Milan Review 2015 | Melbourne, Jardan

Last Tuesday night, in Sydney and Melbourne, we held our Indesign Milan Review – at Spence & Lyda in Sydney and Jardan in Melbourne. Here we look at the Melbourne discussion.

At the Melbourne review, held at Jardan, our panelists discussed their experiences at the fair, offering our audiences an engaging, interactive, and meaningful report.

The focus was on what Australian design + Architecture can take from the world’s biggest furniture fair – from aesthetic trends to commercial developments, which our panelists Narelle Cuthbert, of Plus Architecture; Leo Terrando, of SJB; and Celina Clarke, of ISM Objects – led by Alice Blackwood, Melbourne Editor, Indesign Media – discussed with conviction.

It was a great evening of discussion and opinion, and good company. Thanks again to Jardan for being such wonderful hosts

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.

A collective vision: The whimsical workplace with Intuit, COX and MillerKnoll

Stepping into Intuit’s Sydney workplace certainly doesn’t feel like walking into an office. Why? In this film, we discover that, when joy takes precedence as a design driver, even a high-performing commercial CBD headquarters can feel like an intuitive wonderland that invites employees to choose their own adventure.
