Korban/Flaubertmembers: Janos Korban, Stefanie Flaubert. Both Australians. studio location: Sydney Korban/Flaubert is a Sydney-based design and production workshop founded in 1993 by metel specialist Janos Korban and Architect Stefanie Flaubert. Korban/Flaubert extracts the logic of growth patterns in nature to develop ideas for furniture, lighting and large site-specific space/sculpture commissions. Their work has been exhibited in Australia, Europe, The U.S., The U.K. and Japan. Korban/Flaubert produce innovative forms for furniture and lighting by thinking and working differently. We treat design as a process of discovery. Korban and Flaubert have worked together since the early 90s developing their ideas about mathematics and geometry as a way of understanding the world. They set up themes for investigation connected with natural phenomena and let forms fall out of a process of exploration and play. Outcomes are connected thematically but not predetermined: may be functional, non functional, large, small or completely abstract objects. exhibitions and museum permanent collections exhibitions: 1994 Korban/Flaubert exhibition.

our favorite dish Bouillabaisse
A simple bouillabaisse to wake you up: saffron threads Merge saffron and hot water and let infuse. put the stock, tomato, leek, carrot and celery in a large saucepan and bring to the boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook, uncovered, for 10 minutes or until vegetables begin to soften. Add saffron mixture to tomato mixture and cook for a further 10 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Add fish, prawns, clams and mussels to the soup and cook, covered, for a further 2-3 minutes or until seafood is just cooked and mussels open. Taste and season with lemon, chili, salt and pepper. Ladle generously.
our favorite artist Dale Frank is our favorite painter, cathartic and exuberant work, direct and gut wrenching. His gallery in Sydney says: 'dale frank's current series of paintings celebrate the vibrant sensual painterly style he is known for. The work literally bathes in its own electric illumination but is given a particular life by the changing choreography of color flowing through its strings of light. Frank's paintings are always determinedly of the here and now of their very moment of production. They partake in the style and look, the glamour of their moment but also burst beyond it. His works have often been described as paradoxical, flirting with the excessive and the extreme, yet celebrating intense beauty and a sense of stylistic freedom that verges upon the anarchic.' Dale is represented by Roslyn Oxley gallery in Sydney
