MERRY CHRISTMAS





....Merry Christmas from the team at Arketype 


Early next year will greet us with a trip to the Flinders Ranges to install components for an upgrade to the Wilpena Pound Visitor Centre, as well as a trip to Meningie to continue work on an interpretive trail. 


A new senior staff member will start work on the 1st February ...stay tuned to find out who!


We are also extremely excited to be working on the design for a major sales and information centre early in the year.


Happy and safe holiday to all

BOMBAY SAPPHIRE - TOP 10!



Designer maker John Quan is currently in Sydney for the awards night for the Bombay Sapphire Design Discovery Award. John is a top 10 finalist with his flexible desk lamp - good luck John!

John is heavily inspired by the likes of Ferran Adria, Heston Blumenthal and Herve This. Through their re-evaluation and ongoing experimentation with food, Quan believes they have created ground breaking work that often shatters people’s notion of what food should be.

John has been working with us in a design and production capacity over the last few months.

DECEMBER 2010

 

















Work in progress - reception conter, Laminate and Timber veneer work about to start!


We approach the end of the year with some exciting projects on the go. 

The workshop is a buzz with the production of a 5 metre reception counter and the design studio up to their armpits in signage style guides. 

There is an exciting year around the corner too!
