Experience the transformative impact of collaboration and sustainability as Forward Focus unveils the ingenious creations of tomorrow’s generation. In this exhibition young students from the Hester Hornbrook Academy, under the mentorship of Melbourne-based creatives, present their innovative chairs crafted entirely from waste materials and limited tools.

Curated by Zachary Frankel and hosted in the Tait Melbourne Showroom, the exhibition is the result of a two-day workshop providing a unique chance for the students of the Academy to support each other, brainstorm as a collective and put together interesting and thought provoking pieces to explore the pillars of Melbourne Design Week 2024: ecology, ethics and energy.
