Aedas have teamed up with BIAD and Triumph Motorcycles for their latest exhibition, ‘Accessories’, which will launch with a preview show on 16 December at Aedas, Colmore Plaza.

The exhibition will feature pieces designed by MA Product Design Students at BIAD, who’ve produced a collection of 18 alternative lifestyle accessories inspired by components from the Triumph Bonneville T100.

‘Accessories’ will be on display until 20 December, and includes designs for cookware, furniture, audio equipment, household appliances and even pet toys. Triumph will also be awarding one student with a work place opportunity at the company

Aedas Presents is a new monthly art programme held at Aedas Architects in Colmore Plaza, which will present a series of exhibitions by students and emerging artists.

The first 12 months are to be curated by Charlie Levine, and the first artist is Hannah Ainsworth, whose work focuses on matters relating to light, movement and surface

Duration is explored through work that is in a state of decomposition alongside a process that could be eternal.  Perceptual experience measured through time is tantamount to the reading of Ainsworth’s work and these works in particular.

After opening on 18 November the exhibition will be displayed in Colmore Plaza until 26 November. To arrange a visit, contact aedaspresents@aedas.com
