    About the Furniture Designers Association        

The FDA was established in Tasmania in 1995 by a group of furniture designers and designer-makers, consisting of established professionals, staff and recent graduates from the Furniture Design program at the University of Tasmania.

Its mission is to represent, develop and promote excellence in the professional practice of contemporary furniture design.

The fda provides a network and information service to its members and supports marketing of products and design services, through co-operative ventures such as regular exhibitions.
