Stories In Form — Henry Wilson
Friday January 27 2012
Welcome to the final installment of our series profiling the designers featured in our exhibition Stories In Form, on at Object Gallery from 27 January — 24 March 2012. Click here to find out more information about the exhibition, and click here to catch up on the rest of the series, including an introduction from curator Jacqueline Power.
Henry Wilson is an award-winning designer with his roots entrenched in responsible and sustainable work. Most recently, Wilson won the Bombay Sapphire Design Discovery Award, taking the prize for his versatile A-Joint. For Stories In Form, Wilson has provided a twist on a classic design, as well as a new object housed in familiarity whilst creating something totally new.
Broached Colonial
Friday November 11 2011
Last night (Thursday 10 November) was the Sydney opening of the inaugural Broached Commissions exhibition, Broached Colonial, at Paramount House after a week on show in Melbourne earlier this month. Broached Commissions is an annual international design collaboration that takes as its inspiration a period or event in Australia’s history, crafting the design responses around the human and industrial stories of that time.
Broached Commissions is an initiative from creative director Lou Weis and Vincent Aiello, the co-owner of Euroluce. Three designers — Trent Jansen, Adam Goodrum and Charles Wilson — form a founding core, with Adam Goodrum, Lucy McRae and Chen Lu making up the team for Broached Colonial.
