Just like the Faces of Design Awards, the Faces of Design TALENT Awards are based on your existing projects, and culminate in a presentation of the 25 most promising design talents. Their profiles will be distributed to over 1.000 key decision makers at more than 300 companies, including firms such as vitra, IKEA, the Richemont Group (including prestigious brands such as Montblanc, Cartier and Chloé), designers’ studios such as the Campanas’ and Bouroullecs’, and the design press.
In the first round of the Faces of Design TALENT Awards, you have the opportunity to present the best elements of your portfolio to the judges in a safe online environment, followed by a second round with our high-profile panel.
