Making Canberra
The national capital is home to artists, designers and craftspeople who are nationally and internationally acclaimed but choose to work, live and make here in Canberra, a city of design. Some of these artists take inspiration from our city itself. Making Canberra celebrates the local designers who have drawn from our city’s built heritage, connection to nature, and icons in their work. Annie Trevillian, Chelsea Lemon, OAT Studio, Paul House, Nicholas Harper, Rene Linssen and Sean Booth.
