Street and Park Furniture, along with Rossi Boots, have been selected under a pilot program to work with business advisers and design specialists to develop new strategies for growth.
“Managing Director, Cameron Johnston is convinced better cities start at street level.
So he is focusing on good, well-designed street furniture to help achieve that aim.
The Street and Park Furniture managing director says that to deliver on function and form is at times quite challenging, particularly when the market is looking for a bespoke solution rather than an off-the-shelf item.”
To help improve manufacturing and design competitiveness for his leading-edge furniture design company, Street and Park Furniture applied to be a part of the Design Integration Program, which is modelled on a NZ program which has seen success to over 70 companies since its conception.
“Mr Johnston said he was excited by opportunities the new State and Federal Government program would give local businesses to gain a competitive edge by using innovative design.”
By Nigel Austin from AdelaideNow, and as seen in the SA Business Journal as part of The Advertiser.
The Street and Park team have just completed a two day Audit/Review with the Design Integration panel which included overseers from the New Zealand Design Integration Program (http://equipdesign.co.nz/) and will await the report due in January.
Bring on an improved 2012!
