Never before has ‘eating your greens’ been such an exciting and engaging concept. 

Representing the ultimate approach to sustainability, Eat Green Design will inspire designers and architects to not only acknowledge the importance of sustainable practices, but to recognize the beauty and depth such approaches will add to their work.

The purpose-built space by architect Hannah Tribe of Tribe Studio is to house a restaurant, theatrette and designers’ market. 

The space lends itself beautifully to the theme of the event as it has been cleverly constructed to demonstrate the principles of sustainable architecture and interior design. 

With the aim of reaching for perfection, even the tableware and furniture for the event has been specifically commissioned by a group of Australian designers to ensure harmony among the tone of the space and the theme of the event. 

Here, diners can sample biodynamic and organic dishes whilst listening to discussions about the value of sustainability, and deepening their desire to embrace such principles. 

The inspiring line-up of 40 key speakers includes Indesign editor Paul M
cGillick who will join a panel of experts to discuss the media’s overwhelming response to sustainability and design.
