It seems to be Awards season, and the Australian Interior Design Awards finalists for 2010 do not disappoint. The awards recognise and celebrate interior design excellence, and is backed by the Design Institute of Australia. In the “category of “Environmentally Sustainable Design”, there are 22 fabulous finalists. Although not enough room to list them all here, I have included some of my favourites below.
