This month, the editorial team has spent as much time out of the Indesign Media offices as in. Here’s a regional wrap of some of the major happenings and directions around the region, and further afield.

We’ve been featuring plenty of coverage of the biennial Orgatec trade show in Cologne in recent weeks. The show drew a strong contingent from our part of the world, including a number of Australian brands and industry colleagues from Singapore, Hong Kong, New Zealand.
Says Melbourne-based Indesign Media Editor Aleesha Callahan, who was on the ground in Germany: “There were many key areas across the workplace sector shining through at Orgatec this year – acoustics of all shapes and sizes, innovative integrated technologies and ever-more softening office environments. In among the action were many folk from our regional A&D industry that will be bringing the latest offerings back to the Indo-Pacific region.” She and the Indesign Media team caught up with a host of familiar faces at Indesign’s Orgatec soirée.
The ‘Passive Butterfly’ house by EME Design won the prestigious Best of the Best category, as well as taking out the award for Single Dwelling Alteration or Addition. View the full list of winners here, and see snaps of the night here.
