Out and about in Sydney: Sydney Design
If you love design and happen to be in Sydney between the 3rd and 18th of August, you might like to book yourself in for some of the excellent talks, tours and workshops lined up for this year's Sydney Design.
Now in its 16th year, more than 75 events across the city will explore the theme, 'Design re-think - can clever design save the world?'. (I bloody well hope so!)
My top picks? I'll be making a beeline for:
The retrospective exhibition on 'George Nelson: Architect, Writer, Designer, Teacher' at the Powerhouse Museum. Nelson is the genius behind mid-20th century design classics such as the Ball Clock, Coconut Chair and Marshmallow Sofa (see above; photos courtesy of Vitra).
One of the guided walks led by the Australian Architecture Association.
