QUT Industrial Design Expo

Post-graduate industrial design students on show in Brisbane

November 14th, 2007

Following a 20-year tradition, Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane Australia is again getting ready to hold their annual Industrial Design Exhibition.

Showcasing the work of 22 post-graduate students from the Graduate Diploma of Industrial Design, the exhibition not only promotes industrial design, but it allows visitors to view the designs of the next batch of Australian designers, before they hit the big-time.

The launching event also provides a platform for the students to meet and network with the industry they are about to enter.

The evening launch will take place at the Brisbane Powerhouse on Thursday November 29, with the exhibition running from the 27-30 November.
