Turn Me On Design
If you look up 'fiddle' in the dictionary, you'll find that it denotes passing time aimlessly, without doing or achieving anything of substance. This is where Turn Me On Design comes into... er... play. Their latest range, Smoke & Mirrors, will turn your aimless fiddling into some serious brain exercising time.
Off The Rack
Who can resist a pretty brooch? Certainly not your nanna, war veterans, Che Guevara or me. And you? Especially not you. This collaborative project breaches the gap between hard-yakka design and conveyor belt production. The designers play with techniques and materials to produce these little badges of individualism in limited editions.

Curators are lucky people. Not only do they live their lives surrounded by beautiful things and host frequent exhibition openings with free cask wine, but they also get first dibs on the artworks being displayed. Excuse me for getting all red in your inbox, but wouldn't the world be a better place if some of this vast cultural wealth could be shared with the common proletariat?
Hustle over to one of the best kept secrets on Bourke Street - a mysterious shop front bearing the initials CA.
Studio 20/17
Amidst the concrete corridors and lucid glass laneways of the ‘2 Dank Street' institution, many a stimulating thing may be found. Here, is a newly-opened, suitably-named homage to Waterloo's postcode, Studio 20/17. The hidden cache, merging gallery with workshop, houses contemporary objects alongside obscure and ornate forms of jewellery.

There's a lot more than metal at this year's PROFILE, the biennial award exhibition of selected works from members of the NSW Jewellers and Metalsmiths Group of Australia - on show until this weekend at the lovely HORUS & DELORIS gallery.
Limedrop
Once upon a time in the Northern Territory, a curly-haired boy and a leggy lady linked arms and creative endeavour. Together they trekked south easterly - dropping by Brisbane for an education, stopping to take in the sites of Sydney, and finally landing in Melbourne town. Today they feed the creative industry of all three cities with the fashionable flair that is Limedrop.
