“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.
