Jazz at The Mint: New product and book launch

Sydney landscape architects and friends gathered at The Mint in the CBD on May 10, 2023 to celebrate the launch of new products and a design book with Street Furniture Australia and AILA NSW.

A highlight of the evening was introducing ‘… creating a sense of place,’ a book by founding directors Darrel Conybeare and Bill Morrison, which tells the story of two young architects successfully launching their public furniture design and manufacturing business.

The book will be available from July 2023 on Book Depository, Amazon and select bookstores.

The Linea VT collection and Linea Curved Seat were also unveiled, providing dynamic options for curved aluminium and timber seating.

The event was filled with live jazz music, delicious food and drinks, and lively conversations among our guests. We would like to thank everyone who joined us at Jazz at The Mint and made it a memorable night.
