Design Tasmania, one of Australia's leading design organisations, is the centre for design, culture and enterprise in Tasmania. Dedicated to nurturing and championing creative practice in Tasmania since 1976, they encourage creative risk-taking, facilitate new work and collaborate to broaden the national and international audience for Tasmanian design and craft and build the audience for design.

Design Tasmania is a destination attraction for tourism in the state's north, welcoming visitors from across Australia and the World, and promoting design and craft through exhibitions and retail. Housing one of Australia's most significant contemporary timber design collections, Design Tasmania's Launceston City Park base is recognised as one of the world's best contemporary buildings.
