About

The Design Division was born out of the simple belief that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts: when complementary design-led skill sets are combined, products and concepts can come to life in ways that would allude a single operator.

Shane Talbot, Kieran Choy and Nicholas Kelly make up The Design Division, a collection of young and talented designers, each of whom are established in their own individual fields and careers, and who come together to create custom design solutions for our clients (and ourselves).

Aside from crafting bespoke, forward thinking and unique concepts, The Design Division is also a collective of designers available for hire to help you with a range of creative services. Focusing on aiding our clients to bring ideas to life, we specialise in industrial design, photography and custom furniture builds.

Nic Kelly

Nic Kelly

Nic’s passion for craftsmanship is matched only by his urge to create totally unique (and often bafflingly beautiful) pieces. Easily his own biggest fan, Nic’s boundless creativity is neatly offset by his pedestrian background as a civil engineer, and counterbalanced by his enormous bounce.

Kieran Choy

Forged in the fiery depths of UTS, imbued with the fantastical power of Industrial Design and versed in the dark art of SolidWorks, Kieran Choy is a fearless warrior who seeks design adventures as yet untold. He also quite likes wandering the cusp between reality and fiction, neatly balanced on a thin bridge of pure hyperbole.

Shane Talbot

Fueled by a constant hunger to create, and with a passion for cyan that borders on obsessive, Shane marries his love of design and photography to produce often striking (and occasionally intimidating) objects with the aim of improving the world around him. Armed constantly with a camera, Shane ensures that nothing goes undocumented – a trait that is both incredibly useful, and incredibly irritating.
