		<description><![CDATA[September is a month of celebration in South Africa. We return to roots, we gather, and we celebrate that which makes us quintessentially South African. South Africa’s heritage is deeply rooted in its distinctiveness. While it is rare for a country to have both a diverse cultural and natural heritage, we find ourselves blessed with both; an abundance of cultures framed within a deep and wide natural and historical context. The cultural diversity that comes from being the Rainbow Nation, set against the backdrop of the Cape Floral Kingdom, Karoo, spectacular coastlines, breathtaking mountain ranges, and awe-inspiring desert regions, gives an unmitigated sense of uniqueness. And with uniqueness, there is also that lingering sense of luxury, of taking part in something that cannot be experienced anywhere else. Interestingly, the new global sense of luxury has shifted away from broad material acquisition towards the attainment of limited editions and one-of-a-kind experiences. The kind that South Africa offers in abundance. Indeed, there are several local luxury brands who have intimately understood this shift, and accordingly, have tapped into South Africa’s heritage and placed it at the core of their brand proposition. They have recognised our country’s exceptionalism and manifested it into ultra-premium [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Paul Cocksedge announced his first ever project in South Africa, during Design Indaba’s annual conference on Friday 28 February 2020. The internationally recognised British designer is creating a permanent timber bridge across the Liesbeek River in Cape Town, within the public open space of the The Upper Liesbeek River Garden. It&#8217;s Cocksedge&#8217;s second project to explore the use of wood and its environmental credentials – following on from his Please Be Seated installation at London Design Festival 2019. The bridge is being developed in collaboration with Design Indaba, WSP and building company XLAM. It will be made from the invasive Eucalyptus tree wood, offsetting its negative effects by using it as a building material. The species originates in Australia but was brought to South Africa in the 1800s for use as shade, windbreaks and plantation timber. The tree can, in fact, negatively impact the water table. Cocksedge plans to work with X-Lam to turn the Eucalyptus tree into Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) – a structural, prefabricated timber panel which is a more sustainable alternative to concrete, masonry and steel, requiring less water and less energy to manufacture. The timber is glued in longitudinal and transverse layers, which creates a very [...]]]></description>

These and other pertinent questions will be addressed by the dedicated workspace sector at 100% Design South Africa 2019, happening alongside Decorex Joburg and the International Sourcing Fair from 7-11 August 2019.  100% Workspace features a thought-leadership programme of industry talks, a fully-functioning interactive workstation, a dedicated feature known as 100% Office, an award-winning Botanical Office, and a top-notch selection of workspace-related exhibitors &#8211; accumulatively constituting the continent’s most significant gathering of office design minds and products. Expect to see workspace interior designers, product and furniture manufacturers, technology and materials suppliers that have all been clustered into a design-forward office-centric hub at the show. As the top trade event for office design in Africa, 100% Design South Africa takes its engagement with the industry seriously.

		<description><![CDATA[This year’s 100% Design South Africa pavilion at Decorex Cape Town, which showed from 1-5 May 2019 at the Cape Town International Convention Centre (CTICC), was aptly entitled 100% Extraordinary. It served as a tantalising, small-scale preview for the showcase of design excellence that’s to come when the main event opens in Hall 1 at Decorex Joburg at Gallagher Convention Centre in August 2019. 100% Extraordinary was a highly curated display of artisanal designer products and pieces, brought together to express a next-generation idea of what workspaces can be. The selection, curated by the Creative Director of 100% Design South Africa, Cathy O’Clery, featured a variety of leading local brands, many of which showcased all-new products. Under the theme Botanical Office, 100% Extraordinary explored the concept of an office space that offers an antidote to the norm. ‘The botanical theme was a no-brainer for me,’ says O’Clery, ‘People have an intrinsic need to connect with nature and so it’s a logical step to bring elements of this into the workplace.’ In line with the current thinking that office spaces need to be practical and hardwearing without being hard-lined or sterile, the Botanical Office theme showcased brands that brought a tactile [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The 2019 installment of 100% Design South Africa is set to take place from 7 to 11 August 2019, alongside Decorex Joburg at the Gallagher Convention Centre. A sterling line-up of rising talent will be showcased alongside established industry stalwarts. The show features the darlings of the local design world, with designer Laduma Ngxokolo of MaXhosa headlining this year’s lineup as Feature Designer for 2019. ‘We invited Laduma to take part as this year’s Feature Designer for a number of reasons. His strong crossover capability from fashion to home makes him incredibly versatile. And his designs draw on personal heritage and a sense of culture, which we feel is an important narrative to champion,’ says Laurence Brick, creative director of Platform Creative, curators of 100% Design South Africa. ‘Additionally, he has an ability to intepret tradition in a very contemporary way, which makes him really exciting as a designer.’ The much-lauded multifaceted designer has branched out from the iconic graphic garments that have cemented him as a star on the local fashion scene, into equally dynamic homeware. For 100% Design South Africa 2019, he will be presenting his collection of rugs, cushion and throws, as well as his new trade [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Introductions and innovations make this year’s show the most exciting yet This year marks the fifth installment of 100% Design South Africa – the country’s premier design show, organised by Reed Exhibitions and curated by Platform Creative Agency.

O’Clery believes that South African designers’ strong narrative and sense of soul sets them apart on a global stage. “The South African design industry has an otherness shaped by its diversity, cultural value and enterprising identity,” she comments on the ever-evolving and growing variety of products on show.
