Ukrainian Design: The Very Best Of

HOME UKRAINIAN DESIGN: THE VERY BEST OF JURY

The works of Ukrainian designers are judged exclusively by an international jury, which annually brings together leading representatives of design from over 20 countries worldwide, including Europe, Asia and America. This format ensures a multifaceted perspective on contemporary design.

The jury comprises renowned professionals – designers, art directors, architects and other creative experts with experience judging global industry events and holding prestigious awards from international festivals.

Participants' works will be evaluated by five dedicated jury teams, each specializing in a specific category:

Graphic Design & Branding jury team
Digital Design
TV/Promo & Video Motion Graphics
Product Design
Environmental Design

The members of each jury team will be carefully selected based on their expertise, professional experience and achievements to ensure fair and high-quality evaluations.

Each team will identify the best works in its category, selecting projects that reflect contemporary trends and set new standards in design.
