The finalists of the 2009 Australian International Design Awards (AIDA) have been announced. The 73 products nominated as finalists are from a range of different areas – from a hearse to a battery-powered wetsuit to keep you warm.
The finalists are all in the running to win the 2009 Australian International Design Award of the Year or receive an Australian International Design Award or Australian International Design Mark.
“During the judging week, our panel thoroughly scrutinised 116 shortlisted products right down to test driving the cars, jumping on the springfree trampoline, and even wearing and washing the socks that claim to cool your feet,” said Stephanie Watson – Program Director for AIDA.
“Products nominated as finalists in this year’s Australian International Design Awards clearly demonstrate a well executed and thought-out approach to design,” Watson said.
The winners will be announced at a Presentation Night in Melbourne on Friday 29 May, 2009.
