About the event

Designer Talk & Tour | Rigg Design Prize: Next In Design
DESIGNER TALK & TOUR | RIGG DESIGN PRIZE: NEXT IN DESIGN

📍 The Ian Potter Centre: NGV Australia, Fed Square
🗓️ Sat 20 September
⏰ 11am – 3pm

To celebrate the opening of the Rigg Design Prize 2025 join us for a full day of floor talks featuring a number of the finalists from across Australia, hosted by NGV curators of Contemporary Design and Architecture.

Now in its tenth edition, the Rigg Design Prize is Australia’s highest accolade for contemporary design, awarded triennially to an Australian designer demonstrating outstanding creative achievement. In 2025, the prize turns its focus to the next generation, presenting Next in Design.

This year’s exhibition highlights early-career practitioners working across material disciplines including glass, furniture, woodwork, metalwork, textiles, lighting and contemporary jewellery, whose bold ideas and fresh perspectives are shaping the landscape of Australian design practice.

Join us for this rare opportunity to hear directly from the designers as they share the ideas behind their work in the Rigg, and reflect on what it means to be an emerging practitioner today.

The Rigg Design Prize is generously supported by the Cecily & Colin Rigg Bequest, managed by Equity Trustees.
