Cathyann Coady: Is there a pill I can take for that?
17 MayThis slideshow requires JavaScript.
Cathyann Coady’s ‘pill’ sculptures exist on the precipice between fact and fiction, reality and illusion, well-being and ill-health. The sophistication in their conception and their technical accuracy allows us to immediately notice what might have been previously ignored. Despite the common presence of pills in our lives to quickly arrest all sorts of pains and disorders, the subtle elegance of their design may have inadvertently escaped us. Until now. Here we have the most ordinary of throwaway objects being cleverly and emphatically inverted in terms of its value and artistic status……read more

The Design Files Open House: Final Day!
4 Dec
THE DESIGN FILES OPEN HOUSE is a unique collaboration between The Design Files and The Project Agency. YES it’s a pop-up. But it’s not in a vacant shop front or a shipping container. For one week in December we’re transforming a stunning residential home in Fitzroy, Melbourne, to create a temporary retail event unlike any other. A natural progression for Australia’s most popular design blog, THE DESIGN FILES OPEN HOUSE is the ultimate stylised Melbourne home, with an added bonus – everything is for sale! From bedlinen to books, artwork, furniture, kitchenware and lighting, each and every item can be purchased on the spot. We have carefully selected a group of local designers, artists, makers and retailers whose beautiful wares will fill this space. There’ll be a cafe on the roof deck, a flower stall by a fabulous local floral designer, cooking demonstrations in the modern open-plan kitchen, and events every day and night ….more.
