This year has been quiet in terms of events but we are having our first event of the year very soon, stay tuned for the invite!

Just wanting to share that the EOI for Adelaide Design Week (ADW) 2026 is open now. Some of you might know that the first ADW happened last year, sadly without much industrial design representation. Let's try to change that this year!

If you have a studio/workshop it would be cool to have an open day to showcase your work/space. If you have any ideas of an event/ exhibition please comment or reach out and we can brainstorm some ideas. Or if you would like to collaborate with designers in other disciplines in Adelaide, or volunteer to be part of ADW committee you can also register your interest. All details about the EOI and event in website link below:

https://adelaidedesignweek.com.au/eoi/

Looking forward to the ADW this year!
