2022 Wrap Up
We always knew this year was going to be big but when putting this wrap up together and seeing it all in the one place, it really put things into perspective. The quality of projects, collaborations and product launches we have worked on this year; in addition to the incredible people we’ve met, partnered with, entertained and interviewed; as well as the events we were lucky enough to host or be a part of, have kept us engaged and inspired every day. On reflection, 2022 has been bigger and more exciting than we could have imagined…
On behalf of the JRF team, thank you to our incredible clients for trusting us with your projects and partnering with us to bring your creative vision to life with quality, fit for purpose furniture that will stand the test of time.
We hope you enjoy looking back on some of our notable moments from 2022…
Milan Design Week Dinner 2022
Milan Design Week 2022 was a complete sensory overload. The energy, hustle, bustle and passion of the city were electric! Following the cancellation of Milan’s pre-eminent design festival in 2020 and its smaller, more intimate iteration the following year saw an abundance of inspiration bursting from every direction. It was incredible to catch up with our suppliers after such a long time and see our new releases in the flesh. The creativity, colour, vibrance and love of design that transforms Milan is so magical.
Melbourne Design Week
We hosted a panel discussion at Space & Time as a part of NGV’s Melbourne Design Week. Cassie Hansen moderated a panel of industry leaders, Ryan & Byron from Russell & George, Adam D’Sylva, Ronnen Goren from Studio Ongarato and our very own Georgia Danos to discuss the impact design has on the hospitality industry.
