Workshopped15

Overview

Returning this August to tickle the fancies of design nerds Sydney-wide is WORKSHOPPED15 — the 15th iteration of one of Australia’s longest running annual design exhibitions. Showcasing the work of emerging and established Aussie designers, this year the folk from WORKSHOPPED are calling for work that considers design in architecture, looking for designers who are reshaping, redefining and reinventing materials, techniques and forms.

Expect the full shebang — complete with pendant lights, fancy fans and other assorted space enhancers — to take over the Supa Centa at Moore Park from August 6-23. (For insiders, there’s also a VIP opening night on August 5.)

With over 50 designers bringing their best stuff, the WORKSHOPPED exhibition is the granddaddy of Australian design expos; it was here that Kate Stokes debuted her now-ubiquitous Coco Pendant back in 2010. All of which to say that you’ll want to be there — this is where next big design things are born.
