The School of Design and the Built Environment launched the Design Fabrication Lighting Exhibition on Tuesday 29 July, showcasing cross-disciplinary student works across Interior Architecture, Design Innovation and Fabrication.

Welcoming more than 90 guests of students, academic staff and industry professionals, the event provided a valuable opportunity for connection and exchange, highlighting the importance of creativity, curiosity and collaboration in contemporary design education.

Responding to the brief – “Design and fabricate a lighting unit that evokes emotion and enhances the user’s spatial experience” – students explored a wide range of themes, materials and forms. The resulting works are diverse, innovative and deeply considered, reflecting each student’s unique interpretation of the emotional potential of light and space.

Congratulations to our DBE students on their incredible work.

Thank you also to Professor Sue Anne Ware, Associate Professor Qassim Saad, Associate Lecturer Jennifer Lane and Casual Academic Samuel Crowley for their involvement during the exhibition.
