Designers show their products for the first time on home ground in our annual Workshopped exhibition. We’re always looking for the next product that we can help bring to market. WORKSHOPPED12. This year’s exhibition will be one of the single largest events of Sydney Design 12 co-presented by the Powerhouse Museum.
INSPIRING: Now in its twelve year, WORKSHOPPED design exhibition has become a permanent and widely anticipated fixture of Sydney Design 12. Co-presented with the Powerhouse Museum, the free exhibition will showcase over 60 designers from across Australia and New Zealand.
Many of the designers have successfully exhibited as part of WORKSHOPPED in previous years and return for WS12, recognising the importance of the prestigious event for showcasing their designs
VITAL: The WORKSHOPPED exhibition is a vital platform for nurturing Australian design excellence and launching the careers of designers. Once again we welcome the Powerhouse Museum in co-presenting this dynamic forum. The WORKSHOPPED exhibition and the highly anticipated opening night, will attract leading figures in design, architecture, manufacturing and media. More than 800 invited guests would be attending the Opening Night.
VIABLE: WORKSHOPPED exhibitions assist in sustaining a creative community. Before the first WORKSHOPPED exhibition in 2001, designers had few avenues in getting their designs in front of the general public. Creating and maintaining successful commercial relationships with industry and the marketplace is also extremely difficult. Many designers who have exhibited at WORKSHOPPED exhibitions have their works in commercial production and exposed to potential buyers. The WORKSHOPPED SHOP presents products designed by Australian designers and available to both wholesale and retail customers.
PROTOTYPE: WORKSHOPPED is more than an exhibition. It’s an opportunity to assist designers in taking their designs beyond the prototype. WORKSHOPPED aims to assist designers in investigating manufacture, management, distribution and retail opportunities.
Our Aim is: “To nurture Australian design excellence and facilitate successful commercial relationships between designers, industry and the market, both locally and internationally.”
