Fantastic day in Melbourne at SID 2012

Konfurb, in conjunction with DAL, New Age Veneers and Zambesi, enjoyed an extremely busy and successful Saturday in Design in Melbourne. We had streams of people through the showroom collaborating and enjoying themselves on our great new ranges of modular furniture.
The contemporary, yet practical designs of modular pieces were well received and multiple applications were identified by a wide range of A&D professionals who visited us over the two days.

Thanks to all of you who managed to pay us a visit – we look forward to further kollaboration with you all!

Recent Arc Agency events

In October 2011 we showcased our product at the Arc Agency events in Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney.

Our Searl and Fusion were received extremely well with good leads into current project work at all 3 events.

The attendees loved the simplicity and comfort of the Searl, along with the affordability of a fun designer product.

The Fusion was noted for its innovation, affordability, comfort and ease of use, definitely had immediate uptake on current projects being specified.

The Melbourne event was held at MIFA on Collins street in the city centre. Fantastic buzzing venue with a great turnout, food was to die for!

 The Brisbane event was held at the Strand on Riverside in Brisbane. The venue was a big success with a good turnout of people flowing through. With amazing views of the Brisbane river, the venue created quite a nice atmosphere for the evening.

In Sydney on the 27th of October the event was held in the stunning Opera House. The venue had over 450 A&D clients attend. The night was all go and the catering was great!

Saturday in Design

Saturday in Design 2010 in Melbourne was a first for Konfurb as we lanched our new range of Bodyflex chairs and training table. With over 1900 visitors through our collaborative site in the Chapter House on Flinders Lane we were extremely busy demonstrating the unique design and operating features of the chair.

The response to the new range excellent, with significant interest in the superb comfort and support of the Active Back Technology ABT TM which is a standard feature in the task, visitor and training chairs. Furthermore, GreenGuard certification was seen as a major international environmental accreditation with relevance in Australia and NZ. The specification pages provide more detail about the features and their benefits for users and the environment.

The unique “look and feel” of chairs was also a common talking point amongst visitors to the Konfurb stand. For this very reason the Bodyflex task chair received the Red Dot Design award in 2010.

Following Saturday in Design we have received a number of enquiries regarding the Bodyflex seating range and the training table. If you missed us at Saturday in Design, or you want to view the wider Konfurb range please check the location of our Konfurb partners under “Where to Buy” or alternatively contact the Brand Manager in Australia sarah.devantier@konfurb.com
