BlackBOX showcases design innovations that have endured from Melbourne Australia over the last 150 years. Named after the Melbourne invention that changed the aviation industry, BlackBOX highlights innovations that have had global impacts. From enabling hearing with the bionic ear, through to the day-to-day convenience of refrigeration and electrical power boards, Melbourne designs continue to have significant impacts on the world. Using the latest iOS technology BlackBOX shares these stories and their Melbourne connection through an interactive digital exhibition.


Blackmagic Micro Cinema Camera - Miniaturized digital film camera for remote use with PWM and S.Bus for use with model airplane remote controls. Includes Super 16 size sensor with 13 stops of dynamic range and RAW and ProRes recorder.

BlackBOX prende il nome dall’invenzione creata a Melbourne che ha cambiato l’aviazione e vi porta le novità di design nate a Melbourne Australia negli ultimi 150 anni e ancora in uso. Tali innovazioni hanno avuto un impatto globale: dal rendere possibile l’udito con l’orecchio bionico, fino alla comodità quotidiana della refrigerazione e delle multiprese. I design di Melbourne continuano ad avere un significativo impatto a livello mondiale. BlackBOX utilizza la più moderna tecnologia IOS per condividerne le storie e il loro legame con Melbourne in una mostra digitale interattiva.

Salone Satellite - Corker - Max Harper - Melbourne Movement Stand A28

The Corker series of pendant lights is inspired by the iconic cork hats that are linked to Australiana. Corker playfully mocks this cultural iconography in a modern design context.


Salone Satellite - Max Harper - Melbourne Movement Stand A28

Corker comes in two styles and two variations, Skinny and Rotund, straight pendant light and pivoted pendant light. Each piece is hand turned from agglomerated cork; cork being a hardy yet renewable,
bio-degradable and recyclable resource. The wire-bent powdercoated mild steel yoke allows the light to pivot to a range of angles.

These lights are designed and made in Australia. The simplicity in design allows the material to reveal its natural beauty.

Exo Series is an exciting new range of lights that is highly versatile in its application. Crisp lines and a skeletal structure make for distinct shadows with Exo, a series of suspended lamps designed and made in Australia.

Flat geometric fins frame an integrated LED light source in the versatile Exo range: two different forms, two sizes, functional as pendant, wall mount or table lamp.
