Australia was one of the world’s first countries to ban the importation of the incandescent light bulb.

In recent times we have seen an explosion in lighting products aimed at replacing the incandescent lamp. At first there were compact fluorescent lamps, and now there is a credible LED alternative with high efficiency, dimming, nice colour and a 25-year life expectancy.

How will light fixture design move to keep up with this development?

Designers with a passion for light, sustainability and new technology are invited to create something beautiful using a stylish plug, cable and the LED lamp.

Entries will be displayed in an exhibition for the duration of the festival. Selected entries will form a permanent installation, which will transform Donkey Wheel House forever, an example of how design can put something back into the community and really make a difference.

Bates Smart and the build-to-rent model for city living

That’s it. It’s a no-brainer. Move to central Melbourne and rent at LIV Munro where the apartments are beautifully conceived and the amenities are beyond outstanding. Build-to-rent is making waves and, through excellent design, the lifestyle of this new way of living is elevated to another dimension.
