How will the young Filipino designers converge to help shape the future and deliver the best possible solution to common and underlying social challenges, at the AYDA Awards 2022?
AYDA Awards, previously known as Young Designer Awards was established in 2008. It was launched as part of Nippon Paint's vision to nurture the next generation of design talents. AYDA has now established itself as one of Asia's premier design awards reaching 17 geographical locations from around the globe, including Japan, Singapore, India and Turkey.
Entries for this year's competition are encouraged to show more about promoting human touch amidst a challenging world. Students are expected to incorporate colors as part of their design solution and at the same time never losing sight of aesthetics.
The current batch of design students are expected to be instrumental in shaping a new built environment as the world constantly evolves with the advancement of technology. This year's theme challenges the young designers to uphold diversity, remain humane and seek progress while holding on to one's roots.
Resilience, empathy, and sustainability should be present without losing extravagant and fancy designs. In this era of information overload, the idea of the new theme can be challenging but it is crucial to transform the conceptual design to reality.
What's in store for the winners?
Winners of the national competition (Philippines) will receive Php50,000 for the GOLD award, Php30,000 for the SILVER award and Php10,000 each for the TOP 8 Finalist. All those 10 winners will also receive internship opportunities.
