Duzi Objects

Duzi Objects is the studio of Douglas Powell, a Walyalup/Fremantle‑based maker whose practice revolves around steel and the choreography of light. Originally from Zimbabwe, Powell trained in product design in the UK and later qualified as a metal fabricator, melding precision engineering with a sculptor’s intuition.

His vessels, furniture and sculptural objects are drawn with line and plane in steel; bent, welded and polished until they reflect the room’s movement. Surfaces oscillate between satin and mirror, revealing process without theatrics. The result is work that is minimal in outline yet rich in presence.

In Cleo Collects spaces, Duzi Objects introduces a contemporary counterweight to antique timber and stone. The pieces hold their own while remaining generous to everything around them, a quality we prize when composing complex rooms.

Awards & Recognition: Finalist, Rigg Design Prize 2025 at NGV Australia, Melbourne—national recognition that underscores the studio’s contribution to Australian design.
Exhibitions: Solo presentation at Cleo Collects (2025); participation in Perth Design Week events; ongoing features in design media and collectible design platforms.
