In celebration of World Industrial Design Day on 29 June 2010, we invite industrial designers from South Australia to participate in ‘Hung out to dry’. This event intends to raise the overall awareness of industrial design through the understanding of our discipline.
To demonstrate how industrial designers can solve social and environmental issues, local industrial designers and industrial design firms have been invited to design coat hangers made from recycled material.
We are asking aspiring South Australian industrial designers to be part of this show. A small number of allocated positions have been made available for the right candidates; this creates a unique opportunity to be able to have your work displayed alongside well known designers.
THEME OVERVIEW
"Industrial Design: Humane solutions for a resilient world" is the 2010 global theme for World Industrial Design Day. ‘Hung out to dry’ is a platform to stimulate discussion of this theme and the importance of improving the understanding of industrial design.
