‘For me design is just solving problems, coming up with solutions’, says Sydney designer Gary Galego.
Drawing some cool flowing lines on a piece of paper can be the start of a great furniture design but forming those curves into a functional and ergonomic piece can be another matter. The short video below gives a brief but instructive insight into Gary’s design approach, and also how he uses the steam bending process in his work.
Gary Galego is one of the past exhibitors at Workshopped’s annual exhibition of emerging designers. Workshopped exhibits, manufactures, wholesales and retails Australian design products.
The work of Gary Galego and eleven other designers features in an exhibition titled Resolved: Journeys in Australian Design on display at Object Gallery, 417 Bourke St, Surry Hills, Sydney, NSW until June 21. The definition of ‘success’ in a design context is explored throughout.
Other featured designers include Adam Cornish, Adam Goodrum, Alex Gilmour, Ben McCarthy, Bic Tieu, Chris Hardy, Fukutoshi Ueno, Kate Stokes, Marc Harrison, Matt Conway and Zoë MacDonell.
