Selected 2027 Winners and Shortlisted projects may be featured in the next edition.
The VAND Design Award is evaluated by an international jury of experienced designers, creative directors, educators, and design leaders from around the world.
The jury brings together different disciplines, perspectives, cultures, and generations to evaluate design beyond personal taste.

An influential American designer specializing in iconic branding. Most famous for the 1994 FedEx logo, his professional achievements are permanently exhibited at the Cooper Hewitt Design Museum.
Every submission is evaluated through a structured judging process.
The jury considers the quality, clarity, relevance, innovation, craftsmanship, responsibility,
