Elizabeth Lawrence : Behind the Design
Having dedicated seven years to developing upholstery
and design skills, Elizabeth has used her background
to concentrate on quality children's furniture design.
“Parents spend a lot of time and money on their homes. Why should
children's furniture undo all that hard work! I try to make things
that are not only fun for kids but also considerate of the parents
need for quality and function. Children's furniture design is unique
in this way, as it requires an understanding of two different sets
of expectations.”
Elizabeth has harbored an interest in furniture design for years and
has been a regular contributor to Melbourne's Fringe furniture exhibition
taking out major awards on two separate occasions. In 2005 Elizabeth
was also short listed for the best new prototype by a professional
designer at the 2005 Furnitex Furniture Fair.
“It's really important to be involved in fairs and exhibitions. Not
only is it a great platform to test out new products and check out
new technologies but you also get to meet other designers. Working
solo can be an insular existence. It's good to know there are other
design crazies out there enjoying the same angst!” |
