Celebrating 40 Years
On March 11, 150 built environment professionals gathered at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Sydney to celebrate Street Furniture Australia’s 40th Birthday.
Watching the sun set over Sydney Harbour while bringing together colleagues, clients and friends from across our industry made the occasion very special.
Our thanks to the speakers who shared their perspectives, MC’d by Richard Nugent (CM+):
🎤 Heath Gledhill, AILA National President
🎤 Dr Sara Padgett Kjaersgaard, FAILA, UNSW
On behalf of the company, Bill Morrison, David Morrison and June Lee Boxsell reflected on our past, present and future – including an announcement soon to be shared in StreetChat.
A 40-year exhibition traced the evolution of our design and manufacturing. It was rewarding to see guests engaging with the stories behind our work.
Reaching this milestone has only been possible thanks to the designers, custodians, partners and collaborators we’ve had the privilege to work with over the years. Our thanks goes to everyone who has been part of that journey.
