Urbis Design Day 2013


Last Saturday Simon and I had the pleasure of attending Urbis Design Day. The day is a collective collaboration between around a dozen different design venues in the city - from industrial to product design and interiors, it's a chance for design studios and retailers to showcase the latest and greatest and promote their products and services (as well a fair share of fun interactive installations and great food!) 

Everything I had heard about this event shot well above my expectations. 
It was well and truely a pleasure to attend and be totally inspired as well as fed, watered and driven to each location. 

Amazing chair from Backhouse
 Visited the BLOC store in Mt Eden and fell in love with all the beautiful minimalist objects by Douglas and Bec (in collaboration with Kate Sylvester). Think pale woods, ceramics and leather in dreamy hues. yummy. If you haven't heard of them before they are well work a peek!
 Sneaky selfie in the mirrored exhibition space for the Design Assembly installation.
 This is probably the longest post ever but I couldn't cull anymore photos! If you're ever in Auckland around this time next year I would highly recommend Urbis Design day - a great way to be inspired and see the city.
