The Design Files operates as an Australian online design platform that covers a wide range of topics, including homes, gardens, art, architecture, craft, interior design, furniture, textiles, homewares, and food. It presents original photography and videography to document spaces and tell design stories, with the aim of informing its audience about creative happenings across the country. Based in Collingwood, Victoria, and founded in 2008 by Melbourne stylist Lucy Feagins, the team is comparatively small but maintains an actively engaged readership and social media following. Beyond online publishing, The Design Files runs art exhibitions, events, talks, and pop-ups, reflecting a broader involvement in the design community. It also maintains a weekly column in Domain magazine, a publication associated with The Age and the Sydney Morning Herald. In 2023, it partnered with the Australian International Furniture Fair and participated in the AIFF Seminar Series in Melbourne in collaboration with Decor + Design, illustrating its industry partnerships.
