I’m loving this series and it’s wonderful to see so many talented designers in Australia. I’m Australian but I’ve lived in the Middle East for 10 years so it’s been great to come back and see so much talent here (I’m currently in Melbourne) and to read about it here.

The only thing that I’m finding disappointing about Australian design though is that everything is so nostalgic, melancholy, so retro – Australians generally (not only in design, but especially in design) are focusing way too much on their past at the moment, which is a bit dull. They need to look to the future more.

And I have to say if I see one more Matryoshka doll (so very 3 years ago) or cupcake (why?!?! Grow up everyone!), I’m going to scream! Apart from those two minor things, there’s lots of amazing work being done here and it’s wonderful to see you covering it.
