Australian label Dinosaur Designs was founded in 1985 by Louise Olsen and Stephen Ormandy. Propelled by a philosophy of colour and form, they expanded into homeware in 1995, working with glass, sterling silver and resin. Today, the duo works from their Strawberry Hills studio, where each piece is handmade for a unique finish using a patented resin technique.
Dinosaur Designs have released three collections with Designer Rugs over the past two decades, each featuring playful compositions of organic shapes and bold colour combinations, explored through textural finishes. With bold and punchy colour-blocked designs, the designs play with rhythms in line, shape, colour and tone.
Their first collection of twelve rugs released in 2006 have become an Australian design classic, and won an Australian Design Award.

Christine McDonald is a Senior Designer for Designer Rugs, with over 20 years of experience. Rugs are often inspired by nature, abstract and evolved, and Christine’s collection LØCAL definitely draws from this. Christine developed each design from a very personal aspect- the region of Wollongong, where she grew up and still lives to this day. The designs have been described as “looking through the clouds onto a field of pattern”, just like you would see from the panoramic view at Stanwell Tops. The aesthetic created by the LØCAL collection is further enhanced by the use of traditional, Nepalese hand knotting techniques. The time-honoured tradition of hand knotting Tibetan wool collides in a palette of colours, each sympathetic to the Australian interior.
COAL COAST named after the area that Christine grew up in; Stanwell Park to Port Kembla. The coaling industry has a rich heritage of this region of the south coast, New South Wales. It's an unique area of landscape that sits between the mountains and the Tasman Sea. This design inspired by seagull footprints on the sand, with a shibori twist.
