This year, the Alastair Swayn Foundation marks ten years.
It began with Alastair's conviction that design matters — to how we live, how we connect, and most importantly, to how we build a better and more equitable world. A decade on, that conviction has become a body of work: across research, education, exhibition, and events — and a community of people that has grown with it.
You've been part of that, and we'd love to have you with us to celebrate ten years of achievement, and to look ahead to what comes next.
The evening will feature a lecture by designer and urbanist Professor Dan Hill, with a Q&A led by design advocate Tim Ross, and will conclude with a cocktail reception in the Gandel Atrium at the National Museum of Australia.
Ten years in. The next ten start now. We hope you'll join us.
