the A’ design award and competition calls for creatives – architects, designers and innovators alike – to submit their best work. what makes the platform so unique is that creators can enter into over 100 different categories, including architecture, building and structure design; interior space and exhibition design; lighting products and projects design; furniture, decorative items and homeware design; vehicle, mobility and transportation design; and home appliances design. this is to ensure projects are submitted to their most relevant category as well as to aid the evaluation process by the international jury panel, which is made up of scholars, professionals and media members.
