Design Ambassador’s Showcase
17 Feb – 1 July
This exhibition showcased the award winning entries of the three 2006 Design Ambassadors. Re-thinking the cumbersome hospital drip attachments to create a portable, intravenous pump earned industrial designer Matt Backler a position as a design ambassador, alongside fashion designer Sherie Muys and short-film animator Lawrence Blankenbyl. All three designers headed off on a stimulating whirlwind tour of the UK design scene courtesy of the British Council.
