There’s excitement in the air as showrooms team up with Brisbane designers for the very first Project at Brisbane Indesign.
March 26th, 2012
The Project will be a part of Brisbane Indesign for the first time this year, and local designers have jumped at the chance to work with participating showrooms to create unique installations especially for the event. The theme, Common Thread, has inspired an enthusiastic group of designers eager to explore the fusion of creative industries that epitomises Brisbane Indesign, and the links that tie them all together.
