The Design Centre Enmore (DCE) is the beating heart of Sydney TAFE’s creativity and home to some of Australia's most reputed design courses. DCE students can choose to study a variety of design-related courses on campus including industrial, jewellery, graphic, interior, event and entertainment design, 3D animation, concept art and illustration. Seeking a partner to create beautiful wall-mounted custom cabinets to house mannequins and showcase the students' creative work, DCE asked Showfront to take on the challenge...

The brief from DCE was to create a series of black, wall-mounted display cabinets with black aluminium slatwall and LED downlights for illumination. The display cabinets would be mounted outdoors in partial cover and black waterproof Alucabond in-fills were used to keep the cabinets weather-tight.

A flexible configuration would be key, to allow for different sizes, shapes and easy rotation of the display objects and 6 adjustable shelves were fitted in each cabinet. Security was obviously an important consideration and each cabinet was fitted with lockable glass sliding doors. The cabinets were finished off with shatter-proof safety glass, an aluminium plinth and levelling feet before being sealed to the wall. A separate wall-mounted notice board was also fitted as part of the project.

We think the Display Cabinets came up beautifully, a fitting showcase for the wonderful creativity of the DCE students and a fine spectacle for campus visitors. Many thanks to our friends at Sydney TAFE for choosing Showfront to take on the challenge.
