The Local Project

ly local. We explore and showcase how locality shapes design – inception, production, display and reception. Whilst materials, talent and products have a global reach, our view is that they are all entrenched in locality. From material to maker to owner. We place person and space at the fore of all our content. We believe locality is the birthplace of stellar design: connection, knowledge and familiarity to resources, conventions and standard; holding sense of something, belonging and community. Home to a dedicated online marketplace, we connect designers and clients – bridging the gap between artists and design lovers. We bring you a carefully curated selection of Australian (and global) design excellence.
