The British Design Awards 2010

Vote for your favourite home-grown talent for this year’s eagerly anticipated British Design Awards.

Feast your eyes on some of the most creative and imaginative design pieces to spring from a wealth of British talent. ELLE Decoration, in association with Casa Couture, Graham and Brown, and Charnwood, are celebrating Britain’s finest talent with The British Design Awards 2010.

The BDA’s are taking place for their ninth consecutive year and they continue to recognise British talent and interior designs that are both innovative and inspiring. British design has been transformed by designers who are challenging our perceptions of everyday objects and by a distinct move towards eco-friendly materials and ways of manufacturing interior products.

Among the nominees for Best British Design 2010 is designer Jake Phipps, whose ‘Stellar’ mirror earns its nomination for its stunning cut diamond look made from 750 tiny facets of mirror. Shortlisted for Best British Pattern 2010, Camilla Meijer’s ‘Roseflower’ wallpaper uses a fantastic bold floral print with an embossed fleece finish to create a blooming backdrop for your walls. An intricate, romantic wall hanging designed by Rob Ryan, Abigal Borg’s ‘Friti’ fabric, and Bluebellgray’s pretty linen cushions are also on the shortlist.
