Semi-Permanent is back for its eighth installment after touring Sydney, Melbourne, Dubai and Singapore. Kicking off on May 18th in Auckland City, the event has now expanded to host 16 impressive speakers across a greater range of disciplines. Including industry heavy-weights Ron English, Industrial Light & Magic, Gmunk, Wallpaper magazine, Miss Van, Alex Trouchet (among others), and locally Stolen Girlfriends Club; it's one must-see creative event that must be put on your agenda. Semi-Permanent's director Simon Velvin explains, "Semi-Permanent is a global gathering of pure talent, new ideas, conversation and visual splendor that culminates in a two-day conference with some of the most inspirational designers and artists of our time."

We've been lucky enough to secure exclusive interviews with some of the speakers over the coming weeks in the lead up to the event, so we ask that you stay tuned to our Design Folio Updates for the exclusive scoop.
