FRIDAY FABULOUS FIVE

 
 
VISIT
Melbourne Design Week invited participants to "design the world you want", and the creators, curators, makers and thinkers filling out this year's program – at the NGV and other sites across the city until April 5 – have all responded with gusto, probing the potential for material culture to radically alter our reality. For 'Future Inheritance' at Truce in Collingwood, art director Marsha Golemac called on 20 artists – including Jessica Murtagh, whose work is shown – to consider how value might one day be ascribed to objects that seem humdrum today, revealing the ways in which tokens and talismans can expose truths about our current moment long after it has passed.

Furniture purveyor Cult is at the forefront in helping customers sustain, retain and maintain classic design, and its Melbourne Design Week exhibition 'Cultivated' is a fabulous journey through the life cycle of a piece. Statistics reveal Australians discard 800,000 sofas and 1.65 million dining tables yearly. The innovative Cultivated program was established in 2013 by Cult's founder, authenticity and sustainability activist Richard Munao, offering buy-back, refurbishment and recycling services for aged or end-of-life design. From rejuvenated mid-century chairs to reignited 1950s lighting, Cultivated plays an important role in the circular economy of authentic designer furniture – as shown in the retrospective and accompanying short film.
