Abdé Nouamani is a Moroccan-born, Naarm/Melbourne-based designer who works across furniture, lighting, and object design. Working primarily with wood, metal and clay, Abdé explores the inherent qualities of these materials to create functional forms that are at once curious and familiar. In 2020, he established Another Bureau of Design – a studio practice engaging in industrial and handmade production techniques to make design objects informed by the aesthetics of the built environment. Abdé holds an Associate Degree in Furniture Design and a Bachelor in Industrial Design from RMIT. He has exhibited both nationally and internationally, including at Milan Design Week, 2023 and New York Design Week, New York, 2022.
