A minimalist exhibit design showcasing the Gazzda furniture range, inspired by its fine frames and handwoven qualities, utilizing sustainable materials for a temporary installation that emphasizes simplicity and functionality.

With a 6m x 6m footprint and a simple brief - introduce the new Gazzda furniture range - the possibilities were endless. Keen to tap in to the essence of the range we honed in on the fine and skeletal-like frames of the furniture as inspiration for the exhibit design. There is a lightness and a restrained quality to the range, requiring ‘just enough’ substance as is necessary, without overly intricate detailing or decoration. The string details of the chair and coffee table suggest handwoven qualities and the leather buckles express simple and vernacular techniques. The dressed pine portal frames reflect the simplicity of the furniture and the expressed connection points are similarly considered yet simple. The rectilinear frames contrast the more organic forms of the furniture. Given the temporary nature of the installation, there was a desire to be mindful of the type and quantity of material used and to minimise overall wastage. The standard profile timber members and simple bolted construction minimised production resources (as all items were ‘off the shelf’) and at the conclusion of the Fair, the installation could be disassembled and parts reused.

“John Liu and Steph Richardson of Inbetween Architecture have delivered us a truly remarkable and beautiful home. From the outset, they took time and listened to what makes our family of three tick, our backgrounds, our interests and what we wanted from a home. We already knew we liked Inbetween’s work. It is understated, yet so clever in form, proportion and use of space. That topped with creativity we could never dream of is what has made our house a wonderful place to be. With any building project, there are challenges and ours came with a few. John and Steph navigated through the tricky planning, heritage overlay requirements of the existing dwelling and meticulously resolved any technical challenges that came with the new design. All dealt with before building commenced. Their choice of a quality builder with architect pedigree, attention to detail and a high level of organizational skills, resulted in a build with exceptional quality across all trade sets. All driven by a schedule that started on time and finished on time. We’ve been back in our home for 3 months and we all still marvel at the beauty of it and feel overwhelmed by the functionality of the design. It’s like we’re on a dreamy holiday. I hope I don’t wake up and find it’s not real.”
