Introducing NEWNEW by Cultivated + Nexus Designs

You're Invited
Join us 16-18 July at the NEWNEW Pavilion created by Cultivated and Nexus Designs in partnership with Crafted Hardwoods and Mark Tuckey for the 2025 edition of Green Design Show.
Everything in NEWNEW has a story to tell and a life yet to live. A temporary structure with a light footprint both literally and metaphorically, NEWNEW challenges you to consider how re-use, refurbishment and responsible decision making can be at the forefront of bespoke interior spaces. Grounded in circular values, NEWNEW houses pieces curated by notable design studio Nexus Designs and made by Cultivated, a restorer of authentic designer furniture and lighting that may otherwise end up as landfill.


Built by Mark Tuckey, using timber and finishes by Crafted Hardwoods and Oslek Flooring, NEWNEW showcases a creative approach to re-use, responsible sourcing and supporting local makers as a solution to the environmental crisis. Also on show is a plethora of work by local, Australian manufacturers, makers and creatives such as textile artist Heather Thomas, who uses native Australian flora like wattle and eucalyptus to impart hues onto natural fabrics.
Designed to literally unfold as one explores it, NEWNEW imparts intrigue and drama, and is an innovative, exploratory and educative experience about the processes, pieces and people involved in the circular design economy. Fuelled by curiosity, creativity and responsibility, NEWNEW is a courageous commitment to disrupting the norm by revealing the creative possibilities of design inspired by sustainable material selection.
A heartfelt thank you.
NEWNEW has been created in conjunction and with the support of Mark Tuckey, Crafted Hardwoods, Wild Heather Australia, Artbank and Oslek Flooring.
