Both the design field and DDA are constantly evolving. Therefore, in 2024, we have chosen a year of reflection. In this ‘year of connection’, we will focus on the rich history of DDA, highlighting young designers from the past and present. We will collaborate with ten designers who were previously winners or nominees in the Young Designers category.
The reason for DDA to innovate this year is a combination of developments within the design sector, the world, and questions from both designers and ourselves as organisers of the awards. In 2024, we will create space for reflection. We will engage in discussions with the design field, partners, critics, and other relevant parties about DDA.
