The awards offer prestige, publicity and international recognition to A’ Design Award Laureates through the coveted A’ Design Prize system. The best products, projects, and services worldwide that demonstrate superior design, technology, and creativity are rewarded with the A' Design Award: the symbol of excellence in design and innovation. There are five different levels of distinction; Platinum, Gold, Silver, Bronze and Iron A’ Design Awards are distributed annually in all design disciplines.
Organized as a way to showcase excellent designers from around the world, the A' Awards are peer-reviewed and anonymously judged by an influential jury panel of over 200 experienced scholars, important press members, and experienced professionals. Each jury member is required to sign a jury agreement and follow a code of conduct. In addition, jurors may not be employees of the participating companies to avoid conflicts of interest. This jury process has been designed to promote a more fair and equitable awards process, with no single juror exercising undue influence on the results of the awards.
Winners of an A' Design Award receive a trophy alongside a host of other benefits: a certificate, inclusion in an exhibition, inclusion in a yearbook publication, winners' badges, an exclusive interview to be featured on the A' Design Awards website, inclusion in the world design rankings, an invite to a gala night hosted by the Award for networking, feedback notes from the award jury, and participation in an extensive PR campaign, to name a few. The A' Design Award & Competition also has a network to reach millions of design-oriented audiences worldwide. A’ Design Awards winners have been mentioned in the press over 22,000 times and have been seen directly at the A’ Design Award website over 90,000,000 times.
The submission period for the A' Design Award closes on February 28. You can submit your designs here. After the winners are announced on April 15th, a selection of architecture-related winners will be featured in a post right here on ArchDaily.
