Graduation

Graduation marks one chapter closing and another beginning, and the first wall in a new flat or first office cubicle is the natural place to mark it. Our graduation collection brings together personalised diploma display frames, city-map prints of the university town, motivational quote canvases and photograph-based pieces from the day on the lawn.

Every print is made in Australia and posted ready to hang. Send us the diploma photograph, the campus address or a snapshot from the cap-and-gown ceremony and we’ll build something the new graduate will keep on the wall for years.

The graduation gift that follows them into adult life

The first wall in a first share-house, the first office cubicle, the first apartment after the master's degree — that's where our graduation prints tend to end up. We see a lot of orders come in across November and December (Australian academic calendar) and again in May and June for the northern-hemisphere graduates and post-graduate Aussies. The strongest sellers are personalised diploma-and-photograph display canvases, university-town map prints (Melbourne CBD, Carlton, North Sydney, Brisbane West End, Perth's CBD) and contemporary motivational typography pieces in oak frames.

Personalised graduation prints — diplomas, dates and ceremony photos

Send us a photograph of the graduate on the day — cap raised, parchment in hand, parents smiling alongside — and we'll print it on canvas, in a framed surround, or as a floating-frame piece. The personalisation team can typeset the graduate's name, the university and the date underneath the photograph in a restrained classical style if you'd like. For graduates who're modest about face-on-the-wall prints, we offer a sleeker option — a typographic print of the university name, the degree, and the year, set in oak or black frame and shipped ready to hang. Both styles are quietly popular as parent-to-graduate gifts each November.

Popular graduation art styles

City maps of the university town are perennial — the streets they cycled to lectures, the cafe near the library, the share-house suburb. Motivational typography ("You did the work", "Now go and build something", short Stoic-style lines) lands well with engineering, business and law graduates. Arts and humanities graduates tend toward vintage literary prints, framed botanicals and contemporary line-drawing portraits. Medical and nursing graduates often receive anatomy or vintage medical-illustration prints. Browse the full wall art catalogue for the wider range.

Delivery to home, campus or share-house

Standard production is two to four business days with express courier delivery available Australia-wide. We can ship directly to the graduate's home, the parents' address, or a campus address if you'd like to surprise them in the week before the ceremony. Every print arrives ready to hang in a corner-protected carton, gift-ready out of the box. Add a printed handwritten gift card at checkout.
