Presented by the Design Institute of Australia (DIA) and moderated by industrial designer Nila Rezaei, this discussion explores the work of four local creatives who place materials at the core of their practice. Whether exploring the properties of marble as a poetic device, implementing regenerative solutions at the nexus of biology and design, or finding sustainable and ethical ways of engaging with materiality, all hope to leave a lasting positive impact.

This event is for design professionals, researchers, sustainability advocates, cultural enthusiasts and those interested in the transformative power of design in shaping our material, cultural and technological futures.

As part of the DIA’s Accredited Designer program, DIA offers Continuing Professional Development (CPD) through its learning resources. Attendance at this event is worth two CPD points.
