Announcing the shortlist for 2021.

Now in its 31st year, the Design Week Awards are the leading accolade in the design industry, catering for every area of commercial design. Showcasing the best work from across all design disciplines, the Awards give outstanding designers the widespread recognition and rewards they deserve.

We are delighted to unveil the 2021 shortlist. Take a look who made it here.

With so much uncertainty around live, real world events this coming year, we will celebrate the award winning work across Design Week and its online channels, rather than through a live event. The winners will be revealed on Tuesday 29 June at 10AM BST.

It’s always hard to quantify the hard benefit of winning awards, but in this case it’s definitely opened doors, started conversations and led to some interesting opportunities. In other words, exactly what I hoped it would do.

We took a big risk on the rebrand work we did on ITV by tackling it all inhouse, with a tight deadline and ambitious deliverables. Despite this the whole team put their heart and soul into it so receiving such a great award was a rich reward for us all and made it all worthwhile.
