Solid Lines, Australia’s first illustration agency dedicated to representing First Nations creatives, has won the Indigenous Design Award at this year’s Good Design Awards.

Developed by RMIT researcher Dr Nicola St John and Emrhan Tjapanangka Sultan (Western Arrarnta, Luritja and Kokatha) alongside the Jacky Winter Group, Solid Lines consulted with many First Nations creatives to ensure culturally safe and supportive representation and a business structure that gives back to community projects.

The Good Design Awards are the highest honour for design and innovation in the country and reward diverse projects across 11 Design Disciplines covering more than 35 categories and subcategories.
