DQ is proud to present the very first instalment in its new video series, taking stories off the page and bringing them to life through interactive media.

For this project they’ve teamed up with a very special sponsor, Australian Workstation Manufacturers, and talented director and filmmaker Lisa Kappel.

The Repair Workshops is a really inspiring project, dealing with the implications of waste and refuse, and how this can be addressed through simple ingenuity and curiosity.

It was held in Australia for the first time, at Donkey Wheel House in Melbourne earlier this year. You might have read about it on Indesignlive here and here. This video takes us behind the scenes at the workshops, speaking to the amazing creatives involved in the project and showing some of their amazing creations!

Stay tuned for more video instalments from DQ.

Powerful presence, silent service: Gaggenau’s Dishwasher 400 Series

In design, the concept of absence is particularly powerful – it’s the abundant potential of deliberate non-presence that amplifies the impact of what is. And it is this realm of sophisticated subtraction that Gaggenau’s Dishwasher 400 Series so generously – and quietly – occupies.
