Overview
The Design Masterprize (DMP), in its third annual edition, is a prestigious international design program dedicated to celebrating excellence in product, communication, and graphic design. It aims to highlight outstanding designs and their creators by offering global recognition, networking opportunities, and various promotional benefits. More than just an award, DMP provides a platform for designers to elevate their work and gain international exposure, enhancing their creative endeavors. Originating from the Masterprize organization established in 2016, which recognized pioneering spirits in architecture, interior design, and architectural products, DMP expands this foundation into product design, graphic design, brands, and communication. This expansion reflects a commitment to acknowledging innovative minds across a broader spectrum of design disciplines. The mission of the DMP Award is to showcase and honor the dedication, skill, and visionary approach of designers who bring exceptional ideas to life. The program covers a diverse array of design disciplines, including product design, communication, and graphic design, thereby reflecting the multifaceted nature of the creative industry. An esteemed jury panel evaluates projects based on design excellence and creativity.
