I am always so inspired by simple ideas, clever out-of-the-box thinking, conceptual interpretations and poetic responses to the brief. This is precisely why I was so glad to receive these images from Ben Edwards of Edwards Moore, Melbourne based design studio who’s work you may recall from my post earlier this year.

Edwards Moore have created a landscape of woodchips for Melbourne Fringe Furniture Exhibition recently held at Substation Gallery in Newport, Melbourne. Responding to the Fringe theme ‘The City has a Face and the Country has a Soul’, EM‘s giant terrain ran the entire length of the gallery space, forming a dynamic unifying platform on which the furniture was exhibited.

Easy, simple, affordable, sustainable, unexpected, unpretentious and clever. Well done guys.

 

 


“People thrive best in environments that have other forms of life around, and flourish in spaces that are more like habitats and we thought it might be fun to bring the landscape to the substation” – Edwards Moore.
