Call for Submissions: ADD AWARDS 2016

The second edition of ADD Awards, the international professional award for architects, designers and decorators, returns beginning in September 2016. This year, it will be even more convenient to upload projects and work with the online platform. This year, both completed and conceptual projects created in 2015 and 2016 can take part in the award and be judged by the international professional jury board. A Star-studded jury board will select the best projects in 7 main categories:

  1. Urban Real Estate
  2. Country Residence
  3. Townhouse
  4. Business Property
  5. HORECA
  6. Retail
  7. Product Design
  8. Urban & Landscape Design

The important change is an opportunity to upload conceptual projects in every main category, creating opportunities forthree winners in each category:

  1. The completed project with the highest score by the professional voting. 
  2. The conceptual project with the highest score by the professional voting.
  3. The winning project by the public voting

The completed project with the highest score will be selected for the ADD AWARDS 2016 Grand Prix. The grand prize is a trip to the international fair iSaloni 2017 in Milan.

All entries to the competition can take part not only in the main categories, but in the special categories established by the award’s partners as well – one of which is the brand category. To participate in it, you can upload the completed projects where the brand’s products were used.

The brand nomination was established by the German sanitary ware manufacturer Duravit, which will present a trip to the Duravit Design Center designed by the famous master Philippe Starck in Germany for the best usage of their products in the bathroom interior.

Taking into account participant feedback, comments from the jury board, and personal experience from last year, the ADD AWARDS Organizing Committee has developed a new online platform. Firstly, the project created by the team will be included in the portfolio of every author who worked on it. Secondly, retaining restraint and minimalism in design, the website is adapted for all screen resolutions, meaning readers can now vote for projects even from their smartphones. Thirdly, it has become easier and faster to upload large quantities of HR-images. Moreover, the changes allow will optimize the website efficiency, increasing stability at peak loads, for example, during the public vote.

The ADD AWARDS 2016 dates:
14.09 – 23.10 — acceptance of applications for participation
24.10 – 30.10 — moderation
31.10 – 13.11 — professional voting: experts

The ADD AWARDS 2016 Ceremony traditionally will take place in the middle of December.
