COVID-19 has crystallised a social and economic
movement bubbling beneath the surface of this past decade. Formerly bustling
high streets are now lined with unwanted and empty tenancies. In light of these
developments, Alt. Material is hosting a group exhibition, ‘Community’, during
this year’s Melbourne Design Week, focusing hon how to bring these spaces
together temporarily. By occupying storefronts
in Collingwood and Fitzroy, leading
and emerging
design practitioners from around the world contribute with functional
furniture to conceptual explorations that available to purchase via a digital
auction. David Thulstrup is contributing with his Font Lounge Chair for Møbel
Copenhagen. In collaboration with Fred International.
