Made by Morgen — Tactile Table, 2025
DONE/UNDONE
Curated by Joseph Gardner
VISIONARIES 2025: Presenting the future of Australian art, craft and design through the lens of one of the country's most influential creatives.

The design of the 'Tactile Table' emphasizes a clean, linear form, achieved through a simple split-top table structure. The tabletop edge is tapered to a fine profile, and the base is shaped with a subtle fold in the aluminium. Contrasting materials highlight the simplicity and precision of the design. The base features a raw aluminium finish, while the top is polished to bring out the natural characteristics of American Ash.

Nick McDonald, the Founder and Director of Made by Morgen, recounts his journey from working in construction to establishing a successful bespoke furniture business in Melbourne. After spending six months in Denmark, he fell in love with Scandinavian furniture design, which inspired him to bring those influences back to Australia. With a focus on creating beautiful and functional spaces, he developed the philosophy of “make it simple, make it well,” which serves as the foundation for his brand.

Joseph Gardner is the 2025 Visionaries curator – presenting DONE/UNDONE: an exhibition of 50+ artists, and one of Craft’s largest exhibitions to date – featuring artists working across medium, scale and practice, representing exceptional Australian talent.
DONE/UNDONE explores the creative process as a space of constant negotiation – a series of decisions to build, erase, repeat, or let be. It’s about that intuitive moment when a maker chooses to pause, to push further, or to dismantle entirely. These are the choices that define the rhythm of making – choices familiar to artists, designers, and creators across disciplines.
Joseph Gardner is the Style Editor at Vogue Living, with a decade of experience in publishing and styling, and the founder of Sydney-based gallery, Studio Gardner.
