The Rigg Design prize, formerly the Cicely and Colin Rigg contemporary design award, is the highest accolade for object and furniture design in Australia. Every three years the prize is awarded to an Australian designer who displays outstanding creative achievement in contemporary design.
Curated by the department of contemporary design and architecture, the associated exhibition showcases work from seven designers. Adam Goodrum, Brodie Neill, Daniel Emma, Kate Rohde, Khai Liew, Korban/Flaubert and Koskela, and the weavers of Elcho Island Arts are all known for producing interesting and compelling object and furniture design.
