The Compound Interest
Centre for The Applied Arts
Home to two galleries, a vintage motorcycle restorer, a boutique letter-press printer, a bespoke framer as well as several design, web and graphic studios.
Born of the flat-white sipping inner city of Melbourne, among trust-fund anarchists and working class Keynesians, where the only real form of socialism survives (romantic theoretical socialism), the Compound Interest is the perfect amalgam of idealist modernism and late capitalism.
A commune of creative peers and collaborators, named after a micro economic mechanism. The contentious thing about the applied arts are that they lie between other areas-Art and Commerce, Craft and Manufacturing, and most importantly between the speculative and the practical.
It's this weird in-between-ness that we like.
