Blackwood 8 is an organisation dedicated to raising funds towards the understanding, treatment and cure about cancer. Support this cause by attending the Gala Cocktail Evening on 21st October.

September 5th, 2011

Blackwood 8 is a group of business people based in Wonga Park, Victoria. We share the common bond of having a friend diagnosed with a brain tumour. Initially, as a community, we have sought to support our friend and her family in a variety of personal and practical ways. However, we recognise there are many more people in our wider community suffering from this disease, and we want to do more. This is why we formed Blackwood 8.

Our mission is to bring the Community together in a fun and positive environment with the goal of raising funds for the purpose of prevention, treatment and cure of cancer.

The 2011 Gala Ball will be held on Friday 21st October, Manningham Function Centre, Doncaster. The night will comprise of a fabulous 3 course dinner, drinks, guest speakers, warm and inviting surroundings, silent and live auctions and a sensational live band (featuring ex-Skyhooks members and Wilbur Wilde).

WORKPLACE :: A @Millikenfloorsanz carpet sample pr

WORKPLACE :: A @Millikenfloorsanz carpet sample provided inspiration for the colourful fit-out of the Ultimate Security head office in Sydney. @inspiredspacesaus and Milliken closely collaborated to bring the vibrant vision to life.

Inspiration can sometimes spring from surprising places – and for the vibrant fit-out for the new Ultimate Security headquarters in Sydney’s Concord, it came from a Milliken carpet sample. The brief to interior design studio Inspired Spaces was to create an open-plan workplace to serve the company both now and in the future, with additional space that would be attractive as a leasing destination and allow for expansion.

The result is a visually exciting scheme across the 2,000-square-metre space, elevated through a bold approach to colour. The monochromatic backdrop – think greys and whites offset by graphic black crittal-style window frames and shelving for verdant greenery – comes to life through pops of warm oranges, yellow, and reds that echo the colours in the Milliken carpet.

Milliken’s Creo range evokes the famous street art of Brazil and – in keeping with the company’s focus on giving designers choices that allow them to express themselves – is offered in three colourways and three pattern families.
