While Design Week is now well underway across the city, we at MAF took the liberty of poking our noses into a handful of the extensive programming, catching a glimpse of the installation process and the many beads of sweat it takes to pull something like this together.

Featured:

💥 @thomasmaxamstudio’s ‘A Sense of Occassion’ at @nho_________ saw designers putting their own lens on the champagne bucket
💥 @deannorton’s ‘Between Planes’ transformed @hotelhouse___ through his exploration of reflection
💥 @tom_fereday’s ‘Arum’, open at the @abbotsfordconvent Oratory until 24 May
💥 ‘HOUSE’ at @animalhousefinearts transforms the space into a simulation of an apartment, featuring an array of works by artists and designers, closing 23 May.

Cordon Salon @cordonsalon, Rosanna Ceravolo @studioceravolo, Jordan Fleming @_jordanfleming and Marta Figueiredo @martafigueiredo_studio.

This shared booth atop a sultry yellow carpet brought lighting, furniture and object-based practices into dialogue - moving between the architectural and the domestic.

A big congratulations to @doncameron.studio and his well-deserved inclusion in @est_living’s esteemed 10, recognising ten Australians for their excellence in residential architecture and design in 2026.

His presentation at FUTUREOBJEKT earlier this year included his own work from his ‘Translations’  series, paintings by Henk Duijn, and a sharp selection of historic design, including an impressive light sculpture created by Gianfranco Fini in the 1970s.

Pictured: @gallerytwentytwenty at FUTUREOBJEKT, showcasing 𝘏𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘻𝘰𝘯 by @jorispoggioli

Unfolding as a refined study of line, distance and quiet tension. The collection reflects an ongoing fascination with how objects meet space-where structure ends and perception begins. Rather than asserting itself through gesture or ornament, the work operates through restraint, allowing proportion, rhythm and material presence to shape the experience.

𝘏𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘻𝘰𝘯 is now open at Gallery Twenty Twenty’s physical space in Alexandria, Gadigal Country/Sydney. Last week, they opened the space, welcomingcollectors, architects and design enthusiasts to celebrate its inaugural exhibition.

Studio GARDNER at Melbourne Art Fair ⁠
⁠
We were on the floor at Melbourne Art Fair 2026 as Aaron, one half of @studiogardner walked us through their FUTUREOBJEKT presentation A tightly curated cast of international names: decorative objects by @rickowensonline, lighting and furniture from @paulineesparon, the sculptural craft of @jumandie_seys, furniture by @ejrbarnes, the multidisciplinary precision of @studioutte, and the quietly arresting work of @hansseverinjacobsen. Collected, considered, and completely compelling.⁠
⁠
A big thank you to @studiogardner @melbourneartfair @futureobjekt

Melbourne Art Fair 2026 | A Talk With Joris Poggioli⁠
⁠
We were on the floor at Melbourne Art Fair 2026 as Paris-based designer and architect Joris Poggioli walked us through his solo presentation for Gallery Twenty Twenty within FUTUREOBJEKT. His latest series, Horizon, distilled line, proportion and quiet tension into composed, handcrafted forms made in Italy.⁠

A moment for the MOBILIA Design Lounge, as part of @futureobjekt at Melbourne Art Fair 2026. 

Titled 𝘓𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨, the immersive installation space anchoring FUTUREOBJEKT was a collaboration between artist Tom Polo @tompolo and @mobilia_. It drew inspiration from romantic architecture and Italian piazzas - public squares traditionally organised around a central landmark, often a sculpture or artwork, offering visitors an intuitive way to navigate and understand their surroundings. 

“The title 𝘓𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 reflects my ongoing research into portraiture, social space and the interactivity. It’s about creating a space that feels alive—where artworks, furniture, and people coexist in a shared emotional landscape.”
—Tom Polo

Surrounded by Cassina furniture, the space featured works by Mikala Dwyer @mikaladwyer courtesy @1301sw_au @starkwhite, Oscar Nimmo @oscarnimmo_ coutesy @nasha.au , Renee So @reneeso_ courtesy @roslynoxley9, Nicholas Currie @nicholascurrie courtesy @dainesinger, Sarah Contos @contosfox courtesy @stationgalleryaustralia, Heather B.

Melbourne Art Fair 2026. Across four days, over 20,000 people made their way through the doors of the @mcec and wandered the aisles to discover new and exciting art and design.

In its now annual format, the 19th edition of Melbourne Art Fair saw record attendance and AUD$16.4M reported in artwork and collectible design sales, continuing to build momentum and support both Australian and international contemporary art and design.

This year, over 60 galleries and Indigenous art centres joined the lineup, as well as the inaugural @futureobjekt, MAF’s collectible design salon featuring over 20 designers and design studios exhibiting work.

Three large-scale BEYOND works greeted visitors at the entrance - installations by leading senior artists Brenda L. Croft @brendalcroft, Judith Wright and Fiona Hall. VIDEO offered a platform for international artists to showcase experimental moving image works. Michael Parekōwhai’s 2006 Commission 𝘊𝘰𝘴𝘮𝘰 𝘔𝘤𝘔𝘶𝘳𝘵𝘳𝘺 returned after it was first exhibited at MAF twenty years ago; and the PROJECT ROOMS platformed non-commercial spaces @play_station and @correspondences with a space within the Fair.

Another huge thank you everyone who made it all possible - all the artists and designers, gallerists and collectors, partners who supported the Fair in its 19th edition, and many more to come.

THAT’S A WRAP ON MAF 2026 ✨

Thank you to everyone who found their way to Melbourne Art Fair this year. Everyone who wandered the aisles and found a painting or a sculpture or a chair that they loved, and maybe even bought. To all of the artists, designer, galleries, builders, installers, and partners who supported us in making it all happen. Thank you for making the 19th edition so unforgettable.

150+ artists and designers, over 60 leading galleries, Indigenous art centres, and design studios. This is art. This is Melbourne.

We’ll see you next year, 18 - 21 February 2027 <3
