Meaningful places

A strong sense of place is fundamental to wellbeing and human flourishing. Public art is a unique way to explore and express the rich complexity of the human condition and build belonging, meaning and connection in our shared public spaces.
Guildhouse can offer best-practice public art advice from initial research and scoping, through to project brief development, artist engagement in the preparation of concept designs, detailed design development, fabrication and installation of artworks.

Captivating spaces

Quality artworks and objects can enrich interior spaces and architecture to create innovative and captivating corporate environments.
We can provide the specialist curatorial, installation and project management advice and expertise you need to successfully transform spaces into visually extraordinary experiences.

Creative Experiences

Creative and interesting encounters and experiences enrich our cultural life and stimulate our imagination to think in new ways. While it may seem elusive, creativity can be strategically nurtured, curated and embedded.
Creativity is recognised as one of the most powerful and important corporate leadership competencies to drive innovation.
Guildhouse partners with large and small organisations to scope and deliver rich artistic experiences for employees, clients and customers through artist-in-residence programs, professional forums and workshops, co-presented by South Australia’s most highly respected practicing artists.

Bespoke commissions

Commissioning a bespoke artwork or object is a genuinely meaningful way to acknowlede and honour significant relationships as well as celebrate or commemorate some of life’s more remarkable moments.
Guildhouse provides guidance and advice regarding the selection and commissioning of unique and bespoke artworks and objects, hand crafted by South Australia’s diverse professional artists, and contemporary craft practitioners.
