Renowned for its partnerships with acclaimed designers, this initiative saw Designer Rugs work with three Australian artists, Derryn Tal, Tracie Worth and Mark Lobert, who each produced a number of artworks to showcase alongside their original rug designs.

Curated by Interior Designer, David Anderson, the night brought together lovers of design and art with a percentage of profits from works sold donated to Smile Foundation.

Each piece from the Designer Rugs Art & Rug Collection can be purchased as is or custom sized and coloured to suit any space.
