Grace’s design references the skate centre by encouraging viewers to ‘Just roll with it’, and features roller skates on the front and rear of the box, retro flowers, and bright colours to cheer up passersby. The wild and wiggly blue lace from the skate even recalls the Brisbane river! Grace designed this to signify the local landmark’s ties to both Stafford and the wider Brisbane community.
As this box is located in Stafford, Grace sourced ideas from the Brisbane subreddit to get ideas for her design, asking Staffordians, past and present, about their favourite places and memories of the area. The beloved Stafford Skate Centre was the clear winner, providing a lot of nostalgia for many respondents!
