Each year, The Australian International Design Awards (AIDA) recognise top innovations from companies that differentiate their products and services through design.

Presented by Good Design Australia, it’s the country’s biggest design recognition program, encompassing products as diverse as cars, medical devices, cooking utensils, building tools, toys and furniture, all of which go in the running to receive the coveted Good Design or Design Award accolade.

“Promoting the value of good design among consumers and businesses is a key objective of Good Design Australia,” explains Brandon Gien, Managing Director of Good Design Australia.

“Hosting our first ever public exhibition of all finalists is an important step in raising consumer awareness of good design and positively influencing the behaviour of Australian consumers.”
