Crafting a Path

to Reconciliation

RAP Documents:

Reconciliation Action Plans (RAPs) are not just documents—they are commitments. They lay the foundation for fostering mutual respect, understanding, and collaboration between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and the broader Australian community. At Smyth Studio, we specialise in turning these commitments into visually compelling and culturally respectful narratives.

  • For organisations aiming to deepen their engagement with First Nations communities, a well-crafted RAP document is indispensable. It serves as a blueprint for action and reflects your genuine commitment to reconciliation. Through our design, we help you:

    • Emphasize Respect & Recognition: Present your initiatives in a way that honours Indigenous cultures and contributions.

    • Enhance Engagement: Foster a deeper connection with stakeholders by showcasing your dedication to meaningful change.

    • Inspire Action: Motivate employees and partners with a visually engaging document that drives the message of unity and cooperation.

01✹ Purposeful Design
why it matters

  • Creating RAP documents involves more than just aesthetic design; it requires a profound respect for cultural nuances and an authentic representation of Indigenous art. Our approach includes:

    • Indigenous Art Integration: Incorporate traditional and contemporary Indigenous artwork that resonates with the themes of your RAP.

    • Culturally Informed Design: Each element is thoughtfully chosen to reflect the spirit of reconciliation and partnership.

    • Collaborative Creation: We work closely with your team and Indigenous consultants to ensure every part of the document is culturally accurate and sensitive.

02✹ Cultural Integrity
what makes it unique

  • Our service extends beyond design to provide a comprehensive package that includes consultation, design, and digital adaptation of your RAP documents. You’ll receive:

    • Bespoke Document Design: A tailor-made RAP that aligns with both your branding and reconciliation goals.

    • Digital and Print Ready Formats: Versatile design solutions that are effective in both digital and physical formats.

    • Ongoing Support: Options for future updates and revisions as your reconciliation journey evolves.

    By entrusting us with your RAP documents, you're not just getting a design service; you're gaining a partner in your journey toward reconciliation.
