OUR mission statement

MADE ON THE LEFT was founded in 2008 by independent designers with the intention to support Western Australian creative talent that was just starting out in the world.

Being on the left hand side of Australia no longer

means you'll be at a disadvantage.

Our aim is to support all creative designers and events showcasing independent labels. MOTL is a not-for-profit, non-partisan organisation. You may wonder why we promote other markets besides MOTL; it’s because it’s not about us, its about you; the buyers and sellers of indie wares. Here at the blog, you’ll discover up to date information about our latest market, the low-down on some of Perth’s emerging talents, other opportunities for artists and designers and a little bit of fun stuff too. It’s all right here… welcome!

The Dollar Shop – call for submissions



The Dollar Shop is a unique retail experience selling great design at affordable prices. Unfortunately it's in Sydney, not Perth but you can still submit products!

It is a collaboration between graphic designers Louise Helliwell and Alex De Bonis and supported by City of Sydney. All products in-store will be created by local artists, designers and creative types with the brief that nothing can be sold for over $20.

They are looking for a wide range of amazing products, for example: clothing, jewellery, bags, stationery, self-publishing, photography, posters, weird machines, instruments, kitchenware, illustration, music, craft, prints, things from far off lands etc. The product has to be designed/made/altered by you. It is a statement about making affordable design without selling yourself cheap.
