Oh, Australia/New Zealand/Tasmania…  You have my design heart.  Your work has none of the pretenses that American and European designs have.  Your architecture is warm and rich, elegantly textured and oh-so-inviting on the glossy pages of my magazines.  Alas, we are a world apart, my dear.  I try to rid my mind of thoughts of you, but I simply cannot.

And here you are, Indeco, adding more fuel to the fire.  Your deceivingly simple shapes, the rich materiality…  It’s just too much.
