Object Shop At Home
Last month we collaborated with Custom Mad on a photo shoot in a Sydney terrace house designed by Claire McCaughan.
Taking a range of pieces from Object Shop, designed and made by local Australian makers, shows how beautifully handmade objects can be incorporated into your home.
Creating your home with things that have meaning and value for you is even more important today when we are spending so much time at home during lockdowns. Handmade objects can add functionality, decoration, value and interest to those special places we call our own.

Object 150 November/December Maker - Helen Earl
Helen Earl explores the interface between form and function, nature and object. By incorporating found objects into her work, she provokes thought and reflection about how we interact with both the natural and object-laden world.
Much of her exploration of ideas for work comes from walking and gathering found objects, usually nature’s flotsam, in her environment.
Concepts for new work begin with the experiential, the moving about and exploring of a natural space. This experience is then expanded or framed by narratives of culture, history, science and the environment.
