Why Join Now: Back the Next Decade of Advocacy
Founded in 2010, the ADA was relaunched in 2016 by a new team with a fresh remit.
2026 marks ten years of advocacy, education and community building for the Australian furnishing sector. During that time, membership rates have remained unchanged since that relaunch.
Silver Membership gives established businesses the structured support to match their scale — safeguarding design integrity, authenticity, and IP and ESG outcomes as they grow.
This year, we are launching several new programs to expand our industry support. Circularity education, deeper engagement with architects and interior designers, and a more powerful advocacy platform are all in development.
Joining now places you at the centre of that growth. You will help shape the future of Australian design from the inside.
