Enter Europe’s best publicised Design Awards

The European Design Awards is the comprehensive annual awards organization celebrating the best of graphic design, illustration and digital design in Europe. A joint effort by 14 communication design magazines from across Europe, the ED-Awards is a brilliant way to publicize your work on an international level.

So, if you feel that your work is unique, then don’t forget to submit it to this year’s ED-Awards. The deadline for submissions is February 15, 2010.

Why are the ED-Awards so special?

1. The ED-Awards boast the most qualified jury around, composed of representatives from the leading European design magazines. They are design journalists and critics, whose daily work is precisely to recognise and promote the best of communication design internationally.

2. It is truly a panEuropean competition. Last year submissions came from 29 different European countries (with the top country submitting less than 20% of the total number) and winners came from 21 countries (with the top country achieving about 25% of total prizes). The jury members themselves come from 13 different countries.

3. The ED-Awards receive the widest publicity in the design awards field. Agencies and designers who excel here, get the best coverage available. The reason is simple: the ED-Awards are based on a network of design media, ie the means of communication themselves.
