The one and only prize that celebrates the best exhibitions of Milano Design Week.
The Milano Design Award is back, an event that since 2011 has been selecting the best exhibition projects of the Fuori Salone prizing the most innovative ones and those able to promote a creative dialogue between product and setup, brand and designer.
Create and organised by elita, realized in partnership with Fuorisalone.it, Istituto Europeo di Design and Valverde and sponsored by Comune di Milano, since last year the initiative is also promoted by the biggest companies linked to the Fuorisalone: 5VIE art+design, Brera Design District , elita - enjoy living italy, Milano Space Makers, Porta Venezia in Design, Tortona Design Week, Triennale di Milano, Ventura Projects and Zona SantAmbrogio.
The award
The purpose of the Milano Design Award is to select, through an international jury, the best exhibition project of the Fuori Salone.
Many are the criteria leading to the choice of the winner, among which are concept, technology, storytelling and engagement, which represent some of the awarded categories.
Among the novelties of this year is the presence of four new awards: Press Choice, assigned by a jury composed by representatives of the international press, The Unicorn for the most innovative and disruptive installation and two connected Lifetime Achievement awards (designer and company).
This year the careers award, relating to the history of the Fuori Salone and assigned by districts, will be assigned to Cappellini as historic company in the design industry and to Tom Dixon for his work as designer.
