A Diploma of Interior Design and Decoration student, Isabella Wong, has won ‘Floored 2009’ – a major industry rug design competition by TAFE NSW and Designer Rugs Australia.

Challenged to design a 2x3m rug for use in a residential, hospitality, retail or corporate environment, Wong won a $2,400 rug from Designer Rugs, with her design ‘Archaic’ – a reproduction of Australian Landscape’s amazing colour palette into an abstract geometric artwork.

South Western Sydney Institute Director, Phil Cox said, “We are extremely proud and honoured to have had such a remarkable result and to once again have one of our students win the competition”.
