DIA WA CHAIR

The 2018 DIA WA Awards represents a series of successes and firsts for the institute. As always, the awards are an important commentary on recent design output within Western Australia, however this year they have been more broadly supported in all possible ways.

Awards entries are up by 55% and student entries have increased with entries representing five different tertiary institutions. We thank our 16 awards judges; eight from Perth, four interstate and four from around the globe, we are delighted to have such experienced designers donate their valuable time and expertise.

As well as our local and national corporate partners we were privileged this year to have a further 16 awards partners. This example of the broader design community coming together to recognise and celebrate excellence is absolutely terrific.

The DIA exists as a community voice, to serve and promote professional Australian design. We welcome members from all design disciplines as well as those who employ, commission, support and promote design and designers. The first time in the history of the awards, the Best in State has been awarded to a product design that is truly inspiring as well as provocative. The judges cited this entry as having ‘a direct relation on our thinking’ and ‘a new direction for product design in a world of indifferent products’.

Thank you to all entrants, our judges, our council, our supporters and our sponsors. Huge congratulations to all award winners in what has been one of the biggest years for this awards programme.

A collection of objects aiming to confront, question and enlighten an individuals understanding of self.

AWARD OF MERIT

From the organic green tones of native coastal

scrub to the unrefined timbers of the central

Australian bush, the unique and wildly diverse

palette of Australia’s natural landscape has

been beautifully distilled for the latest decor

collection from Laminex®.

The Laminex Landscape series pays tribute

to all things Australian with its realistic, tactile

woodgrains matched with muted colours

inspired by nature. And, much like the landscape

around us, the range includes 13 new decors

promising to stand the test of time, combining

the strength and resilience of laminate with the

untamed beauty of the natural world.

Additions to the range of woodgrain

laminate surfaces include the sublime

Raw Birchply, perfectly suited to both classic

and contemporary interiors. This material

reflects the fresh cut unvarnished look of

real plywood.

Delicate, muted organic decors such as

Spinifex, Seed and Possum draw upon

Australian natives for a look that’s cool,

contemporary and confident in its embrace

of Australia’s inimitable palette.

The Landscape series captures the romance

and drama of the Australian continent.

Quality in forms, materials, technology andperformance

COMMENDATION

Transforming the agile workplaceSome will remember the ‘60s and some have only bore witness to the era’s adverse glory in Mad Men. But thanks to the television show, we all know what an office looked like at that time. Monolithic, clunky desks designed to hold a typewriter (along with an ash tray, of course) and storage for outrageous amounts of paper. The chairs, while notably improved from those of the previous decade, still featured little ergonomic support.

Imagine if we continued to use that furniture today. Your back would be stiff by the time 5pm hits, the office floorplate would be much more crowded, and what would we keep in all those filing cabinets and drawers?

As knowledge, technology and workplace design change, so too must the furniture. Interior designer Amanda Stanaway and Schiavello’s Principal of People and Culture, Keti Malkoski, identified a gap in the changing market for a team table that fosters active interactions while supporting an overall agile mindset. Research suggests that nowadays, in a typical work week, employees spend 42% of their time collaborating, and 58% of their time working alone. Meanwhile, we are seeing a growing desire for today’s workplace to promote these work modes by providing agile spaces that support interactions as well as independent work.

Further to this, the way we work and switch between independent or group work greatly affects our productivity and

memory retention. When working in a group, we utilise our sensory memory, the shortest-term element of memory. This memory absorbs visual and acoustic idea sharing, face-to-face interaction and debate. However, when we work alone, our working memory comes into play. This allows us to process information from the sensory memory to the working memory – a more permanent memory. The working memory also stores the quiet, deep and focused work we engage in alone.

What is missing, in order to support the ways we now go about our day, and to aid the best transfer of information to memory, is a piece of furniture that supports the diverse ways we work – providing somewhere to host both focused concentration and dynamic collaboration of various tone and formality. The Agile Table features different levels of formality and flexible work points, allowing for group or solo work, seated meetings or standing huddles.

Reinventing the way we interact in the workplace, the table’s height-adjustability

prompts movement throughout the day, supporting employees physically and also psychologically, providing a seamless transition between group and independent work, and thus sensory and working memory.

Catering to different levels of formality, the Agile Table collection consists of the Storming and Work Tables, which can be combined to create a working experience unique to each team. With the option to add multiple workpoints, tools and accessories, the table supports both dynamic collaboration and focused concentration, empowering staff with choice and supporting a high-performance culture for the 21st century.

Desks built for typewriters and ashtrays won’t cut it anymore, but neither will the furniture of the ‘80s or early 2010s. Agile Table is built not just for the now, but for our changing needs of the future.
