Top 25 design entries in Dell Design Studio's 'Make it Yours' competition

In a bid to bring some fresh designs to its Studio range of notebooks, Dell held a 'Make it Yours' competition, giving Aussies the chance to design a notebook lid.

The winning design will be featured on a Dell Studio notebook. After countless entries were submitted over the last four months, Dell has announced a winner and is sharing the details of the top 25 entries. We've taken a look at the shortlist of Australian finalists.

1. Robyn Gough — Not Your Ordinary Coaster

This winning design from Hodgson Vale–based artist Robyn Gough pays homage to the careless laptop users of the world, featuring several coffee mug stains on a lightly tainted silver base.

The panel of judges — which included Stephanie Watson from the Australian International Design awards — awarded it top prize, which included a Dell Studio 15 (featuring the winning design) and $5000 in cash. Gough will be presented with her prize at an awards ceremony tonight in Sydney.
