SUMMARY:2026 Australian Good Design Awards: Deadline extended
DESCRIPTION:The 2026 Australian Good Design Awards officially open for entries\, inviting the nation’s most forward-thinking designers\, architects\, engineers\, strategists and business leaders to submit projects that exemplify this year’s theme: Design that Leads. \nEvery great design begins with intent. It starts by listening\, questioning\, challenging convention and caring deeply about problems others may have overlooked. At its best\, design does more than respond to change – it leads it. \nThe 2026 Awards celebrate the projects\, teams and organisations that are shaping industries\, influencing systems and improving lives through purposeful\, impactful design. \nLearn more: https://good-design.org/2026-awards-entries-open/ \nWDO Member: Australian Good Design Awards

SUMMARY:IDX SYD - Celebrating World Industrial Design Day: Lets get ethical
DESCRIPTION:It’s that time again to put down the markers\, step away from that disobedient CAD file\, and wrap that concept presentation up so we can all catch up for the next Industrial Design Xchange event: Celebrating World Industrial Design Day. \nThis year’s theme? Let’s Get Ethical. \nJoin us as we celebrate with another one-of-a-kind show & tell night—this time diving into the messy\, meaningful space where design meets ethics. \nWe’re inviting you to reflect\, respond\, and bring an object that tells a story. \nBring an object\, material sample\, image\, or prototype\, or even a note from a project that made you stop and think. \nThe realm of ethics is vast\, complex\, and personal. To guide the evening\, we’ve layed out some themes to explore: \nEthics; Power  \nEthics; Responsibility \nEthics; Transparency \nEthics; Consent \nEthics; Repair \nEthics; Compromise \nTogether we’ll create an interactive gallery installation that surfaces the quiet (and loud) ethics code we tackle as designers. \nCome contribute to the collective conversation\, hear from others\, and raise a glass to ethics in action.

SUMMARY:Call for entries: 2025 Australian Good Design Awards
DESCRIPTION:Design is a powerful catalyst for change – it sparks innovation\, solves complex challenges\, and shapes the way we live. The 2025 Australian Good Design Awards embrace this transformative potential with the theme Rewarding\, Defining and Celebrating Better ______.“ \nThis year’s theme invites designers\, innovators\, architects\, engineers and creative thinkers to explore and articulate what “better” means in today’s world. \nBy leaving the statement open-ended\, the theme encourages a broad spectrum of interpretations. From better places\, spaces\, products\, and experiences – to more specific areas like workplaces\, buildings\, apps\, services\, branding\, and user interfaces – design’s potential for improvement is limitless. \nThe annual Awards aim to inspire entrants to showcase work that not only solves problems\, but also enriches experiences\, enhances sustainability\, and fosters progress in all aspects of our lives. \nThrough this theme\, the 2025 Awards reinforce their mission to not only recognise the best in design but to inspire a collective movement towards a better and more thoughtfully designed world. \nWe invite designers to demonstrate how their work creates measurable impact\, tackles real-world challenges\, and drives meaningful progress. \nWDO Member: Good Design Australia

SUMMARY:Biennale of Sydney
DESCRIPTION:The 24th edition of Australia’s largest art biennale takes to the heritage-listed White Bay Power Station with a theme of Ten Thousand Suns. The curatorial team invites artists to consider the atomic era\, which spurred climate alteration through human exploitation\, and also imagine the historic catalysts that complicated Australia’s relationship with its minority populations. The 100-year-old station will host live music and dancing in its turbine hall.
