The Brazilian Consulate General in Sydney, Australia had organised a stand at The Gateway Travel Show during March 1 - 3, 2002. Being held at Homebush Bay, former venue of the 2000 Olympics. This fair offered the consul a platform from which to promote Brazil as a vibrant and viable tourist destination to the tourist industry at large, and the general public. " ...We deeply appreciate your contribution to the design and presentation of the stand. We have considered it to be highly professional. The quality of your work was beyond our expectation. ..." Working with an extremely tight budget I consulted on the stand setup, and created its centre piece ­ a large foam-core map with visual representations from each region of the country.     Left; The almost 2m in height center piece for the Tourism and Trade Fair 2002 stand.         Left; Preparation begins for the Tourism and Trade Fair 2002.           Right; The Brazilian stand proved popular and declared a success overall.
