The title of this year's exhibition by graduating industrial design students at the University of Technology, Sydney - Good Form - manages to describe both the talents of exhibitors and the objects on display.

Good Form, opening on 11 December at the UTS Gallery, showcases the work of a group of students that has carried off four of the seven major prizes at this year's prestigious Student Design Awards, including the first prize and President's Medal for Design Excellence, awarded to Edward Siu.

The exhibition is a collection of the major projects of 24 final year students; each project informed by extensive research with the aim of solving an identified need. It represents the culmination of fours years of study.

The range of projects on show includes modular boat design, sustainable packaging for the pharmaceuticals industry, interactive kiosks for public transport efficiency, and improved equipment for independent filmmakers.

Products range from the high-tech, such as computer interfaces for medical simulation and portable joysticks for laptop use, to equally useful low-tech solutions like ergonomically superior market trolleys.

Sponsored by such industry heavyweights as Herman Miller, Holden, H&R Industries and Freedom, the exhibition will be opened by Mark Armstrong of Blue Sky design, the team that designed the Olympic Torch.

The show aims to forge stronger links between business and UTS in the field of industrial design, encouraging greater awareness of the importance and value of this discipline within the community at large.
