Win Prestigious Design Accolades and get featured on Who Design
Who Design is an editorial publication featuring good designs, superior products and projects worldwide with a focus on footwear. The easiest way to get featured at Who Design is to win a highly prestigious, international and meritocratic design accolade such as the A' Design Award. We generally feature A' Design Award laureates, since they are selected by a grand jury panel of international design experts, scholars and professionals following an academic blind evaluation process. Moreover, the A' Design Award takes the necessary steps to obtain the required publishing rights from its laureates, so we can feature the works without worrying about intellectual property.
For the A' Design Award, we especially scout the following competition categories, from which we feature works:
- Footwear, Shoes and Boots Design – Shoes, Sneakers, Sandals, Boots, Heels, Loafers, Moccasins, Wedges, Ballet Flats and More.
Typical entries that fit Who Design include shoes, sneakers, sandals, boots, heels and loafers, and many other kinds of work in the same spirit. The A' Design Award is open to all industries and especially welcomes footwear designers, shoe designers, boot designers, fashion designers, ergonomics experts, footwear brands, shoe manufacturers and boot manufacturers, as well as every other creator who has produced good design. If you are one of them, the registry is where our editors look first. Entries to the A' Design Award are judged anonymously by an international jury of academics, design professionals, journalists and entrepreneurs, on criteria such as innovative material use, aesthetic appeal, comfort consideration, durability assessment, environmental impact and market relevance. Your A' Design Award win is therefore a credible signal for our readers as well as for us. According to the terms of the A' Design Award, eligible winners are not required to pay contractually obligated winner fees to claim the A' Design Prize, so there is no hidden price tag between your win and your feature.
