The VIVID 2017 Award winners were announced last week, at an award ceremony held at Decor + Design and AIFF exhibition in Melbourne. Selected from a shortlisted 44 products, the winners include James Walsh and Ash Allen's Igneous light, an elegant bike rack by Adrian Olassau and a task light which pays homage to ancient boat building techniques.
"The most pleasant surprise was probably recently when I had a chance to pause late one night in the workshop and survey everything we were working on at that moment. I felt proud of what we were making." ADR talks to maker Alex Earl, who discusses the intricacies of designing sound and lighting objects and pushing the boundaries of materials.
"I like to surround myself with objects of intrigue. Much of my work stems from scraps of potential that I notice in my daily life and travels." Wilson discusses his inspiration, working with architects, and his dream collaborator.
ADR looks back at the winning projects from IDEA’s Object: Furniture and Lighting category over the last five years. This retrospective provides some insight into the evolution of the typology and what has defined it over the past half-decade.
