Pioneers of Design is the second of our annual design exhibitions staged by the Department of Design Studies, The University of New South Wales, College of Fine arts. Pioneers of Design, contributes to the consolidation of the body of knowledge of the history of design practice in Australia and New Zealand. The six designers chosen have made a real contribution to the development of design practice, each in their own individual way. The fields of practice of the pioneers differs greatly, yet their paths crossed many times. The clients were the same and in some cases they worked together on projects. The six designers chosen to be represented in this exhibition are only the tip of the iceberg of the Australasian pioneer designers.
