As internationally acclaimed guests fuelled the minds of WA’s design devotees, Indesign launched its newest baby – Contemporary.

When The Design Circus rolled in to Perth from December 1-3, it drew crowds of design lovers, left many with a newfound appreciation of authentic, original creations, and also provided the ultimate backdrop for the launch of Indesign Media Asia Pacific’s latest online title – Contemporary.

Hosted by Mobilia and curated by Pepe Garcia of Culdesac in Valencia, Spain, the second year of The Design Circus welcomed very special guests Nipa Doshi and Jonathan Levien of Doshi Levien Studio (London), Xavier Mañosa of Apparatu (Barcelona), and Nina Masó of Santa & Cole (also Barcelona).

Visitors were treated to a display of stunning pieces that included the Roll Chair by Patricia Urquiola for Kettal, Rabari 3 Rug by Doshi Levien for Nanimarquina, Monkey Side Table by Jaime Hayon for BD Barcelona, the Follow Me Lamp by Imma Bermúdez for Marset, and much, much more.
