and eye-opening for viewers potentially wanting to visit more of the far east.
After hearing the endless stories about the mistreatment of wildlife (such as elephants in the tourism industry out there) but also the small yet friendly communities, and beautiful yet challenging environments they face on a day-to-day basis; really put it into perspective for us how we can use this fire in our bellies to get out there and capture this insane amount of content and possibility - as well as potentially do something great for them at the same time!”
They plan to take the leap across the globe and plunge into Asia come April 2019, which will then involve up to 3 months of exploring, networking and documenting everything they come across - from stories of small communities hard at work, to heart-warming families living out in the wilderness; from the truth about elephants within the tourism industry and what places like Chang-Mai are doing to reduce this, to what really lies within the crazy back streets of Bangkok and how the ever-emerging tattoo culture has evolved into this new connected world we live in.
On their list so far includes countries such as Singapore, Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam and Bali; but there's definitely a lot more info and content to come yet, so don’t worry!
After this period in Asia, the VS boys hope to settle into the Aus way of life for a bit - focusing on re-building funds, whilst gathering and reflecting on all they have seen and worked on in their 3 months out on the road. Continuing to drive this content into fresh audiences through their social medias and links made, as well as building new circles within the Australian design scene too.
“Australia will signify a new chapter, a chapter filled with creative opportunity through our travels whilst networking with local creatives and studios and just seeing how we can fit into the scene with what we have at that time.”
Anyone interested in what the VS Project have in-store can get involved or simply say hi via our personal emails at this time.
