This week on Let’s Talk Design I met with René Linseen and Elliot Bastianon from Furnished Forever. René and Elliot 6 years back now joined forces with a common passion for furniture, combining their backgrounds in Art and Design to create unique and visually stunning Australian-made pieces. Apart from Furnished Forever, René works as an industrial designer at Formswell Design with Dan Armstrong who recently came on the podcast. In addition, Elliot facilitates his personal artistic practice.

In the podcast, we discuss how the two of them work collaboratively to draw from their multidisciplinary experience to create artistic while functional and user-centric furniture outcomes. Further, they discuss the challenges and oppositions they have experienced when working on the modern Australian design landscape, where they mention theatre excitement for the future of the industry. To conclude the two of them give advice to incoming designer looking to take the jump into personal projects outside of the scope of their design practice.
