We are infinitely proud of all our winners - the region’s top talent.
With thundering applause, endless accolades, and laughter, we joined the region’s top designers and architects to celebrate the winners of the id Design Awards 2018.
Along with their gorgeous trophy from iittala, they carried the praise of our world-class jury, including Marco Piva, Ludovica + Roberto Palomba, Keiji Takeuchi and Jean-Philippe Nuel. Their guidance, intuition and talent allowed for the almost impossible task of navigating a seemingly endless number of entries from talented and committed regional designers and architects.
