Tristan Ceddia and Rick Milovanovic on why they decided to combine their practices to form TRiC

After striking a seamless collaborative relationship across multiple projects since 2018, Melbourne-based designers Tristan Ceddia (Never Now) and Rick Milovanovic marked the beginning of 2021 by officially combining their practices into one. We caught up with them to find out more about why it was the right time to form the playfully-named TRiC, as well as what the future might hold. EM: How long have you guys been working together? T: Formally since the beginning of 2021, but informally since 2018 when we first collaborated on the CHANGES Festival project. We both really enjoyed the collaborative process, and the outcome was positively received, so this experience naturally led to wanting to work on more together.
