Louise Olsen and Stephen Ormandy are artists, designers, creative directors and co-founders of Dinosaur Designs. Over three decades they have built and designed what is arguably one of Australia’s most recognised design companies. Olsen and Ormandy have boutiques in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, New York and London, as well as retailers around the world. Dinosaur Designs is primarily known for their resin jewellery and homewares, which are hand-made in their Sydney studio. The hand-made process ensures every piece is unique, it’s a philosophy of colour, form and texture.
Dinosaur Designs has 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.
