dear designboom reader,
after three fantastic gala events, held during milan design weeks in 2017, 2018 and 2019 – and a year of absence due to COVID-19 – THE DESIGN PRIZE returns with a slightly different edition in 2021. instead of our usual award ceremony, this year designboom honors ten amazing creative minds by traveling around the world to hand over the golden madonnina statuettes in person. we have already revealed most of the recipients of THE DESIGN PRIZE 2021, details of which you may find here.
oh, and did you know that we created our first NFT for the occasion? our prestigious trophy, designed by antonio aricò, has gone digital! check it out here.
thanks for reading!
