Archiproducts Design Awards 2021
Now in its sixth edition, the Archiproducts Design Awards are back to celebrate excellence in international design. The synergy between producers and designers who have the means and talent to shape the creative process is again at the heart of the awards.
With its debut in 2016 and today internationally renowned, the ADAs are a true tribute to creativity, research and innovation.
The 2020 edition was born with extraordinary enthusiasm in reaction to the emotional and economic shock that involved the entire world of international production under the pandemic. This year, the intent is to continue encouraging and supporting work that requires ever more strength, ingenuity and sacrifice to face the challenges of the future.
This year, a group of the most prominent professionals in the Design industry will be virtually coming together to acknowledge the outstanding work of brands and designers worldwide. The international jury panel of the 2021 Archiproducts Design Awards consists of leading figures and key people among architects, designers, journalists, architectural photographers and creative directors, ready to set the global benchmark
in the field. All entries will be carefully evaluated. Among them, only the most inspiring and pioneering products will stand out as Winners: those objects that make people feel protected, celebrate diversity and move beyond the usual stereotypes.
De Castelli continues its partnership with the Archiproducts Design Awards. As for the 2019 and the 2020 editions of the ADA, the brand from Treviso produces the prize trophy that will go to the winning brands.
Conceived by MUT Design, the actual prize trophy is a sculptural object inspired by the Möbius strip: a metal sheet folded on itself to obtain a figure that shows the award logo. In its simplicity, this object represents the importance of the relationship between brand and designer: two distinct surfaces that become one side and border.
The designers of the winning products of the Archiproducts Design Awards 2021 will receive a monolith in black Marquina marble designed by Michael Anastassiades and produced by Salvatori, confirming the company’s partnership with the ADAs for the second year running.
Introduced during the 2020 edition, the icon-object tribute to designers is confirmed for this year’s new edition. The project is the same – a marble monolith inspired by the award’s logo, but in new total black.
