Alice Springs
Traditional knowledge meets modern design
Through the Oonchiumpa consultancy, Alice Springs is where the design happens in community for Goods products. The Stretch Bed was designed in community with the Bloomfield family, combining traditional knowledge with modern durability. Kristy Bloomfield leads this 100% Aboriginal-owned consultancy.
