With just over 100 days to go until Melbourne Indesign, registrations for visitors have now opened!
April 30th, 2014
Melbourne Indesign is a trade event with a difference. Held biannually since 2004 (previously named ‘Saturday in Design’), it brings together Melbourne’s four design precincts: Collingwood, Fitzroy, Melbourne CBD and Richmond, with design trails connecting activated showrooms and pop-up spaces, showcasing the best new design from across Australia and around the world.

These include an exquisite rug from Designer Rugs, with more prizes to be announced soon.
