The WORKSHOPPED 16 design exhibition is a platform for both new and established product, furniture and lighting designers. This year, in recognition of the demand for places in the exhibition, WORKSHOPPED will curate a student exhibition, and a separate exhibition for professional, established designers.

The WORKSHOPPED 16 design exhibition asks designers to explain how their design puts the human experience first, and how the human experience has been considered or captured in the design. Applications to exhibit in WORKSHOPPED 16 are now open.

WORKSHOPPED plays a key role in the support and promotion of Australian product design. The annual WORKSHOPPED exhibition is now in its 16th year and has presented the work of over 400 Australian designers through 15 exhibitions, and been viewed by over 600,000 people.

WORKSHOPPED 16 exhibition will be held at Supa Centa Moore Park, Sydney, from August 4–22 August.
