Rigg Design Prize

For the first time in the more than 150-year history of the National Gallery of Victoria, contemporary interior design was the focus of a major exhibition in its Ian Potter Centre.

The exhibition brought together ten interior design practices, who were invited to create a forty-square-metre purpose-built room as an entry to the Rigg Design Prize, which is awarded triennially. Themed “domestic living,” the participants’ responses offered diverse perspectives on ways of occupying and expressing residential spaces.

Melbourne-based practice. The design, which celebrates the ubiquitous table, is the epitome of a highly analytical, reductive and abstractive approach to design practice.
