Dinosaur Designs, the only designer that I would whore myself for.



When I was 13 years old there was an exhibition in the Melbourne Museum of one of Australia's latest designers to go international; Dinosaur Designs. The exhibition was full of brightly coloured resin plates, bowls and bangles. While my mum and siblings went to the next exhibit I stayed it there, completely amazed by the works in this exhibit. I stuck with me until I was 16 when I got my first Dinosaur Designs piece as a birthday gift, a red and white swirled seed vase. It was the most precious thing I owned.

8 Years after my first encounter with Dinosaur Designs I now own 1 bowl, 4 vases, a ring, a bangle and a necklace, totaling well over a thousand dollars and they are still the most precious things I own. Nothing I could even own would be more perfect in my eyes than these pieces and I'm always dreaming of more. I want my future house to look like that Louise Olsen and Stephan Ormandy (2 of the three designers that make Dinosaur Designs), full of a mixture of bright and colourful pieces and delicate black and white plates.
