HACK THE COLLECTION : POWERHOUSE MUSEUM

 

This exciting event matched 10 contemporary designers with 10 collection objects that have been 3D scanned.  Designers spent two intensive days manipulating the 3D object files, using as much creativity as they can muster to design their own hacked interpretations.
