Matt Potter<br />

Wins Vivid Award<br />

First year Furniture Studio Associate Matt Potter was the<br />

recent winner of the <strong>2017</strong> VIVID Design Colour Award<br />

with his ceramic pendant, Habere Light. Habere draws<br />

inspiration in equal parts from both organic form and<br />

the digitally engineered. Matt started with the<br />

exploration of a conceptual theme and employed<br />

process-driven research to create Habere.<br />

JamFactory Lifetime<br />

Honouree Dick Richards<br />

At an exclusive Members’ preview event of JamFactory<br />

Icon <strong>2017</strong> Catherine Truman: no surface holds, Dick<br />

Richards was recognised as JamFactory’s first ever<br />

Lifetime Honouree. Dick was instrumental in JamFactory’s<br />

early years undertaking a fact-finding mission, initiated by<br />

Don Dunstan, across Europe to build the case for its<br />

establishment. He then served on JamFactory’s Board for<br />

the first decade. Dick was also an avid advocator for the<br />

arts in South Australia with an outstanding 35-year career<br />

at the Art Gallery of South Australia, until his retirement<br />

in 2000.<br />

It’s been all hands on deck after a substantial grant was<br />

Under the artistic leadership of the Creative Director of<br />

JamFactory’s Furniture Studio Jon Goulder, JamFactory’s<br />

Associates have been commissioned to produce 33 bench<br />

seats, 10 bespoke armchairs (designed by Jon Goulder,<br />

amongst other pieces. JamFactory is working with Hassell<br />

Architects on the project which is due for completion by<br />
