In a night dedicated to planning and preparing for Melbourne Indesign, Woods Bagot played host to a relaxed yet exciting evening. Last night saw Woods Bagot’s Josh Carmody outlining the ten things he personally looks for at design events and is and is looking forward to at Melbourne Indesign. Also speaking was Jess Wolodkowizc, trade show expert strategist from The Exhibit Company who gave our exhibitors some tips and practical advice on how to make the most their your time at Melbourne Indesign 2016.

With catering by Melbourne’s Fig + Salt and finishing touches by Local Gatherings, the night was a great success and only increased our hype and excitement for the event. Great thanks to our special guests and gracious hosts Woods Bagot – we’ll see you at Melbourne Indesign 2016!

Alex Bain on finding his anchor in Herman Miller’s Aeron Chair

Dipped in integrity: The profound depth of Aeron Chair’s extended palette

Aeron Chair’s new shades, Nightfall and Jasper, arrive with a sense of quiet cohesion – no bells and whistles, no loud technicolour; just two timeless, perfectly versatile near-neutrals. But the new hues aren’t just about colour – and their significance is much more profound than their surface-level subtlety might suggest.

Elton Group’s $5,000 Think Good Micro-Grant is calling for designers and makers with a bold idea

Late night rethinks, endless material testing and prototyping, half-finished or abandoned projects – the work behind-the-scenes work is often where ideas come undone. Elton Group’s Think Good Micro-Grant – a $5,000 annual fund now open for applications – exists to back this kind of unseen effort.
