ReVerSe Art TrUck


A pile of the items I collected from Reverse Art Truck!

 

Plastic offcuts from packaging


Stacked disposable spoon templates that go into the top of a product...



Cardboard tubing offcuts or sticky tape rings?



Strips of plastic offcuts from plastic circle cutting... waterproof... lightweight and plyable



Cricket ball leather offcuts... love the colour



Cardboard tubing off cuts... quite strong but pretty small



Wooden Dowel pieces... could be interesting?

Centre Place...research

The seating that was being used in centre place were mainly stools which seemed to be lightweight and quite simple in form. 


I loved the charm and character of centre place this was the first time I had been here and I just thought this was a place that really represented Melbourne city's personality.

One of the things I observed from centre place is that milk crates were used in the back alleyway for sitting on while eating lunch.



Heaps of colour everywhere with graffiti and cafe signage...
